Maxie is still standing by Spinelli's side, taking care of him and nosing around way too much in Jason's business. I love her cavalier way and shallow approach, but being oblivious to the danger surrounding Jason isn't smart.
There were more developments in the counterfeit drug case today. Two patients were brought into the clinic who appeared to have been poisoned by their prescriptions. We also found out just how far Jerry is willing to go to stop Matt from learning details about the drug ring. After telling Sasha 'something bad' was going to happen to the clinic, we saw him planting a bomb in the waiting room. Sam walked in as he was letting himself out. Is she going to be smart enough to figure out Jerry is up to no good, or is she going to yet again be one of his victims?
Scoops, Spoilers, and Rumors:
Jax isn't going to forgive and forget this indiscretion so easily – if at all. That doesn't mean Carly won't sink to all kinds of lows to get him back. Some rumors are even suggesting she may find away to get pregnant by Jax via insemination.
Meanwhile, Kate will forgive Sonny and the wedding will go on as planned (big sweeps event here!). But remember the ominous bad luck sign of blood on Kate's wedding dress? Look for the actual event to have similar consequences. You know, it just wouldn't be sweeps unless a lot of people got shot.
Kate's cousin Olivia will also be making an appearance at the wedding. Some sites are suggesting that Olivia and Sonny were once intimate, and possibly had a child together.
While were talking about out-of-wedlock children, have you been wondering why Matt has had such an interest in the Drakes? It seems he's the product of an affair Noah had. It will all come to the surface when Matt is injured in the explosion at the clinic. Noah regrets the choices he made, and Patrick resents the lies and secrets. These two play off each other the best when the animosity is high, so it should be excellent viewing.

Connie, do you think they'll ever get off this mobster kick and return the show to more issues-oriented. I like Maurice Benard, and he's a great actor, but I think Sonny needs to go to jail, Jason should be killed or deposed, and we follow them on the way back up.
There was a great Aussie soap, years ago, called Prisoner: Cell Block H, that followed female convicts. It was soapy, but also more realistic. Ever see it?

I think for GH to turn away from the mob stories there would have to be a changing of the guard in the writing department. I read rumors not that long ago that if November sweeps ratings aren't higher that just might happen.
Agreed that Sonny and Jason need to pay (by the legal system and not by personal tragedy that is pushed to the back burner a week later.)
It's why I'm loving Night Shift this season. The new writers are really exploring some heavy medical-related stories, while staying true to the soap format. Who knew that would work hu?
No, Never saw Prison Cell Block H. Sounds interesting though.
