What I Watched Today
(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)
General Hospital
Chase does squats, and let’s just say it. For someone who’s been bedridden for so long, he’s in amazing shape. I’ve never seen him do one crunch, yet he’s got abs for days. He remembers telling Willow that he’s grateful for having had her in his life, and her asking, how many people can say they loved as deeply as they did? He flashes back to her taking off her ring and giving it to him. He picks up the ring, and there’s a knock at the door. Finn comes in, surprised to see Chase is walking. Chase says, look, ma, no hands. Finn says, it’s incredible. Just one question. Why didn’t Chase tell him?
Willow sees Michael is working from home, and he says, the luxury of being his own boss. He asks where Wiley is, and she says, at the pool (🍷) with the nanny. He says, it’s a good day for it, and she agrees. He tells her that he missed her last night, and she says she missed him too. She hopes he understands… He says, that after returning Chase’s ring, she needed a minute? Of course (🍷) he understands. She says she did need a minute, but what she really needs is him. He says she’s got him for as long as she wants him, and she says, that could be a long time. He says he’s counting on it.
Brook comes in with Bailey, and says she’s getting heavy. She needs to lay off the formula. Just kidding. She tells Bailey to get as big and strong as she can. Show the world what she’s got, but first, it’s nap time. Where’s her favorite binky? Don’t tell her they lost it.
At the MetroCourt, Maxie puts Bailey/Louise’s binky in her pocket. She sees Carly, and says, just the person she’s been looking for. She was batting ideas around for Carley’s wedding. How does she feel about motorcycle ice sculptures?
In the home of the moss bowl 🎍, Jason asks Josslyn if everything is okay. She says, yes… no. Does he have a second to talk? If he doesn’t, it’s no big deal. He says he’s good, and sits down. He asks, what’s going on? and she says she had dinner with her mom and dad last night. She’s sure Carly told him, and he says, she mentioned it. How’d it go? She says, it was terrible.
Britt is staring at her tablet at the MetroCourt, when Obrecht sits with her. She asks what has Britt so enthralled, but Britt doesn’t know if that’s the word. More like resigned. She shows Obrecht Jason and Carly’s wedding announcement, and says, they’ve set a date.
Phyllis busses some tables at the Tan-O, and Sonny says he has it covered. She says she was going stir-crazy at the house. All those well-meaning neighbors stopping by, and the clinic insisted she take a week off. Can he believe that? Don’t they know work is the best thing for her now? He says, her neighbors and co-workers care about her, and want to help her like he does. Phyllis says if Sonny wants to help her, then tell Nina how much she means to him. Trust her. Nina could be taken away tomorrow, and all he’ll be left with is regret.
Outside, Peter thanks Nina for letting him crash at her place last night. She says, as if she had a choice; he threatened her nephew. He says he would never hurt James, and she says, no. He’d just take James away from his mother. He says, like Louise was taken from him. An eye for an eye, as they say. Or in this case, a child for a child.
Chase says he didn’t tell anyone about his progress, especially Willow. Finn says, he wanted to surprise her? and Chase says, that was the idea, but he found something out, and decided to keep it from her on purpose. They sit down, and Finn asks, what’s happening right now? Chase says, Michael and Willow are together, and Finn says, together together? Michael, Chase’s best friend, and Willow his wife? Chase says, not anymore, and picks up the ring. Willow wants an annulment. Finn asks, since when? and Chase says, since she’s in love with Michael.
Michael says it’s okay if Willow doesn’t want to talk about it, but she says, it’s fine. Once they were alone, and faced that it was time to put an end to all the lies and all the pretending, the anger and resentment washed away. The pain was still there obviously, and the sadness over what was lost, but she and Chase went back to where they started. Two people who only want the best for each other. He says, sounds like Chase, and she says, doesn’t it? He wonders if they can all be friends again, and she says she thinks so. Not now, while everything is still so fresh, but she hopes eventually. He hopes so too, and she says, it’s strange, isn’t it? Not having to hide anymore. They can just be them; Michael and Willow. He says, or Willow and Michael; ladies first. She says, if he insists, and Brook asks if she’s interrupting.
