What I Watched Today
(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)
General Hospital
Harmony works with a patient at Spring Ridge, when Alexis walks in. She asks how Ryan is enjoying his afternoon excursion, and Harmony says Ryan is in his room resting. This is Greg. She says, she knows Ryan’s presence there concerns Alexis, but Alexis says it does more than concern her; it alarms her and fills her with dread. Every time she walks in there, she has to brace herself that he’ll be in there. Harmony says, and when Alexis sees him, is there ever any change? Ryan’s been reduced to an invalid; he’s no threat to anyone. Alexis tells her, so says every teenager in a horror film before the guy with the chainsaw shows up. Harmony says she’s not responsible for Ryan being there. She didn’t ask to be assigned to him. Her job is to care for him, so she’s going to do that to the best of her ability, but don’t mistake that for liking him or defending him, because she doesn’t. Alexis says, it would be easier to believe Harmony if she didn’t know how susceptible Harmony was to a certain kind of monster. This, coming from Alexis, of all people.
Dante swings a baseball bat, and Sam says, strike three. He says he didn’t know she was counting balls as strikes. She says he missed by a mile, and he says, he did, but he was distracted a little bit. She says she wonders why, and he laughs.
Chloe checks Drew’s wounds, and says he’s lucky. His ribs are only bruised, not broken. He says, the guards must be slacking. At least they spared his pretty face this time. It worked. She says she had to turn him in for stealing a pen, and he says, which gave them a reason to trust her. She says, he’s a Navy SEAL, right? Didn’t they teach him how to lock pick? Why didn’t he escape? He says, and leave her there? No way. She says he’s lost the pen, and he has multiple bruises. What do they do now? He says, get the hell out of there.
Josslyn sees Spencer at the MetroCourt, and says, hello, Spencer. Or should she call him Victor? He says she can’t possibly be mistaking him for his late, unlamented great-uncle, and she says, no. She was mistaking him for someone who had maybe grown up a little bit, and achieved some decency. Her bad. He’s taller, but he hasn’t grown at all inside. He’s still just as spiteful and dishonest as ever. He asks how she really feels, and she says she really feels like punching him in the face, but it would just give him another excuse to feel sorry for himself. He asks what she’s talking about, and she says, poor, poor, pitiful Spencer, with his trust fund, and his mansion, and his boarding school in Europe. He doesn’t get along with daddy, so that justifies him buying and using people, right? Getting Trina to keep his secret, and telling her that his name is Victor, and for what? It’s all just going to blow up in his face. Does he know why? Because the truth always comes out. Always.
Sonny looks around the bench for his phone, when Jax comes by. Sonny asks what he wants, and Jax says he’s just trying to spare the people who care about them as much pain as possible, and that includes Phyllis and Nina. Sonny says, there’s not going to be any pain once Jax leaves town, and Jax says, Nina hasn’t talked to him yet? Sonny says he lost his phone, came to look for it, and it’s not there, and Jax says, so he still doesn’t know the truth. Sonny says Jax makes that sound like a threat. He doesn’t give a damn about Jax’s truth. He just wants to find Nina, so they can get on with their lives. Jax says, it’s a little late for that. Always has been.
Nina tells Peter, just go. Leave them in peace. The longer he’s there, the greater the chance he’ll be discovered. Peter says he intends to leave, and soon, but she and Phyllis won’t be. In fact, the two of them won’t be setting foot outside the Tan-O again. Nina tells Phyllis, don’t worry. It’s going to be okay. She knows Peter. He’s just a big talker, but he’s really just a typical insecure bully. He’s going to crumble like a paper cup when Valentin alerts the police. He says, nice try, but even if Valentin did pick up on her feeble attempt to warn him, he’ll be long gone before law enforcement shows up. She and Phyllis, on the other hand, will succumb to a different fate.
