What I Watched Today
(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)
General Hospital
Nina walks to lock the door at Charlie’s when two masked gunmen bust in. One of them says, don’t do anything stupid and you might live through this. Sonny says, everything’s fine. Take what you want and we’ll stay out of your way. A gunman says, shut up. Stay right there. Sonny says, nothing has happened and nothing needs to happen. Turn around and go, and this will all be over.
Dante comes up behind Sam, seeing her with his phone, and asks what she’s doing. She says she was forwarding his forensics file to her email, and he takes the phone out of her hand, saying, forwarding the PCPD confidential file to her email? She says, he’s mad, and he says, of course (🍷) he’s mad. What was she thinking? She says she doesn’t know. She did it for the right reasons. He asks, what reasons? and she says, Trina and Joss. Drew gets off the elevator, and Carly notices that Sam and Dante are having a conflict. Sam says, Dante told her that he didn’t think Trina did it, and he says, they have to do a legal investigation, and he doesn’t remember hiring her for her P.I. services on this one. She says she wasn’t doing it as a P.I., and he says, then in what capacity… Carly runs over, and says, it’s her fault. She’s the one… Drew drags her away, and she asks what he’s doing.
Drew brings Carly to a private area, and she asks what he thinks he’s doing. He says he knows exactly what he’s doing. Saving her from herself.
At the gym, Austin asks Chase if he can help with wrapping Chase’s hands, but Chase says he’s good. Spinelli says, as it stands, it would be wise for Austin to keep his hands free, and Austin asks, why is that? Spinelli says, because insulting a woman’s honor does not go unnoticed. Not by him. Brook and Maxie come in, and Brook says, they had champagne this morning and now they’re working out. They’re doing this day backwards. Maxie says, Brook will do so much better once she gets her sweat on. She sees Spinelli, and says, then again, cardio is way overrated.
Josslyn goes to the gallery, and asks if Trina is okay. They hug, and Trina says, she didn’t have to come, but Josslyn says she did. She could tell Trina was upset. Trina says, from her text, and Josslyn says, that’s how well she knows Trina. Trina asks if Josslyn wasn’t hanging out with Cam, but Josslyn says she was already on her way home. Stop asking her questions; what happened? Trina says, Spencer happened.
Cameron opens the door to Spencer, and says, what do you want? Spencer says, wow. Welcomes don’t come warmer than that. Cameron asks if he was expecting something different, and Spencer says, he knows Cameron is pissed at him – Cameron says, that would be an understatement – but he could really use a friend right now. Cameron says, he’s come to the wrong place.
Sasha and Brando head back to Charlie’s, Sasha saying, she can’t believe Brando forgot to invite Sonny. They see what’s going on through the window, and Brando tells Sasha, call the police.
Brook says, Maxie invited her boyfriend, her baby dad, and Chase? Maxie says, to a dance cardio class? She most certainly did not. She goes over to them, and says, this is certainly quite the trio. Brook joins them, and tells Chase, hi. Spinelli says, had he known Maxie was going to be here, he’d have taken this elsewhere. She says, taken what? What is he doing? Austin says, defending her honor apparently, and Spinelli says, the doctor has to answer for his transgressions. Maxie says, let’s have a little chat. Come on. Austin and Spinelli follow her, and Chase tells Brook, he heard the Deception IPO launch was a success; social media went crazy and the stock price went through the roof. She says, yeah, thanks, and he asks how she is. She says she’s good. Him? He says, not so great, and she asks, what’s wrong? Is he feeling okay? He says he’s feeling terrible that he let her down.