Carly reminds Maxie that she wanted understated, and Maxie says, remember the wedding of the century? Carly says, no melting motorcycles, and Maxie says her ice sculptures don’t melt, but whatever. Color palette? Carly asks what Maxie is thinking, and Maxie says she was thinking yellow. Not sunflower yellow, but a soft butter yellow, with hints of cream. They could pick it up in the bouquets and boutonnieres. Carly says she knows how much Jason loves a boutonniere, and tells Maxie how much she appreciates it. Maxie says, really? She got the feeling Carly and Jason were humoring her, but Carly says, not at all. For some reason, this has been hard. Not marrying Jason – that’s the easy part – but it just feels really weird, and she doesn’t know why. Maxie says she does.
Josslyn tells Jason, it was just so awkward. Hey, wait. Where the hell is the moss bowl 🎍? There’s a bowl of floating flowers on the kitchen island. Where do I protest this travesty? Josslyn says, they were fighting in this weird passive/aggressive way she’s never seen before. She knows they had a huge custody battle when she was a toddler, and Jason says, but she has no memory of that. She says, zero. The only thing she’s ever known is them being the poster couple for divorced parents. Even during the times her dad was furious at Sonny – and she means steam coming out of his ears furious – her mom and dad still shared a mutual respect for one another. Jason takes it last night wasn’t like that, and she says, they literally couldn’t hide their resentment. The only reason she could think of was because her mom’s marrying him.
Obrecht says she’s so sorry, and Britt asks, why? Obrecht says, because she got her heart broken. Britt says her heart is still intact, and Obrecht says, and not by a man she can easily write off. She can tell Britt had real feelings for Jason, and she lost him, and that hurts. She wants to help Britt somehow. Britt says she’s hurt, and angry, and doing stupid things like making speeches about toothbrushes that she won’t bother Obrecht with the details of. But does she wish none of it happened? It’s a shame it didn’t last, but that doesn’t make any of it less meaningful.
Nina and Peter go into the Tan-O, and Sonny introduces Phyllis to Peter. She says, he’s the author, and Peter says, Peter Sinclair; it’s a pleasure to meet her. They shake hands, and Peter says he’s so sorry to hear about her husband. Nina told him about Lenny last night. Sonny says, he was with Nina last night? and Peter says he spent the night at her place. Nina says she has the room, so the least she could do was offer up her couch. Peter says, it’s very fortunate that he ran into someone that he not only knew, but was sympatico with. Phyllis says, sympatico? and Sonny says, Peter and Nina both lost children. Peter says he thinks he can speak for Nina when he says neither of them wants to experience anything like that ever again.
Finn tells Chase, he feels like an idiot. He had no idea; he was so focused on other things. Chase says, like saving his little brother’s life? and Finn says, amongst other things. Willow seemed so loving and supportive. Chase says, she’s still both those things. She’s just not in love with him anymore. Finn asks why she didn’t just tell Chase, and Chase says, when would have been a good time? When he collapsed and was on the brink of death, or when he could barely walk, then couldn’t walk? It was just one thing after another. Finn says, okay. What’s Michael’s excuse? It’s a pretty crappy thing to do to a buddy. Chase says he was pissed off, but once he thought about it, Michael and Willow were married. They’re co-parents to Wiley; something Chase put in motion, by the way. They fell in love. They wanted to tell him, but there was never a good time for it. It was downright awful. Not because of Michael and Willow, but… Finn says, because of Peter. Chase says he wishes it was some trashy affair. Willow lying and running around behind his back, but it wasn’t like that. And that’s the part that hurts the most.