Sam says, she thought Dante was the one who had thousands and thousands of hours of experience with baseball. He tells her, he thinks he said tens of thousands, and she says she thinks that time was wasted, because he has a serious flaw in his swing. He says, so she’s the expert now. He holds out the bat, and asks why she doesn’t show him how it’s done, but she says she’s not giving her tips out. Besides, her team is going to the championship, as she predicted. Where’s his team going? Nowhere. Cuz you guys got beat. He says, just like he thought – girl talk – and holds out the bat again. She takes it, and he pulls her to him. She says, not so tight, and stands behind him with her arms around him. She says, shoulders back… He choked up. He says, no, he didn’t, and she laughs, putting her head on his chest.
Drew asks, how many guards Chloe has seen, total? and she says she hasn’t kept count. Ten altogether? At different shifts. He says, any guess on nationality? and she says, they seem to be from all over. He says that could actually work for them, and she asks, how? He says, they’re mercenaries. That means they’re in it for the money. They’ll do their jobs, but they’re not going to risk their lives to stop an escape. A guard bangs on the door, and says, time’s up. Drew says they need to get the keys, and she says he took that beating; what’s a little more pain? and he says, what? She tells him to pretend to be dying, and pushes him on to the cot, pressing on his wounds. He yells out, and she tells him, louder. She calls to the guard, saying, she thinks Drew punctured a lung. They need to get him to a doctor. The guard comes in, and Drew writhes in pain on the cot. The guard says Drew can die for all he cares, but she says she’s pretty sure Russel cares, and whoever Russel works for. They think this man is valuable, and if he dies, who does the guard think they’ll blame? Drew takes note of where the keys hang on the guard’s belt.
Spencer asks how much Josslyn knows. Or should he say, think she knows? She says, Trina told her that he got back to Port Charles long before his family knew, and how the night he met Trina at her graduation party, he told her that his name was Victor. He says, so Trina told her, and she says, he spent a couple of days playing games; chatting her up, and mysteriously refusing to meet her friends or let her take his photo. But then Trina came up to her and Cam at the MetroCourt pool (🍷) and they introduced her to their old friend, Spencer Cassadine. She could have busted him right then and there – like she should have – but he let her keep his secret. He says things are complicated with his father, and she says, how convenient. He says, excuse me? and she says she doesn’t excuse him, and she doesn’t feel sorry for him either. It’s a shame he has a rotten relationship with his father, but other people have it much worse. They don’t have the luxury of a bottomless bank account, or a grandmother, who would drop everything to rush by their side. Which reminds her, how could he do that to Laura? How could he be in Port Charles for weeks and never try to see her? What was so important? He says it’s none of her business, and she says, when they were kids, that was his tell. When he said something was none of their business, that meant he was lying, hiding, or doing something he wasn’t supposed to. Is that still how he operates? Is that why he needed Trina to keep his secret? He says, Trina was just being a friend, and she says, no. He was taking advantage of Trina’s compassion to play mind games with daddy. He flirted with Trina to get her to cooperate, without ever once mentioning he had a serious girlfriend. This is still his fundamental problem. He has no idea what the word friendship actually means.
Harmony says she’s not asking Alexis to forgive or forget her involvement with Shiloh and Dawn of Day. Alexis says, considering what he almost did to her daughters, it will never be forgiven or forgotten. Harmony says, and she went to jail for that. She paid her debt to society, just like Alexis is trying to do. She starts to put some books away, and Alexis follows. Alexis says, that’s true. She’s not in a position to throw stones, while she sits there as an inmate. And she admits Harmony was helpful giving Nikolas those notes from Ryan’s correspondence. Harmony says she understands Alexis wants to help her nephew. Is everything all right with her nephew? Is that what’s bothering her? Alexis says, that, and other things, and Harmony says she knows better than to ask what those other things are, so she’ll get back to work. Alexis says, she has this friend who’s about to make a terrible mistake.