Carly tells Drew that she was just trying to explain she was the one who put Sam up to it, and Dante was getting twitchy… Drew asks if twitchy is a technical term, and she says, she wanted Dante to know it was her fault; Sam didn’t do anything. He says he understands, and she says, great. She starts to leave, but he pulls her back, asking where she’s going. She says she’s going back out there, but he says, she’s not. She’s going to sit right here. She sits, and he says, here’s the deal. Dante and Sam are in a relationship. She says she’s aware of that. She was just trying to explain… and he says, what’s happening out there, Dante getting twitchy or angry or whatever it is, that’s between them. He sits across from her, and says he realizes she was just trying to explain, and that’s very well-intentioned, but when has inserting herself into another couple’s problems ever worked out? She says, never. Okay, he’s right. She made things worse, didn’t she? He says, it kind of surprised him that she wanted to get involved at all, and she says, really? After the whole Victor/bridge debacle? He says, this was a little bit different; Sam’s not in danger. She says she feels like she’s losing her mind. With the whole Josslyn video tape scandal, Trina getting arrested… He asks, what’s happening with that? and she says, he doesn’t want to know, but he says, yeah, he does.
Josslyn says, Spencer said he was worried about Trina? Really? After all he did was accuse her of being guilty? Trina says, it was kind of like whiplash. One minute, he was like, concerned, and the next minute, he was talking about how she can’t blame Esme for everything. Josslyn says, like hell they can’t, and Trina tells her, go on, say it. Josslyn tried to warn her about him. She said Spencer was sincere in the moment, but at the core, he’s a shallow and easily manipulated person. The only thing he has mileage for is being a lost little rich boy, and when it matters, there’s no there there. Josslyn tells her, if she said that, she didn’t say it nearly as well. She probably just called Spencer a tool. Trina tells her, she said that too, and Josslyn says she doesn’t want to be right. Trina says, and she doesn’t want to care about Spencer. Josslyn says, but she does, and Trina says, if she didn’t, it wouldn’t hurt as much.
Cameron says, Trina was already having a hard time as it is, then Spencer accused her of Esme’s crimes. Spencer asks how Cameron heard about that, and Cameron says, about Spencer’s little trip to the PCPD? Trina’s his friend, the real kind, the kind that shares stuff and have each other’s backs. Spencer says, it’s not what Cameron thinks, and asks if he can come inside. Please? He hates that Trina thinks the worst of him. That’s why he’s here. Cameron steps aside, and Spencer walks in, thanking him. Cameron says he hopes Spencer isn’t expecting any sympathy, because it’s not his fault Spencer turned his back on Trina and spawned this baby with the devil. Spencer says, Esme isn’t pregnant, and Cameron says, too bad. Spencer deserves to be tied down to that nightmare for life. Spencer says, okay, fine. So, no baby, but the other thing Cameron said is true; he let Trina down. Cameron says, big time.
Sonny tells the gunmen, leaving is still an option. They can’t ID them, even if they tried. One of the gunmen says, shut up and open the till. They want their wallets and jewelry. Nina hands over her purse, and Sonny says, tonight’s profits have already been deposited, so it’s only petty cash. The guy says, get it, and Sonny says, he’s going to go grab it, but the gunman says, not alone he’s not. He follows Sonny, and Sonny goes behind the bar, bringing the cash box out. Nina fingers her necklace, and the other gunman asks what she’s doing. Sonny says, he doesn’t want to touch her, and the gunman says, and if he does? pointing his gun at Sonny. Brando watches through the window, and Sonny says, he doesn’t want to find out. Take what they came for; get the hell out. The gunman by the bar tells Sonny, your watch, but Sonny says the guy’s not taking the watch. It belonged to his dad. The other gunman says, can you believe this guy? and Sonny says, if he wants the watch, he’ll have to rip it off him. Brando comes in, startling the gunman by the door, and Sonny grabs the other one. Brando totally kicks ass, slamming the guy on a table, knocking him out, and Sonny flips the other gunman over the bar. He asks if Nina is okay, and she says she thinks so. He tells Brando that he did good.
Chase says he regrets the way he responded when Brook asked him to sing her song, but she says she understands. Wanting to get off suspension is his priority, and she gets that. He tells her, she says it’s fine, but he’s getting the vibe that it’s not, and she says, his future as a detective is bright. Excuse her.
