Ted King, in SID, talks about Carly coming to see Lorenzo in the panic room, "I'm thrilled to see her because I think she's coming to rescue me. But she's holding a gun when she walks in. That changes everything. I'm in the position she was in a few months ago. So she gets a chance to get revenge on me if she wants it. There have been a few disappointments for Alcazar, but he keeps coming back after every one. That's love, isn't it?"

Referring to their kiss, "Damage was done to the part of her brain that controls sexuality....and she makes sure that I know that. The way I think it plays out is that she's starting to be open about her real feelings and then, when things get too close between the two of them, that becomes her cover. That's when she says, 'I don't really feel that way. It's because of my brain damage. It's not really really that I have feelings for you.'.... But he's starting to know better."

[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] More in 2004 (based on excerpts of Elizabeth Korte previews from SOW)

[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Coming

Nikolas is charged with the murder of Cody. Korte explains, "Nikolas is caught in a real vice where he's innocent but all evidence points to him had motive."

"Cody was a con man working on Nikolas' staff. He lied to Nikolas and tried to steal the treasure... plus, other evidence points to Nikolas..." Nikolas has, "been framed by Zander, who used his leverage over Ric, to get Ric to do his dirty work and incriminate Nikolas."

"Emily stands by Nikolas, she is his strongest supporter... She's right there fighting for her man and Nikolas is determined to fight too. He's not a person who goes 'woe to me' he's determined to clear his name."

However, Zander's desire is to see Nikolas in prison--for life.

Posted by ChrisZ on SoapZone (ETA: It's supposedly spoiler, not spec):
The Haunted Star sinks after Zander plants a bomb on it.
Zander tries to save his unborn child when he realizes Elizabeth is on board, but dies in the process. Sage, Brian, Mike, Edward, and Lila all go down with the ship. If Edward recurs, he'll be a figment of someone's imagination.

Sonny will get wind of the paternity of Kristina before the sinking, and when the ship goes down, Alexis will use that opportunity to say Kristina was killed. Cameron will take Baby K out of town to a safer location.

Also, relationships between many of the key players will change as they make life-or-death decisions, and reveal who they REALLY care about saving first. Think Sonny, Carly, Jason, Courtney, Lorenzo, Ric, Skye, Luke, Jax, Sam, Nik, Lucky, Emily, and Elizabeth.

And look for Skye and Alexis to have their very first confrontation--as sisters. It won't be pretty.

Here are the newest scoops from Katrina at EOS:
GH

As you have probably already read, GHH2 broke the news or at least the rumor of what the "Cataclysmic Event" (already nicknamed the CE on message boards across the net) will be. Despite a tight lock down on leaks, scoops, spoilers and such like, this rumor has come about from good sources, but I'm going to be clear again that this is still in rumor status.

Piecing together what I've heard (the slight drip, drip, drip) from other sources with what GHH reports, this is what I'm getting:

Zander agrees to sign over his parental rights to the baby provided Ric works to frame Nikolas for murder. Ric agrees to the arrangement, Nik is arrested, but it turns out that Ric and Nik have been in cahoots together to set up Zander to sign away his paternity rights. Nik goes free and Zander is truly pissed (I mean, what's he going to do? It's not like he can yell "I'm tellin' " and go all ascurry to Scott Baldwin to turn Ric in for double dealing his double dealing). He grows a "bad Superman" 5 o'clock shadow, furrows his brow most menacingly and plots his revenge between grinding angry teeth and such. He plants a bomb on the Haunted Star and then realizes that Elizabeth and the unborn baby are aboard, rushing back to save them. The bomb explodes and the ship sinks, taking Zander, Brian, Sage, Mike, Edward and Lila to their deaths.

Additionally, supposedly Alexis learns that Sam knows that Sonny is Kristina's biological father and is going to tell him. She uses the sinking of the Haunted Star to claim Kristina was on board, then sends Cameron off with the baby to keep said baby out of the mob life that is sure to ensue if Sonny learns of the her true paternity.

Alexis later has even more on her plate as she learns that Skye is actually yet another daughter of the randy Mikkos and that they are sisters. I've heard that the idea of making Alexis not actually a Cassadine has been scrapped. Helena makes her return during the last few minutes of January 16th and will be bringing information that will turn the House of Cassadine on its ear.

Don't worry about Skye twiddling her thumbs for the weeks of Anthony Geary's winter vacation. When he returns, their fiery relationship will start right back up again as both actors and the writers are very interested in exploring it further. Geary is quick to stipulate that Skye could never take Laura's place, that, in fact, anyone but Laura is "just play," but that Skye is definitely one who could keep Luke interested.

On the John Ingle issue, I have been waiting for info on this and learned just seconds ago... absolutely nothing. I was told by an absolutely flawless source a couple of weeks ago (when I ran the "it's working!" column) that there were so many letters received on his behalf that they called and offered him a chance to stay. Other sites reported that the chance was that on a recurring basis rather than a contracted status. If GHH's rumors are true, he's still being written off and ABC's representatives "are not confirming or denying" his exit.

Also flying around the net (again) are rumors of Cynthia Preston leaving the show, some say by being pink slipped and some say by her own choice. These rumors have been around practically since day one and I'm only going to address this by saying that at this time, the rumors are totally untrue.

Another rumor that won't die is the one about Sarah Brown being approached to recover the role of Carly. Nope, didn't happen. Tamara Braun and GH have no plans at this time to part ways. Carly is in need of a lawyer in about a month, to be played by Marquita Terry. This is likely related to her desire to commit herself to a mental health facility (corresponding with Braun's vacation) to overcome her attraction to Lorenzo (Lord, lock us all up if that's crazy). It's rumored that the much adored long lost love of Lorenzo, Sophia, is being cast on GH. How will Carly feel when Lorenzo's head is turned in another direction?