Jax tells Sonny, he’s just trying to minimize the damage, and keep Nina from being harmed. Remember that when he gets his memory back. He’s called Mike, but they both know that’s not his name. Sonny flashes back to kissing his watch goodbye, and says, Mike is the only name he remembers. The only name that means anything to him. He and Nina let go of the past. All he cares about is their future together. Jax says, the funny thing about the past is, you can run from it, you can even hide for a while, but eventually the past is going to catch up with you. And guess what? Today’s your day, Mike.
Nina says, Peter’s issue is with her, not Phyllis. Let her go. Phyllis takes Nina’s hand, and says she’s not leaving her. No way. Peter says, the loyalty between them is quite touching. Does she have any rope in the back? Phyllis asks what he’s going to do with rope, and he says, what does she think? Go get it. And some duct tape. Uh-oh. Duct tape is never a good sign. He tells her, hurry. Look hard, and look fast. If she’s not back in three… no, let’s make it two minutes, Nina’s blood will be all over her hands. Nina tells Phyllis, it’s okay, and Phyllis starts to leave, but Peter says, oh. Before she goes, leave all the cell phones on the floor. She takes one out of her sleeve, and puts it down. She starts to go again, and he says, all the cell phones. She takes another out of her pocket and puts it on the floor. He tells her that she’s on the clock, and she heads for the back. He tells her, remember, he has her gun from behind the bar, so don’t even think of being a hero again. I’m thinking, she could have a Howitzer in the back for all he knows. He squats down in front of Nina, and says, I thought she’d never leave.
Spencer says he’s sorry he doesn’t meet Josslyn’s lofty standards, and she says, right. Because it’s too much to ask him not to use people. He says he had a plan for how he was going to return to life in Port Charles. Meeting Trina wasn’t part of that plan. Meeting her was a total surprise. He thought he was going to lay low in town for a while, stay under the radar, until he figured out how he was going to deal with his father. She says, then he met Trina, and started lying his head off? and he says, besides calling himself Victor, when did he lie to Trina? She says, he told Trina that he’d meet her friends on 4th of July, but he knew if he did that, she and Cam would recognize him. Of course (🍷) he didn’t show up. He says, oh, all that, and she says, yeah, all that. He left Trina twisting, talking about some guy she met who never showed up. He says, Trina wasn’t like anyone he’d met at boarding school. They hit it off almost instantly. She says, that’s the definition of using. He saw Trina liked him, and that’s how he got her to keep the secret. He asks if Trina said she liked him, and she says, really? That’s all he got from this conversation? Another prop for his gigantic ego? He asks if Trina said those specific words, that she’s into him, and she asks why he cares. He says because he likes her too. In perfect soap timing, Esme joins them, apologizing for being late. She sits down, and asks what she missed. Josslyn says, a lot.
Drew howls in pain some more, and Chloe tells the guard, whatever’s going on with him is way past her expertise. They have to get him to a doctor; he might not make it. He says he’ll go get help, but she says they have no time. She’s a nurse. She can recognize when someone’s dying. He knows how important Drew is. If Drew dies, they’ll kill him too. The guard goes over to Drew, who kicks him, jumps off the cot, and knocks him down with a roundhouse kick. Drew checks the guard, and says, he’s out. He gets the keys, and gives them to Chloe. She unlocks his cuffs, and they run out; Drew closing and locking the door behind them.
Dante takes some swings, and Sam tells him, much better. He says, thanks, coach, and she says there is one more thing she needs him to work on. He says, what’s that? and she says, his home run trot. He says she’s really the one who should be practicing that, since she has something to celebrate. She says she does? and he says, the end of her parole. She says, every time she thinks about it, it reminds her of why she’s on parole. Because she rid the world of Shiloh.