Dante says he never thought he’d have to guard his phone from Sam, and she says, come on. He says, it’s an official document meant for a police officer, him, for work. It’s not meant for a civilian. She sees that, right? She says, of course (🍷) she does, but it’s a report. Everything in it is eventually going to come out; it moves forward. He says, she’s right, but she doesn’t see where it’s a problem? She says, it’s not like she was stealing government secrets or tampering with evidence, and he agrees, it’s not. Her getting eyes on this isn’t a game changer. She says, all right. Then… He says, she went into his phone. She accessed private files without asking him. He thought they’d gotten to a place of mutual trust, and she says, they have. He says, it just doesn’t seem like it to him, or maybe she has a different definition of it than he does. He’s going to get privileged information, stuff she isn’t allowed to see. It’s that simple. It has nothing to do with how he feels about her. She says she understands, and he says, does she? HIs phone rings, and he looks at it, and says he needs to know he can trust her for this to work. He steps away to answer, and says, okay… He’ll be right there. She asks if he has to go, and he says, yeah, grabs his jacket, and leaves.
Drew says he doesn’t know if Carly got his message, and she says she did. She’s sorry she didn’t call him back. He says she doesn’t have to apologize. He knows things have been crazy. She says, he has no idea, and he says, so tell him. She says, so this tape gets out, and Josslyn is utterly humiliated. She knows Cam is too, but… He says, but it’s not the same. Both were victimized, no doubt about it, but at the end of the day, the guy ends up looking like a sex god, and the girl is labeled a slut. She says, pretty much, and he says he’s sorry, but he does give Joss and Cam credit for doing the article. She says, he has to throw some credit Alexis’s way too, and he says, wow, praising Alexis. She says, wonders never cease, but she really got the story, and the way we wanted the story to be told. He says, focusing on the victimization, and how much lands on the girl. Part of him wanted to get in to that with Aurora; pick up the story, give it more steam. But then he worried about piling it on, and she says she’s glad he stayed on the sidelines. Alexis was far enough removed that she could let Alexis handle doing the story, but with him, things could get tricky. He’s just too close. He says, in that case, he’s going to take advantage of that closeness, and she says, okay… He asks how she is. How is she dealing with all of this?
Spencer tells Cameron, he knows he said hurtful things to Trina. He doesn’t deny that, but it’s complicated. Cameron says, cry me a river. He misses the times Spencer was just an annoying snob and just pretentious. Now he’s a full-blown ass. Spencer asks if Cameron will please hear him out, and Cameron asks, why? So Spencer can bombard him with lies and excuses? Spencer says, no excuses, but he’s allowed to have problems, isn’t he? Cameron says, Spencer wants to talk about problems? He just lost his summer job that he worked years to get. And now there’s people on the internet critiquing his performance in bed, and he’s in a weird space with his girlfriend. Spencer says he’s sorry. Cam and Joss don’t deserve what’s happening to them. Cameron says, it didn’t just happen to them. A crime was committed against them. Spencer says he knows, but Cameron says he doesn’t know. Spencer’s not his friend. In fact, he wants nothing to do with Spencer. The way he’s jerked Trina around, gotten her to lie for him, and begged her to save him, and his disgusting girlfriend… Spencer says he knows Esme did it, okay? He knows she framed Trina. Now it’s his turn to try and save Trina.
Maxie says, Austin is a good man, and Spinelli would know that if he just gave Austin a chance. Spinelli says, Austin’s not worthy of her, but she says he doesn’t think anyone is worthy of her. She really likes Austin, and would like to see where this goes. Can Spinelli accept that? He says he supposes he has to, and she says, that’s the spirit, punches his shoulder, and walks over to Austin.