Willow says she can take Bailey to the nursery if Brook and Michael want some privacy, but Brook says, Bailey had better get used to the drama in this family. She asks how Chase is, and Willow says, hurt, sad; they both are. But they actually ended up in… Good is the wrong word. The better place. Brook says, how very Chase of him, and Willow says she knows Brook and Chase are close. She just wants to say for the record that this was a colossal mess, and it was all her fault. Michael says it wasn’t even close to being all her fault, but Willow says she should have told Chase the truth a lot sooner than she did. She hates that she didn’t have the courage to. Brook says, she was just having a conversation about this. Don’t worry; no details were exchanged. Sometimes in life, you’re faced with a crazy situation, and no matter what your intentions are, you’re forced to live with it. Should Willow have told Chase the truth? Maybe, but when? When Chase was dying, or when he thought he was never going to walk again? Willow messed up, but it’s clear it was out of care and kindness, not selfishness. Willow says, that’s very generous, and Brook says, it’s Chase they’re talking about. He will find the grace to see it for what it is. Maybe not today, but he will. Willow says she’s hopeful for that too. Brook says, if they could all be so lucky, and Michael asks what she means. She says, Chase could have been more volatile, someone you don’t know how they’re going to react if you cross them. He asks if she means like every single member of their family, and she says that’s exactly what she was thinking about.
Maxie tells Carly, it’s one thing to know you’re getting married, and be happy about it even, but it’s a completely different thing to contemplate spending the rest of your life with someone you didn’t know you were going to spend the rest of your life with. Carly says Maxie is right. She needs to change her perspective. This is an adjustment, but she’s still marrying Jason, and it’s still going to be wonderful, and it will reflect that. It just needs to be significant. Maxie says, but understated, and Carly says, that’s where Maxie comes in. Maxie asks if she’s thought about her vows. Does she want to go traditional or write them herself? Does she want Maxie to write Jason’s? Carly suggests they stick with traditional. If she gets up there and says what Jason means to her, they’ll be there all afternoon. Maxie says, traditional it is, but it’s going to be a wedding to remember. Carly says she has no doubt about that.
Britt tells Obrecht, typical, right? She finally finds the perfect guy, and it turns out he’s bonded for life with someone else. Obrecht says, someone woefully inferior, and Britt says, maybe. Obrecht says, definitely, and Britt says, Carly is a lucky woman. She thanks Obrecht for her support, saying, it means a lot. But while she’s pissed off and hurt, and all of the other things, she’s not sorry, and that feels really good. When her other relationships ended, she was left with this feeling of regret, of second-guessing what she did, and wishing she’d been different, better. But not this one. And that is something to celebrate. Obrecht tells her, if she says so, and Britt says she does. Come on. Lift her glass. Obrecht does, and Britt says, there you go. Cheers. Obrecht reluctantly clinks glasses with her.
Josslyn doesn’t understand why Jax has a problem with it. Yes, Jason is in the business, but he’s a good person, and Jax knows that, so she doesn’t understand why he’s acting this way. Unless he’s flat out jealous. He’s still in love with her mom, and can’t admit it. Jason tells her to listen to him for second, but she says, let her get this out. She loves her dad with all her heart, but he’s just wrong about this. She’s so happy Jason is marrying her mom. Josslyn doesn’t think there’s another person on earth who’s better for her, or better to her. She didn’t always understand that. At first, she was too young, then he was gone all those years, but when he came back, and she saw how happy he made her mom and how her mom trusts him, she hopes that makes up for everything else. She just feels bad that, for the first time – that she’s witnessed anyway – her dad is being a jerk.
Phyllis says she’s so sorry for Peter’s loss. She wishes she didn’t know that pain, but she does. He says she’s lost a child as well? and she says, her daughter. He says they always wish they could turn back the clock, don’t they? and Nina says, but unfortunately, they can’t. He says, but fortunately, they can take solace in other people who understand their pain. Sonny asks how long Peter is staying, and Peter says, that depends. Thanks to Nina and her hospitality, he was just passing through, but thinks he might stick around for a while. In fact, they’ve been discussing a project of mutual interest. Sonny asks, what kind of project?