Alexis tells Harmony, she doesn’t need to get into the details, but suffice to say, she can relate to him. He’s been trying to do the right thing, but the road to hell is paved, etc., etc. Harmony asks if that’s how she ended up in prison, and Alexis says, that’s what she tells herself, but the truth is, her best intentions were fueled by alcohol. Harmony guesses she could say she’s addicted to men like Shiloh. It’s a very hard habit to admit, or break. Alexis says she knows. She’s been known to fall under the sway of an unworthy man or two… or ten. Harmony asks what advice she has for her well-meaning friend, and Alexis says, the same thing she failed to do – stay out of it.
Sonny says it sounds like Jax is the one who’s running away from something. Or does Jax expect him to believe he came all the way out there for Nina’s sake? Jax says he’ll admit, he’s made mistakes. He thought he was doing the right thing at the time, and drove away people he cares about. Sonny says he should learn from that, and Jax says Sonny sounds like Alexis. Sonny says, who? and Jax says, a friend. She says he’s too much of a fixer, that one person can’t save everyone. And if you try, sometimes you end up getting burned yourself. Sonny says Jax should take her advice and go home, and Jax says he would, but this isn’t just about Nina. Sonny says, then what is it about? and Jax says, you and me.
Peter says, Nina really thought she could just run away from home, forget all her troubles, all the damage she caused, and start a shiny new life with a man who wasn’t even hers to begin with. Think of it this way. Now she won’t have to face Carly, and explain why she kept Carly’s husband all to herself. He starts to laugh, and says, if she thinks about it, he’s freed her from a world of grief. And if she’s lucky, maybe there’s a little corner of hell where she and Nelle Benson can be reunited. Wouldn’t that be nice? She says, you sick, twisted, son of a bitch. You’re baby is so much better off without you in her life. He says he’s going to find his baby, but her… The phone alarm goes off, and he says, she’s running out of time. He guesses Phyllis didn’t turn out to be that good of a friend after all. He points his gun at Nina, and Phyllis runs out, saying, don’t shoot. He says she’s cutting it a bit close, and Phyllis says she forgot where the duct tape was. Peter tells Phyllis to tape Nina’s hands behind her back, and then tie her to the chair; then he’ll tie Phyllis. Nina asks how Peter is going to find his baby while he’s in prison. He should get out of there while he’s still free. She’s sure by now Valentin has alerted Anna, and he knows what that means. The WSB is on the way. He says he doesn’t think they’re going to like what they find when they get there.
Dante asks if Sam wants to hit something, and she says she’d love to. Any mention of Shiloh reminds her of his connection to Peter, and how they were conspiring to hand Drew over to Helena. He says, that’s ancient history, but she says, is it? What if Shiloh knew who Peter August used to arrange for Drew’s plane to go down? He says, even if he did, Shiloh’s dead, and she says, there is someone else. Someone who was very close to Shiloh who is still alive.
Harmony tells Alexis, while it’s her job to look after inmate’s health, she’s always thought it included emotional well-being. Alexis says she’s not dying for a drink, if that’s what Harmony is thinking, but Harmony says she thinks Alexis is lonely, and there’s no shame in that. An occasional visit from family and friends doesn’t always help. Sometimes it makes things worse. Like when her nephew came with his girlfriend. Alexis says, what about it? and Harmony says, as Alexis recalls, she had a bad feeling about Esme. Alexis says, and Harmony has such good instincts about people. Harmony says she deserved that, but she does know trouble when she sees it. Why was she so interested in Ryan? Alexis says she doesn’t know. Some people are fascinated by criminals. Harmony says, fascinated is one thing, but from what she observed, Esme seemed to be upsetting Ryan. How does Alexis explain that?