Spencer says, Trina is innocent; he’s always believed that. Cameron says, really? Or is Spencer just telling him that? Spencer says, really, and Cameron asks, then why is he pretending to be on Team Esme? Spencer says, he’s trying to get Esme to lower her guard, so that she can lead him to something, anything that will exonerate Trina. Cameron says, that sounds really shady, and Spencer says he’s sorry. Does Cameron have a better idea? Cameron says, no, but is it really worth hurting Trina? Spencer says, Cameron should have seen the look in Trina’s eyes when he just left her at the gallery. It gutted him. And he hasn’t been able to lose that feeling since he stupidly left with Esme the night of their ski trip. Cameron asks if Spencer means that, and Spencer nods. Cameron says, Spencer does have feelings for Trina. Okay. He thinks they both have problems.
Outside Kelly’s, Josslyn asks if Trina is okay, and Trina says, it sounded like a good idea at the time, but now that she’s here… Josslyn says, Spencer’s not working, and Trina says, it’s not that. Josslyn says she gets it. When the video came out, she didn’t want to go anywhere. She didn’t want to come here, she didn’t want to go to the MetroCourt, and especially not class. But then she realized hiding doesn’t help; it makes things worse. Trina says she’s not hiding per se. She just doesn’t want to feel like she’s being put under a microscope. Josslyn says, the microscope is not real, and Trina asks if she’s sure about that. Josslyn says, it’s good for them to be seen together. Would she really be hanging out with the person who made a sex tape of her and her boyfriend? Trina says, probably not, and Josslyn says, so let’s go inside, heads held high, order dessert. Trina says, speak for herself. She’s ordering potato wedges. Josslyn says, you rebel, and they go inside.
Carly says, how is she? and Drew says, that’s a bit of a loaded question. She says she just wants to come out swinging and fix everything, but it’s Josslyn’s fight, not hers. He says, still, it would feel pretty good to lay into somebody, and she says, not somebody; Esme Prince. He says, Spencer’s girlfriend? and Carly says, she made and sent that video, and framed Trina. He asks if they’re trusting her instincts on this, which he absolutely does, or is it based on fact? She says, a little bit of both, and he says, fair enough. She says, this girl has a history of deviant behavior; beyond sneakiness or manipulation. He says, straight up evil, and she says, yeah, and this so-called evidence against Trina? It’s all circumstantial, not to mention ridiculously convenient. She knows Trina. She’d never do something like this. So that’s where she’s at. She just wants all this to be over. She wants Josslyn, Trina, and Cameron to go on with their lives, and she wants Esme to go down. He says, meaning Carly wants to take her down, and she says, hell yeah. He says he gets it. That’s how he felt about Peter August. He wanted it to be him who got Peter, him who got the evidence to put him away. And after he escaped yet another conviction, he wanted to be the guy to shoot him, and end that miserable life, but it’s not how it panned out.
Brando comes out of Charlie’s, and hugs Sasha, as the cops take the gunmen away. He tells her that he’s fine, and she says, it was dangerous. He tells her, don’t forget sexy, and she says, he could have been killed. He says he had to do something, and she tells him, promise not to make it a habit. He says he promises. He’s not going anywhere. Inside, Nina says she’s glad Phyllis wasn’t here for this, and Sonny says, he’s sorry Nina was. She thanks him for protecting her, and he says, she protects him from Scotty; he’ll always protect her. They laugh, and Dante comes in. He asks if they’re up to answering a few questions, or do they need a minute. Sonny looks at Nina.
Dante says, so Phyllis and the bodyguard are outside being questioned. They were at the bank when these perps arrived? Sonny says, that’s right, and Dante asks if he thinks they knew he owned Charlie’s. If they did and they hit the place anyway, that’s a pretty bold move. Brando and Sasha walk in, and Brando says he should go talk to Dante so they can get out of here and go home. As soon as he’s gone, she digs in her bag, takes out her pillbox, and pops a pill. Nina says, Sasha, and Sasha turns around. Nina says she thinks Sasha knows what she’s going to say.