Chase tells Finn, Willow wouldn’t have an affair. She’s not a cheater. Finn says he wouldn’t peg her as one either, and Chase says, so if she’s with Michael, that means she loves him. Having been loved by Willow before, he knows how lucky that makes Michael. He can’t even say Michael is undeserving; he’s a good guy. He knows Michael didn’t set out to hurt him, but it happened that way. Finn says, wow. Chase is being way more forgiving about this than he thinks he’d be. Chase asks what choice he has, and Finn says, being angry as all hell. Chase says, he was angry, but now he’s just sad. Sad for what was. What he and Willow had was gone, and he misses it, but in the end all he wants is for Willow to be happy, and she is. Finn asks what Chase meant about setting this in motion, and Chase says, when he and Sasha lied. Finn asks if Chase could go back and do things different, would he?
Brook says, speaking of family, can they discuss how Michael gave Austin the keys to the kingdom? Michael asks what he was supposed to do, and she says, destroy the evidence, shred it, basically anything except what he did. He says, she does realize there’s another copy of that memo out there. Doing something shady would only come back to bite them. She says he gave Austin a leg to stand on, and Michael says he did, but it doesn’t prove his case. All it proves was that grandfather had a conversation with his lawyer. It doesn’t say anything about a will being drafted. It doesn’t say anything about something being signed. People have wills drawn up all the time, but without a signature, it means nothing. She asks if he thinks the judge will rule in that direction, but he doesn’t know. He does think it’s better to be transparent; it makes damage control that much easier. Willow watches this conversation like she’s at a tennis match, and Michael says he knows Brook cares because she wants her father to be head of ELQ, and he gets that. That’s why when she did all that stuff with Bailey and the shares, he stepped aside, and he thinks it worked. He thinks they can retain control of ELQ. I’m confused as to why this is even an issue, since it’s not like Edward would have left Jimmy Lee with 51%. He says, what would be the worst thing? and Brook says she can’t tell if he’s joking or not. He says he hates to admit it, but Valentin is a good CEO. They’re all making money, ELQ is in the black, and whether or not she likes it, Valentin is part of this family now because of Bailey. So if Austin gets those stocks, and votes Valentin in, would it really be the end of the world? (Another good point.) It’s certainly not worth the backlash of doing something unethical. He knows she doesn’t see things this way because of her father, and Brook says Michael is giving him way too much credit.
Maxie joins Obrecht and Britt, and Britt asks when she got back. Maxie says, yesterday, and she’s been non-stop busy ever since. Obrecht asks if her time in Texas was healing, and Maxie says she’s never going to heal completely until Louise is home, and Peter is behind bars, but yes. Being with the family helped. So did seeing Nina. Obrecht says, she saw Nina? and Maxie says she stopped by Nixon Falls. She was hoping to spend more time with Nina, but Nina convinced her to come home. Britt tells her, welcome home, and asks what’s kept her so busy. Deception stuff? Maxie says, that, and she’s up to her eyeballs planning Jason and Carly’s wedding. Obrecht says, it sounded like she said Jason and Carly’s wedding, and Maxie says, because she did. Obrecht asks if she’s lost her mind.
Jason says Josslyn’s dad loves her, and he’s concerned about her. He’s not going to lie; he has every reason to be. The life he and her mother lead isn’t a normal life. She says, that’s one way to put it, and he says, Jax is allowed to have a problem with that. That being said, he thinks marrying her mom is the right thing. Nothing her dad does is going to change his mind or her mom’s. She says, God no. Not that her mom has any doubts, but because her dad is acting this way, it would only make her more determined. He laughs, and says, that sounds like Carly.
Peter says, Mike doesn’t know the unwritten rule between author and editor. They never kiss and tell. Sonny says, and they don’t keep secrets. Peter says, is that so? and Officer Finchley comes in. He says he wanted to offer his condolences to Phyllis, and she says, it’s kind of him. He remembers Mike and Nina, right? He says, how could he forget? and she introduces Peter. He says he knows Peter.