Let's add one more to the pile. It came to my inbox that Blake Gibbons (Coleman) was told by GH that his services would no longer be required. Not true. Although his non-contract, recurring status does allow Gibbons ample freedom to pursue other projects, he is still expected to be making appearances here and there as very lovable, wry and oh so sessy Coleman.

Speaking of rumors versus truth, one FACT is that Stephen Nichols (ex-Stefan) WILL be having an event (Sunday night) at the GH Fan Weekend July 8-11th. Dare we hope?

In that vein, it is also true that another GH tradition, the Quartermaine Brunch, has been canceled for this year. The slot is open and another special event may be schedule in its place. The calendar is shaping up and EOS will be posting an "Essential Guide to the GH Fan Weekend" within the next two weeks. It will contain interviews with those who are setting up the event, a complete schedule of the events and helpful tips to ease your transition (if you're a newbie) into this wild and wacky GH world (a place that is not a place in a time that is not a time, trust me).

Rumors continue to fly, these from a very reliable source, that Maurice Benard has personally green-lighted the chemistry experiment between his character and Kelly Monaco's, curious to see what sparks can be generated. Although deeply wedded to the pairing of Carly and Sonny, he's also open minded and professional enough to know that sometimes a soap couple needs to be shaken up a bit to remain interesting. (Nay-sayers, go ahead and nay away. Just remember that nay is what the horses say! I'm tellin ya, this one is fer real) I'm also told that at this time, the future of Sonny and Carly's marriage is uncertain and to later be determined (ditto for Journey).

J. Robin Miller (ex-NuLydia) took her release from General Hospital in stride and is currently happily touring Europe with her sister.

In shocking, stunning, blinding detail, Soap Opera Weekly compiled a list of violent events that took place in soaps this year. GH required two pages to list all 120+ ("see other website as listing all violent acts on GH exceeds our web host storage limit"). Figuring a generous 260 episodes a year, that's a violent act every two days and 20 minutes or so. To check out the full listing, click here.

[img]smilies/rotfl.gif[/img] you're totally right. he's so mad that she's falling for him and G's jealous yet he's still all into her. grr, makes me so mad...
There's a Three Kings Day gift if I do say so myself, Mala!

Mala

Xio, that's the BRIGHT spot in all these spoilers. The fact that we still have Blake no matter what the hell is going on with Numb and MPZ and The Fuzzy Bunny Mobster and Our Lady of the Sacret Bullet Wound.

Thanks for all the new spoilers. I am, of course, ignoring them completely. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Houston

[img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Is this another name for Carly? [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] If it is I love it.

If not then who? I still love the name.

As for the spoilers, I have pretty much given up on GH so nothing suprises me anymore.

I won't even rant about Ric & Prince Ick scamming MPZ into signing away his paternal rights. I have become numb. No pun intended.

WildB

Unfortunately Coleman is not a bright enough spot for me to care about this show anymore. I am hating it more and more with each day. Today's only bright spot was that Zman was on, of course his father was a jerk as expected. I was glad Alexis at least helped him out.
I just really hate seeing Zander like this. I am so [img]smilies/furious.gif[/img] what they are doing to his character. And I agree that it is a horrible that he would put a bomb on a ship with people on it. I just do not ever see Zander doing that...no matter how pissed off he is.

Tanique33

can i just say I LOVE LOVE LOVE the title of this thread. it's just plain true. what happened to this show?

i do like justus, he is a bright spot. should sage die, that would be a good thing. it would be good to see the impact on lorenzo.

sam and sonny i'm not sure about. it seems a little forced at the moment. maybe it's just because i'm not really into sam yet.

i don't know what to say about this show.

WildB

Ok, Zander ends up in the hospital again???? What that Frell?? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Starrie

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!! I am so upset about that spoilers dealing with Kristina/Alexis! I like Alexis but lately she is making me so upset! I have waited since Alexis was with child to have Sonny find out about his baby, now after I have waited this long she is just going to send that baby that she has worked so hard for off into the arms of a man she has only known for about a year if that! Someone really give me a break and slap one of those writers please! When I read that stuff about Zander I almost cried!*tears* OMG why do they have to kill him! Why can't he just go off and then if wanted to come back he can! I am so upset my only light is Dillon and Gerogie if they could ever get back together maybe w/o Sage there,they will be able to!

WildB

New spoilers that sound more realistic.
This is on the front page of the Soap Town USA site.

"For two entire weeks (2/2 to 2/6 and 2/9 to 2/13) next month, a huge storyline will develop on GENERAL HOSPITAL… a “Towering Inferno”-type fire will ravage the Port Charles Hotel with the entire cast involved… changing storylines and characters forever (some not making it out alive). This will be the first time a story and production values of this magnitude will unravel on a daytime drama. CGI, special effects (including a helicopter rescue scene) and on-location shooting will all be used during the production process… making it exciting indeed!"




Well, sounds like Zander may go out better than we hoped, since it is a huge production and he will be one of the main characters I am sure killed off in it.

Starrie

To me it seems like they are trying to make us not like Zander before Chad leaves but I doubt that will happen.

T O B Y

So Zander won't be responsible for all those deaths? I can only hope.

WildB

We can all only hope. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

.:Soleil:.

That's definitely better... not that they still can't make this Zander's fault. Since he is, afterall, being AJed, he might just inherit the pyro fetish as well. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