Spinelli sees Sam at the MetroCourt bar, and says, gracious greetings. She just looks at him, and he asks if something undesirable has transpired. She tells him, you could say that, and he says he certainly doesn’t want to push, but if she’s inclined to share… She says she just ruined her relationship.
Carly asks if Drew still thinks about the Peter thing, and he says, yeah, but he’s learning to be okay with it. Hopefully she can benefit from that experience, and prepare herself. Esme has wronged people she cares about, but it may not be her who puts her right. She says, that’s hard, and he says, it is. He has to remind himself not to go so far down that rabbit hole that it wrecks the things he does have. She says, Peter’s dead, so Drew can’t chase after him, and Drew says, that’s true, but there’s always somebody, right? He could go after Victor, and he will when the opportunity arises, but he’s not going to devote his whole life to it, because it’s not going to get him anywhere. She says she feels like that’s her problem. She’s looking at the rest of her life without Sonny, and she doesn’t know what that looks like, or what that means. He says, but that’s okay. She’s got time to figure it out. She says, but she’s not figuring it out. She’s pouring her energy into everything and anything else. Josslyn, Trina, Esme, and like he said, she’s getting nowhere. Maybe it’s time to pour that energy into herself.
Spinelli says, Dante caught Sam with her hand in the proverbial cookie jar, and she says, yep. He asks how they left matters, and she tells him, with Dante saying he can’t trust her, and without trust, it won’t work. Spinelli says, he’s afraid Dante’s not wrong.
Brook walks past, and gives Chase a look. Austin asks if Chase wants to talk about that, and Chase says, not with him. Austin says, fair enough. When they had that conversation about Chase’s marriage to Willow, he had an ulterior motive, and he regrets that. For what it’s worth (🍷), that’s not the kind of behavior he wants to repeat. Chase tells Austin, he said no to Brook, which he doesn’t do often, and Austin says he can’t imagine anybody does. Chase says, it’s not just that. He insulted her without meaning to, and it’s not the first time. Maybe Brook’s decided she’s done with him. Austin asks how Chase feels about that.
Brook tells Maxie, good thing Spinelli didn’t take Austin out. Not that she’d care, but Maxie likes the guy. Maxie asks if they should talk about the guy Brook likes, and Brook says, no thank you. Chase apologized. Not just for not singing her song, but the way he rejected her. Maxie says, that’s a start. Brook makes a disgusted sound, and Maxie asks, what’s really bothering her? That Chase said no to her song, or that he didn’t do what he normally does, come running when Brook called?
Cameron gives Spencer some water, and says, Spencer has to tell Trina that he believes her. Spencer says, he can’t, but Cameron says, she knows how to keep a secret. Spencer says, it’s not Trina who he doesn’t trust. What if she tells her lawyer? Scotty is also Ava’s lawyer, and with Esme living at Windymere, he can’t risk this getting back to her and tipping her off. Cameron says, okay. What if Spencer testifies at the trial? That would be a huge blow to the prosecution. Spencer says, true, but not foolproof. They need something that will guarantee Trina walks away from these charges. Cameron says, even if it means she hates him? and Spencer says, even if. Cameron says he’s sorry for blowing up earlier, but Spencer says, don’t worry about it. Cameron’s right; he’s been an ass. Cameron says, that’s because Spencer was protecting his friend, and Spencer says, just like Cameron. Which why Trina can’t know, and neither can Josslyn.
Trina asks how they’re going to nail Esme, and Josslyn says, a taste of her own medicine? Somehow record her confessing? Trina says, to who? The only person Esme would admit it to is Spencer, and he’s already gone to the dark side. Josslyn says, there has to be a way, and Trina says, Josslyn told her at the gallery that she left Cameron at his house, and Josslyn says, yeah. Trina says, that seems weird; kind of early for them to end the night. Josslyn says, everything’s fine. There have been a couple of bumps along the way – how could there not be? – but they’re going to figure it out. Trina says, they better, because Esme can’t take one more thing from them. Josslyn stares daggers at someone sitting at the counter, and we see it’s Rory in civilian clothes. Trina asks, what’s wrong? and Josslyn says, there’s this guy who keeps staring at them. She jumps up, and stomps over to Rory, saying, excuse me. Which one of us are you looking at, the video star or the criminal mastermind?