Chase tells Finn, if he could do it over again, the selfish part of him would say yeah, because he loves Willow and wants to spend the rest of his life with her. But the way it turned out, the most important thing happened. Michael and Willow got Wiley. Finn says Chase made quite a sacrifice, but Chase says he doesn’t know about that. Finn says, if Nelle had gotten custody, it could have gone a lot of different ways, none of them good. Chase says, in the end, he guesses he would do it all over again, and Finn says he’s a good man. Chase says, please, and Finn says he’s not good at accepting compliments (pot meet kettle), but he’s a good man. Chase says, it runs in the family, and Finn asks, what now? Chase puts the ring on the table, and says, now he gets on with the rest of his life. He’s on the mend, and getting stronger every day. He wants to get back to work. He likes being a detective, and being a favorite uncle. Finn says he’s the only uncle, and Chase says, semantics. Finn says, that gives him an idea.
Brook says, Michael assumes she only wants to protect her father, and she does, but she also doesn’t like Austin. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Like at all. Michael suggests she tell them how she really feels, and she says, he showed up there like he was this nice guy who’s helping Maxie. Then, boom. Just kidding. He’s actually Jimmy Lee Holt’s son, and wants all of their money. Michael says he doesn’t want all of their money, and she says, sorry. He just wants his fair share. Grandfather exiled Jimmy Lee Holt for good reason, and she hasn’t seen Austin do one good thing that entitles him to be part of this family. The best thing would be to send him packing. Michael remembers Willow is there, and asks if she can help him out, but she says, actually, she’s with Brook on this one. Honestly, another thing I don’t get. They weren’t exactly welcoming, and I get that Brook is paranoid he’s going to remember her, but what the hell with Willow?
Maxie asks if there’s a problem, and Obrecht says, yah, while Britt says, no. Obrecht says, a big problem. Does Maxie not know Jason broke her Britta’s heart? Treated her like something he scraped off the bottom of his shoe. Britt asks if she and Obrecht did not just have the conversation they had, but Obrecht says, it’s principle. Her love and devotion to Britt as her daughter is one thing, but her disdain for that schwein and his hussy is something else. Maxie says, whoa, and Britt says, a little extra, right? Obrecht says Maxie shouldn’t be doing favors for those despicable people, and Maxie says, first of all, she’s sorry about Britt and Jason. Britt says, don’t be, and Maxie says, but she thinks, in their own way, Jason and Carly love each other. Obrecht says, please. If Carly truly loved him, she’d realize he was better off with Britt, and let him go. But Carly wants what she wants when she wants it. Who cares about the rest of the world? Britt says, you know who that sounds like? and Obrecht says, who? Britt says, us.
Jason tells Josslyn that he has to take off, but before he goes, he wants to say this. What’s going on between her mom, her dad, and him, is between the three of them. Her carrying that or taking on that weight is probably one thing they can all agree they don’t want. She says she knows, but it’s hard to separate. He says he gets it, but just be aware. The best thing she can do is be there for them, love and support them, and they’ll do the exact same thing for her, all in their own ways. She’s going to college. He can’t even believe it, but she needs to live her life, and take advantage of this opportunity. She says she knows, and she’s so excited… He says, but… and she says, but it’s kind of weird, because it’s the first thing she’s going to do that her mom can’t give her advice on. Her mom never went to college. She’s imagining what she thinks it will be like, instead of having gone through it herself. She guesses she never realized how much she relies on her mom’s experience. He says he gets it, and she’s right; her mom’s never been to college. She’s stepped out into a new overwhelming world, and made her place in it. She may not have college experience, but she’s faced a lot of challenges, and knows how to overcome them. And she’s behind Josslyn 100%; so is he. Josslyn tells him, she’s said it before, but it can’t hurt to say it again. She’s happy they’re getting married. He says, him too, and they hug. Note to self: A job as mob boss lady does not require a degree.