Esme says Josslyn should know, she and Spence have no secrets. Anything Josslyn can say to her boyfriend, Josslyn can say to her. Josslyn says, anything she has to tell Spencer, she’ll say to Spencer, and Spencer says, Trina told Josslyn that he was in town before he told anyone else, and used a fake name and everything. Esme says, everything? and Josslyn asks if there’s something else she should know. Spencer asks if it isn’t enough that he made Trina keep his secret? Does she think he’s proud of it? Esme says, poor Trina. She’s such a… What’s the word? Josslyn says, human being? and Esme says, that’s two words. An idealist. She’s always looking for the best in people. Spend a few years in boarding school, and you’ll never be an idealist again; you become too jaded. But Trina? She must be so disappointed in Spence. How can she help him make it better? Josslyn says, Esme can’t. If Spencer wants to make things right, start by telling his father the truth. Spencer says, or what? She’ll tell his father for him? He’s sorry he doesn’t have a perfect relationship with his dad like she does.
Jax says, he and Sonny have their own history, but Sonny says he doesn’t see how. Jax is part of Nina’s past. Sonny is her present and future. Jax says Nina isn’t the first woman they fought over. Hell, she’s not even the second. Sonny says, enough with the hints. If they fought over women in the past, that means Jax knows who he is. Jax knows his name. What’s his name? Does he have kids, does he have a family? Don’t even tell him, because everything that comes out of Jax’s mouth is a lie. Jax says he promised Nina that she could be the one to tell Sonny who he is, but he’ll tell Sonny this much, there are people who have risked their lives to hold on to what’s supposedly his. Sonny says, what’s his is there in Nixon Falls with Nina.
Nina says she doesn’t know why Peter is going to all this trouble. He could have chartered a plane and been on his way to Mexico by now. He says, and just wave goodbye to her and Phyllis on the way? Ignore the fact they’re witnesses? He’s a fanatic about tying up loose ends. Nina says he has no time. Mike will be back. He says, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike. Doesn’t she mean Sonny? Phyllis asks, who’s Sonny? and Peter says Nina didn’t tell her? He’s so sorry to disappoint her, but her friend Nina has known exactly who Mike really is all along. In fact, she knows his wife and his kids. She just chose to lie about it all this time.
Out in a hallway, Drew tells Chloe, when the guard doesn’t check in, they’ll know something’s wrong. They keep moving, and he says he’s pretty much only seen the inside of his cell; she’s had the run of the place. Where to now? She tells him, outside the door, there’s a courtyard where they park their cars, and he says, he’ll just hotwire one of them, but it will take them a minute. She says, that’s why they have the keys, holding up a car key. He asks how long she’s had it, and she says since he took the beating. He tries different keys on the guard’s ring, trying to open the door, when a guard asks where they think they’re going.
Dante says, Sam wants to go see Willow’s mom? and she says he has a lot of catching up to do. She goes by the name of Harmony, and Shiloh hardly ever made a move without her knowing about it. Dante says, so he had something on her? and Sam says she doesn’t think it’s something, but more like some sort of attraction. Sam thinks Harmony thought he was charismatic, and that’s all he needed. Harmony would basically do anything he asked, including drugging her and Kristina to initiate them into the Dawn of Day. Dante says Sam had every reason to kill that guy, although he wishes Shiloh was still there to question about Drew. She says, they have the next best thing. She holds out her hand, he takes it, and she pulls him along.
Alexis asks Harmony how anyone can upset a sociopath like Ryan. Esme came off entitled and spoiled, but maybe she’s just a harmless teenager. Harmony laughs, and says, there’s nothing harmless about that girl. The smile, the perfect manners, they’re all a cover, so she can slip the knife in your back, and make off with your wallet. Alexis thinks Harmony has been there too long, and Harmony says, Shiloh collected Esme’s type at Dawn of Day; beautiful as butterflies, but vicious as a nest of vipers. Harmony walks over to help Greg.