Cameron says, no way is he keeping this from Joss, but Spencer says he has to. He knows how Joss and Trina are. They tell each other everything; this will be no exception. Cameron asks, then why tell him? and Spencer says, Cameron basically forced him into it. Cameron says, so it’s his fault now? and Spencer says, no, but Trina can’t know, and if they want to keep it that way, neither can Joss. Cameron knows the saying about too many cooks in the kitchen. This needs to be a solo operation. Cameron says, this is unfair, and Spencer says he’s sorry he put Cameron in a bad position. Cameron says, well, he’s here, and Spencer says he needs Cameron to promise; swear right now to keep this between them. Cameron says he can’t tell if this plan of Spencer’s is noble or idiotic; it’s probably both. Spencer says, he’s just trying to redeem himself, but Cameron says, or maybe he’s trying to be Trina’s sole hero. Either way, Spencer is in way over his head.
Josslyn asks if Rory got his money’s worth, and Trina runs over, saying, it’s not what Josslyn thinks. She knows him. Rory says, sorry if he was staring, and Trina says she remembers him. Mr. Invisible, the cop who gave her a soda. He says he did give her a soda, but doesn’t recall wearing his Cloak of Invisibility at the time. She says, she wanted to be alone at the courthouse, and… He tells her, he said he would be invisible. Trina introduces her friend Josslyn, and says, this is Officer… He says she can call him Rory. Josslyn says, it’s nice to meet him, and she’s so, so, so sorry. She didn’t recognize him outside the courthouse, and especially not in uniform. Rory says, it’s cool. He gets it. He’s just glad Trina has friends to look out for her. Keep your chin up, okay? He says, it’s good to see Trina, and she says, him too. He says, it was nice to meet Josslyn, and leaves. Josslyn says, oh my God. She’s had a nice life, but can the floor just swallow her whole? She just reamed a cop. Trina says, she sure did, and they hug.
Drew says, Carly seems to be handling her divorce pretty well. She chose herself. She says she did. Her life; what’s right for her. Of course (🍷) that meant letting Sonny go. It wasn’t easy, but it was right. He says, she’s a survivor in the best possible way, not pushing people down and climbing over them, just resilient. He wants to be like that. She asks, how is he not like that? If anyone has been dealt crappy hand after crappy hand, and managed to get up and keep going, it’s him. He amazes her. She would hate the whole world. She’d be a horrible, vengeful person. He says, no, she would not. She would be who she is. She asks, and who is that? but he says he’s not going there. He’s not trying define Carly Corinthos. She asks, why? and he says, because she’s undefinable.
Spinelli says, what may have felt harmless to Sam, wasn’t harmless to Dante. She says she gets that now, and he says, so tell Dante. She appreciates the stability and safety she has with Dante. Then it stands to reason, he would appreciate the same. She says she thought she was giving that to him. She wants to give that to him. He says, she will. She made one mistake. Mistakes can be rectified. She says, but what if she doesn’t get another chance?
Nina says she’s so grateful Sasha and Brando came back. They really saved the day. Sasha says, it was all Brando, and Nina says, she must be proud of him. Sasha says, she will be, once her heart stops pounding. What about Nina? It must have been terrifying. Nina says, they wanted to take her necklace, and Sasha takes her hands. She says, even if they’d succeeded, a mother’s love can’t be stolen. Brando tells Dante, it seemed like amateur hour with those two yahoos. It could be a coincidence they hit up Charlie’s. Dante doesn’t think it’s any secret that Sonny is the owner. If they cased the place, they’d know for sure. A cop signals to Dante, and Dante says he’ll be back to take their statements. Sonny thanks Brando, but Brando says, Sonny would have taken them both down. Sonny says, maybe, but he’s glad he didn’t have to. Brando says, it’s just lucky they came back, and Sonny asks why they did. Brando says, it seems trivial now, but they forgot to invite Sonny to the wedding reception Deception is throwing for them. Sonny says, it’s not trivial because he can’t wait to celebrate with Brando and Sasha. He asks if Brando thinks those crooks didn’t know his connection to this place, and Brando says, it’s possible they didn’t care.