Peter says he doesn’t believe he’s had the pleasure, and Phyllis tells Finchley, Peter is new in town. Nina says, he’s just passing through. Always on the run, isn’t he? Peter asks if she’s trying to get rid of him already, and she says she just knows how much he’s wanted back home. Peter says, and home is… She tells Finchley , they knew each other in Port Charles, and Peter says, Port Charles, Manhattan, Los Angeles, Chicago; they’ve known each other so many places, haven’t they? He fingers the gun in his waistband, and Phyllis thanks Finchley for stopping by. She knows how busy he is. He says he’s just a phone call away, and Phyllis says she’ll remember that. He leaves, and Sonny says, isn’t it nice, knowing how many people care about her? Phyllis says, nice and exhausting. She asks if Sonny will take her home, and he says, absolutely. He asks if Nina will be there when he gets back, and she says she will. She tells Phyllis to get some rest, and Phyllis says she will. She tells Peter that it was nice meeting him, and he says it was nice meeting her too. They leave, and Peter tells Nina, she just made a fatal mistake.
Chase says, a camping trip? and Finn says, fishing, s’mores, hikes to the waterfall. Chase isn’t sure he’s hiking ready yet, and Finn says he can sit that out. He can help set up the tent. Chase says, Finn told him that Elizabeth and the boys are going, and Finn says Chase worked his tail off to get back in shape. What did he do it for? To show off his abs at the MetroCourt pool (🍷); it’s been done already. Get off his butt, and spend some time with his family. Chase says, he’ll think about it, and Finn says, he’ll take it.
Willow says, Michael is thinking about things from a business perspective, and that’s great, but in the time they’ve been together, she’s come to know his family; to love them and think of them as her own. She, too, gets major sketch vibes from Austin. Brook says, see? and Willow says she just doesn’t know if he has the family’s best interest in mind. She gets why Michael did what he did, and she’s not saying he’s wrong, but she agrees with Brook. Brook says she loves them as a couple, and Michael says, oh my God. Brook says, Willow is a good addition to the family. Willow tells Michael, that’s not to say she doesn’t have huge respect for him as a businessman, because she does… Brook says, no backpedaling. Willow is with her on this one. Jason comes in, and Michael says, perfect timing. He’s being ganged up on. Brook says, it’s Bailey’s nap time, and they have to find Yuri. She leaves with Bailey/Louise, and Michael says, he texted Jason for a couple of reasons. He wanted to give Jason a heads up on their new family member, Austin. Jason says, Monica filled him in, and Michael says, the other thing is – he takes Willow’s hand – he and Willow are together again. Willow says she ended her marriage to Chase, and Jason says, that’s great (which sounds so wrong); he’s happy for them. He’s actually glad Michael texted. There’s something Jason needs to ask him.
Carly comes into the kitchen, and I keenly feel the absence of the moss bowl 🎍. She says she’s been thinking about Josslyn all day. She feels terrible about what happened last night. Josslyn says, it’s okay, but Carly says, it’s not okay. Things got tense with her and Josslyn’s dad, and it was supposed to be about Josslyn, to celebrate her. She feels terrible, and doesn’t want the disagreement she had with Josslyn’s dad to affect Josslyn’s relationship with him. She doesn’t want it to affect Josslyn at all. She just wants her and Jax to handle their own issue, and for Josslyn to be the amazing college kid that she is. Josslyn says she already talked to Jason, and she’s good. Another great thing about Carly marrying him. For somebody who doesn’t speak a whole lot he gives good advice.
Britt says, not one of them can talk to being selfish; they’ve all had their moments. Maxie says, preach! and Obrecht says, humph! Britt asks if Maxie could do something for her, and Maxie says, anything. Britt says, make the wedding beautiful. Maxie says she’s on it, and Britt says, she never planned on having a happily ever after, but she thinks it would be great if Jason got one. Obrecht says, that much generosity, she can barely handle. One ounce more, and Britt’s spine will turn to pudding. Besides, the wedding can be nice, but maybe the band forgets an instrument, or there’s a hair in someone’s… Britt says, mother… and Obrecht says, nothing to ruin the day. Just a minor hiccup. Maxie says she’ll see what she can do, and they laugh.