Esme says Josslyn has known Spence much longer than she has. She’s sure Josslyn realizes Spence’s feeling for his family is complicated. Josslyn says, that’s one word for it. Esme says, just so Josslyn knows, she told Spence that she thought it was wrong for him to mislead her and Cameron into thinking he’d just come to town, and she was very much against him asking Trina to keep his secret. Spencer says, good to know it’s unanimous. Everyone thinks he’s a jerk. Josslyn says, what a shock, and Esme says he knows she doesn’t think that. He just needs to work on his communication skills and his trust issues. Isn’t today Josslyn’s mom’s wedding day? Shouldn’t she be focused on that? Josslyn says she can multitask, and Josslyn says, so it’s more important for Josslyn to threaten Spence’s new understanding with his father?
Phyllis asks what Peter is saying. Does she know Mike’s real identity? Peter says, shame on Nina, lying to a nice woman like Phyllis, manipulating her. Phyllis let Nina into her home, opened her door to her, and sang her praises, and Nina deceived her all this time. Nina calls him a psychotic bastard, and he says, excuse me. He’s not the one who let Mike believe he was Mr. Nobody. She knew all along he was Sonny Corinthos, a married man, with a beautiful wife, and a whole bunch of grieving children back in Port Charles. Phyllis asks, is this true? like it matters right now, and Nina says, please. Phyllis has to believe her. The man called Sonny Corinthos is gone. He drowned in the Lantano River, and a much better man named Mike took his place. Peter says, that’s rich. He reinvents himself as Peter August, and he’s sick and twisted. Nina reinvents herself, and she’s the goddess of love. Nina says he’s right. They both made a lot of mistakes, but he has a chance to turn everything around. All he has to do is go; leave them alone. He says he thinks he speaks for Phyllis when he says they’ve heard enough of her lying mouth. It’s time to shut her up. He puts duct tape over Nina’s mouth, and Phyllis says she doesn’t want to die. He says he knows. Next time, chose better friends. Scratch that. They both know there won’t be a next time.
Chloe tells the guard, help her. She found this prisoner trying to escape, and she was trying to stop him. As she’s talking, she pretends like she’s scared and goes behind the guard. The guard says, it doesn’t look like it, and Drew asks if the guard is calling Chloe a liar, and punches him. Chloe stabs the guard in the neck with a syringe, and he drops. Drew says, don’t tell him she was planning that too, and she says, sometimes you have to improvise. Help her get him out of here. They pick the guard up, and drag him off.
Alexis says, that’s the second time Harmony mentioned her nephew’s girlfriend. If Esme is trouble, why does she care? Harmony says, because Alexis isn’t the only one who’s lonely. Harmony and her daughter are estranged, for good reason, but not only is she cut out of Willow’s life, she’s cut out of her grandson’s life, which is a long way of saying, she could use a friend too. Sam comes in, and Alexis tells Harmony that she’d like to pick up this conversation, but right now she has a visitor. She hugs Sam, saying, this is a surprise. Sam says she’s happy to see Alexis too, but she’s a collateral benefit. They’re here for another reason. Dante joins her, and says they’re here for a professional visit. They want to talk to Harmony about a case they’re working on.
Josslyn says, what happened between Spencer and his dad is his business. However, he needs to apologize to Trina, and he’s going to have to work for it. If he’s going to make Josslyn choose between him and Trina, she’s choosing Trina. It’s not even a hard call. He tells Josslyn that he tried to explain to Trina that it’s not about her; it’s about him and his father. Esme tells him, listen to Josslyn. She believes 100% that he wasn’t trying to treat Trina poorly, but he did. Be the guy she knows he is, and apologize. Acknowledge that he put Trina in an impossible situation, and it wasn’t fair of him. He says, him? He did this. All by himself. Josslyn asks if he’s saying there was someone in it with him, and looks at Esme.
Jax says Sonny claims he loves Nina, and Sonny says, they’re not just words. He loves Nina, and she loves him. Jax says, then trust her to tell him the truth. She’s probably back at the Tan-O. They can go there together… Sonny says he’s not going anywhere with Jax. Jax asks if he doesn’t trust Nina, and Sonny says, he trusts Nina; he doesn’t trust Jax. So Jax can go, he can stay, he can do whatever he wants, but stay the hell away from Nina. Sonny stomps off.