Chase suggests post workout smoothies to Maxie and Brook, and Maxie says, unearned? Brook says, the best kind, and Maxie asks if Austin is buying. Austin says he seems to have lost his wallet. Does she want to come help him look? She goes with him, and Chase tells Brook, come on. She can tell him how it felt to hear her song performed. She says, only if he’s buying, and he says, deal.
Trina thanks Josslyn, and says she was feeling sorry for herself. But tonight, the fresh air, the French fried the epic freakout, it made her feel normal again, if even for a minute. Josslyn says, if that’s the case, she should berate strangers more often, and Trina says, maybe just Spencer. Josslyn says, Spencer doesn’t deserve Trina’s friendship, and he can forget about ever having hers again. Trina says, Josslyn doesn’t have to ditch Spencer just because Spencer ditched her, but Josslyn says, she does. her loyalty is to Trina, always, and she knows Cam feels the same way. Their days of enabling Spencer are over.
Spencer says, so that’s a no? Cameron’s not going to help him? He knows he can be a really lame friend – Cameron says, the lamest – and he’s single-handedly trying to save the day, but he really thinks he can do it. It’s a lot to ask, but Cameron needs to trust him. Cameron says, fine. Spencer wins. He won’t tell Joss. Spencer thanks him, and Cameron says, he’d better find something that exonerates Trina. This is the last time he’s sticking his neck out for Spencer. Don’t make him regret it.
Drew raises his glass, and Carly asks what they’re toasting to. He says, resilience. Something they have in common. They clink glasses, and Carly says, wouldn’t it be nice if they didn’t have to though? If life could just be easy, once in a while? He tells her, who says it won’t be? They’re just getting started, right? She says she guesses they are.
Spinelli says, Dante will come around, and Sam asks how he knows. He says, because what mere mortal could stay angry at her? and she says she hopes he’s right. He says, don’t make the same mistake he did. Let Dante know he comes first.
Sasha asks if Dante knows how much longer. She’s not feeling so hot. He says, Brando can come to the station in the morning, and give his statement then. He tells her to have a better rest of her night, and moves on. Nina says, Sasha is really shaken up, and Sasha says she could have lost Brando. After losing Liam, she doesn’t think she can survive it. Dante tells an officer to let Jordan know he’ll have an update for her when he’s done here, and the officer leaves. Dante’s phone dings, and it’s a text from Sam: I messed up. I’m sorry and I promise to do better.
Brando tells Sonny that he’s heard some chit-chat at the garage. He didn’t think it was legit, but then tonight happened. There’s a perception that Sonny’s base of power isn’t what it used to be. With only two families to make marinara sauce covering the territories, and Jason gone, up and comers are sensing an opening. Just above a whisper, Sonny says, his operation is stretched thin, even with Brick stepping up. His business is vulnerable after these two clowns. Every lowlife punk will think it’s open season. Brando asks what he’s going to do, and Sonny says, he’s going to remind everybody that he’s the boss.
Tomorrow, Chase has it covered; Laura knows Lucy is still dating her brother; Finn asks how Elizabeth can think the threat is over; and Carly tells Sonny, his enemies will smell blood in the water.
🙏🏽 Love and Prayers…
I couldn’t find a follow-up, but I assume the surgery was a success.
🗑 Trashy Reason…
My guess is, because she reacts like a fourteen year old.
🌞 Alive Again…
I just figured they were so mismatched, it worked. Apparently not.
📀 And the Winner Was…