Peter says, Nina is lucky the officer didn’t recognize who he was… despite all those clues she kept feeding him. She says, maybe he filed those clues away, and he’s checking up on Peter Sinclair as they speak. He says he hopes not, for her sake. One siren in this direction… She says, do not threaten her nephew again, and he says, she built a nice cozy life for herself in Nixon Falls. It would be such a shame if something were to happen to the widow Caulfield, wouldn’t it? Or better yet, her precious Mike. She says he’s bluffing, and he says, maybe, but does she really want to risk it? Sonny comes back, and we can tell he knows something is up.
Finn tells Chase to let him know what he decides, and Chase says he will. Finn asks if he’s going to be okay, and Chase says, yeah. Finn says, then get back to work, and leaves. Chase closes the door, and picks up rings.
Jason tells Michael that he and Carly set a date, and Michael says, congratulations. Willow asks, when’s the big day? and Jason says, September 17th. He was hoping Michael would be his best man. He can’t think of anyone he’d rather have by his side. Michael says Jason didn’t have to ask, but he’d be honored.
Josslyn tells Carly, she loves her dad – Carly says, of course (🍷) she does – but no matter his feelings on the subject, she’s thrilled Carly and Jason are getting married. She needs Carly to know that. Carly says she does, and it’s the perfect segue to their next topic of discussion – dress shopping. Josslyn says, for Carly? and Carly says, and for Josslyn. Her maid of honor needs to make a statement. Josslyn says, heck yeah, and Carly asks if that’s a yes. Josslyn says, no, because there was never any question. Of course (🍷) she’ll be Carly’s maid of honor. They hug and say they love each other so much.
Sonny asks if everything is okay, and Peter says, of course (🍷). He was just pitching an idea to Nina. A true crime story about a woman in a small town, not unlike Nixon Falls. She does everything in her power to save the people she loves. Is Nina interested? Nina says, she’ll consider it, and he says, fair enough. He’s going to take a walk; soak up the atmosphere. It might come in handy if she gives him the green light. Sonny says he’ll come with Peter, but Peter says, it’s not necessary. Sonny says he insists. He used to be a stranger there himself. Peter says, very well, and Sonny shoots Nina a look before they leave.
Britt thanks Obrecht for buying, and Obrecht says she’s paying? Britt says, considering the day she’s had, she thinks it’s appropriate. Obrecht says, now Britt is all torn up, and Britt asks if Maxie has time for a drink. Maxie says she wishes, but she can catch Britt up on everything in the elevator. Obrecht tells Maxie to give James a kiss from his oma, and Maxie says she will. Maxie and Britt leave, and Obrecht sits down to sign the tab. Her phone rings, and she sees it’s Nina. She says Maxie was just talking about her, but Nina says she doesn’t have much time. Is Obrecht alone? Obrecht asks, what’s wrong? and Nina says she has a problem she thinks Obrecht is perfectly qualified to solve. If Obrecht can’t for any reason, Nina will do it herself.
Outside, Sonny says Peter and Nina aren’t just business associates. Is he right? Peter says he’d also like to think of them as friends, but Sonny asks why he gets the feeling Nina doesn’t like Peter.
Tomorrow, Nikolas tells Ava that there’s always a silver lining, Scotty says it’s Austin’s ticket to ride, Jax says Josslyn isn’t coming within a mile of Carly’s wedding, and Sonny tells Peter, it’s probably time to get out of town.

One can hope. I was up way too late last night, watching All About Eve in the wee hours, like I haven’t seen it a thousand times. That one never gets old though. Tomorrow begins another of what I believe we’re calling the weekend again, and I’ll be hear with soap, a real estate finale, tea, and sympathy wise words. Until then, stay safe, stay self-confident, and stay not doing anything shady. It could come back to bite you.