Peter brings out a can of kerosene, totally freaking Nina and Phyllis out. He says, they thought Mike would save the day. He guesses Mike is no more heroic than Sonny. He takes a sniff of the kerosene and warns them about the fumes, telling Nina, it’s certainly no Chanel No. 5. Not to worry. He starts to pour the kerosene on the bar, and says, this will all be over in a few minutes. Nina and Phyllis struggle and try to yell, but there’s no point. Peter pours the kerosene all over the place, and says, dead women tell no tales. He tried to work with Nina, but she had to run to her Aunt Liesl. He pours the kerosene over the boxes, and says, let’s look on the bright side. He, Maxie, and their daughter will live happily ever after. And they’re taking little James with them. He can grow up with a new dad. He knocks some boxes over in front of the door, and gets on the door side. He produces a box of matches that says, Tan-O on it, which he finds amusing. He lights one, and drops it. The flames leap up, and he leaves.
Drew hopes they can find the right car, and messes with the keys, trying to unlock the door again. An alarm goes off, and he says they must have found the guard he locked in his cell. He continues trying keys, and tells her to go take the car. He’ll hold off the guards as long as he can. She says she can’t abandon him, but he says he’ll be all right. He gets the door open, and tells her, go somewhere public, very public, where they have security cameras, like the U.S. Consulate or a luxury hotel or something. She protests, but he says, someone wants him alive for whatever reason. She’s wasting time. Go. She jets, and Drew slams and locks the door. Two guards confront him, and he rushes them, knowing it’s futile. They punch the crap out of him.
Alexis says, Sam and Dante are working on a case that involves Harmony? and Harmony says she doesn’t know what they suspect her of doing, but she’s doing her best to clean up her act. Willow has made it clear that she wants nothing to do with Harmony’s life, unless she truly changes, which is what she’s trying to do… Sam tells her, hold on. Wait. They’re not here to accuse her. They actually need her help.
Esme says, maybe she’s being too hard on Spencer. She should have made sure he told his friends that he had a serious girlfriend. She should have made sure her appearance at the party was excepted, and not a big surprise. That way, Trina would have known his situation; that he was definitely unavailable. And that way, she wouldn’t have gotten any unrealistic expectations. They’ll just have to admit they messed up, and will do better moving forward. Right, Spence? Josslyn, who’s been watching this with interest, says, okay. She’s got to go. She has to get ready for her mom’s wedding. She tells Esme, as always, a pleasure. She leaves, and Spencer thanks Esme for throwing him under the bus. As if he did all this by himself, like she wasn’t a part of him arriving in town early and in secret. As if she hasn’t been part of the stalking. She’s the one who set Ava’s car on fire, something they never even discussed. She says she’s sorry. She just didn’t think it was the right call to let Josslyn think they were in this together. Trust her. This is his chance to make things right with his father. She’s only thinking about him. Josslyn watches them while she’s waiting for the elevator.
Phyllis and Nina trapped, and struggle to get free, with walls of fire all around them. Sonny comes up the walk, and says, what the hell? He runs inside, and yells for Nina. Things start falling, and he looks through the flames
Tomorrow, Drew asks if that’s who the big boss is, Spinelli tells Jason that he wouldn’t have it any other way, Maxie tells Britt that the odds are in someone’s favor, and Carly says they have no idea what’s coming. Truer words.
💭 So, I’m wondering if Sonny will get knocked in the head saving Nina and Phyllis, and get his memory back. I’m also thinking, Esme isn’t really from Spencer’s school, and she has something on him. He does not seem interested. Also, Jax is like a head taller than Sonny. I never really noticed before. Maybe there haven’t been the two of them alone in many scenes.
🗽 About That Reunion…
Apparently, the RHONY Reunion has been iffy, but I missed the memo. However, it’s now on.
