Making the Rounds at General Hospital - Difficult Decisions and a Haunting Conscience

Part of: Making the Rounds at General Hospital

Amidst grief and remorse over the death of his father, Jason made the ultimate sacrifice and accompanied Carly on a wasted trip to the Dominican Republic, while Patrick continued to romance Robin and Lulu still tried to unravel the mystery of Rick Webber's murder.

Gone but certainly not forgotten, Alan Quartermaine was a huge presence on last week's General Hospital. First, Lulu intercepted a registered letter to Luke from his estate, one that contained the answer she thought she wanted. It was, in fact, Scott Baldwin who killed Rick Webber. Though he stated in the letter he hoped Luke could understand why he kept it a secret, there was no excuse offered. If you ask me, it is this that makes the entire story weak. While they are presenting good reason for Scott to commit the murder, I see no reason why Alan would have kept it a secret, especially when Laura began to flip out over it. The pieces don't fit together — instead we're being spoon fed a forced together story.

The only good point has been Lulu and her new collection of suitors. From Dillon to Spinelli to Milo, and now the new Logan with mysterious connections to a father he never knew. In the news and spoilers section below are some tidbits which promise to make this would-be-connection love match truly explosive. Even though Lulu and Logan's instant sparks were fun to watch, I'm still rooting for a Dillon/Lulu do-over.

When Alan wasn't spilling secrets from the grave, he was haunting his sister. Tracy had the audacity, with Luke as her loyal sidekick, to change Alan's will, which gave the bulk of his estate to Emily and Jason's children, should he decide to have any. With Luke's help, the new will left tokens to the rest of the family, $250,000 to himself, and the bulk – including ELQ stock – to Tracy. No one believed that read will was actually Alan's last wish, but there was little evidence to prove otherwise. Immediately following the reading, Alan appeared in a ghostly form which can only be seen by Tracy (at this point).
