What I Watched Today
(rambling, random thoughts & annoyingly detailed recaps from real time TV watching)
General Hospital
Today’s last GH Flashback was is from May 21st, 2020. You can catch up a little here, or a lot at:
Laura saw Robert and said it didn’t look like he’d had much rest. She asked if he was throwing himself into work. He told her the rumors of Holly’s death had been greatly exaggerated. Maxie looked at the photos from the shoot and said they were spectacular. They’d had a bumpy start, but she should have known Sasha would find a way to rally. She was a wreck this morning, but only saw blue skies ahead. Valentin said Sasha had given them a signature look they could capitalize on. Maxie said she thought he was going to be a silent partner, and he said he wasn’t going to make a habit of it. Finance was more his style, but he’d wanted to see the literal face of Deception. Now he was off to focus on other ventures. On the phone with Tracy, Ned said another party was after Dillon’s shares? That meant they were probably searching for other parties who wanted to sell. He asked her to keep him posted. Brook overheard Olivia on the phone, saying no one had ever said anything like that to her before, and they could see through to her soul like no one else. Brook cleared her throat, and Olivia ended the call. Brook said she obviously walked in on an emotional phone call, but Olivia said it wasn’t what it seemed. Brook said it sounded like Olivia was having an affair behind her father’s back. Nina told Jax that she didn’t know if she should stand up for Nelle, but if she didn’t, who else would? In court, Nelle was sworn in.
Laura asked Robert if the ship didn’t sink, but he said that wasn’t what he was saying. Mac and Anna hadn’t given him the whole story. The Bureau had a theory about the ship. Laura asked if Mac and Anna believed Holly could have survived, and he said he didn’t say that, but they didn’t know his ex-wife like he did, and until he found out what the Bureau’s theory was, he couldn’t get out there and look for her. Olivia told Brook that she wasn’t cheating on Ned, and Brook said the phone call sounded extremely intimate. Olivia said she didn’t need to explain herself to Brook, but Brook said if she didn’t, she’d repeat what Olivia said to Ned, and let him judge for himself. Olivia said Ned had enough on his plate, including the trouble Brook had caused. She asked if there was a PCPD jail cell with Brook’s name on it, and Brook said her arrests were misunderstandings. The person causing the most trouble was her father’s faithless wife. Olivia said she wasn’t having an affair. She was talking to a psychic. Valentin told Maxie and Sasha that he was bringing Deception public; they were going to be one of the main sponsors of the Nurses Ball. Maxie said that was huge, but it was soon, and he said she should try arguing with Lucy. He was impressed with the shoot, and sure they could pull it off. Maxie told Sasha, whatever she’d done had worked, and Sasha flashed back to the assistant giving her a vial of cocaine. Jax said it seemed like Nina was having second thoughts, and Nina said he’d like if she leaned into them. He said she knew how he felt, and Nina said he thought it was a mistake, and Nelle didn’t deserve a second chance. Jax said people could change, but if Nina was wrong, Wiley would pay the price, and she’d feel responsible. She said if she didn’t stand up for Nelle, and Nelle lost her child because of it, there would be no chance of Nelle turning her life around. Martin asked Nelle to tell the court how her baby was horrifically stolen from her, but Diane objected, saying it wasn’t a question. Judge Lowe sustained it, and Martin asked what Nelle’s reaction was to finding out her baby was alive. Nelle said she was confused at first. She was overwhelmed, and incredibly hurt that Brad had orchestrated it; she’d thought he was her friend. He’d switched her son for the boy he’d adopted, and she grieved for almost two years. Then he asked Michael to be Wiley’s godfather. She couldn’t imagine anything so demented. And she wasn’t the only one who was hurt. Julian had believed he was Wiley’s grandfather. Jules believed Wiley was his grandson, and when they found out the truth, they were both shocked and in pain. It brought them closer, and gave them a connection, and possibly something more.
Brook made fun of Olivia consulting a psychic, and Ned came in, saying, enough. Olivia asked how else she was going to find out about Dante? Her letters returned unopened, and she had no way of knowing if he was okay. Brook apologized, but Olivia walked out, and Ned followed. Ned said he was sorry. He’d been obsessing over ELQ, and who was buying shares to make a hostile takeover. He didn’t see his wife was obviously in pain. Sasha told Maxie, it was important to Deception, and she wanted to prove herself; people didn’t trust her. Besides, she was a partner, and willing to use every trick in the book to make the launch successful. Maxie stumbled a little, and Peter asked if she was okay. She said she was lightheaded, but she probably had too much coffee. He suggested she take a break, and they left together. Valentin asked Sasha if she was okay. Martin asked if Nelle loved Julian, and she said Julian loved Wiley, and would do anything to protect Wiley and keep him safe. He loved Wiley abundantly, and she thought he would make an excellent co-parent. He loved Wiley as much as she did. What mother could find anything more appealing? Nelle told Jax, no one was in Nelle’s corner or hoped things worked out for her. Imagine how lonely that was. If Nelle felt there was no one there to back her up, she might lash out, and end up in prison again. Jax said it would be Nelle’s own fault; Nina wasn’t responsible. Nina flashed back on Nelle telling her about making a deal with Julian to keep Wiley safe. Martin asked why Nelle felt she deserved sole custody, and she said she’d already lost two years with her son. Then Michael kept Wiley away from her. Michael was selfish and entitled, and she didn’t want those lessons passed to her child. She had a good job, roots in the community, and a husband who loved Wiley as much as she did. She wanted to dedicate the rest of her life to giving Wiley the home and family that he deserved. Martin had no more questions. Diane said, Nelle claimed to have roots in Port Charles, and was dedicating the rest of her life to make sure Wiley had the best family possible. Why was it, that when she’d first discovered her son was alive, she raced to where Willow was taking care of him, assaulted Willow, and attempted to abduct Wiley and flee the country? Martin objected, saying it was a verbal assault based on unfounded accusations.
Laura asked if Robert had any proof, other than his gut feeling, and he said the proof was there. He just needed to find it. He could use a partner, and had called Luke, but his line was disconnected. Laura said she didn’t have a current number, but his best bet was to talk to Tracy. Brook asked Ned, since when had there been a play for ELQ? and he said he became suspicious while Nelle sold her shares to a third unnamed party. Tracy told him there had been several attempts to buy Dillon’s shares, but she rejected the offers. He suggested they talk later, and Brook left. He told Olivia that Brook had no business eavesdropping, much less criticizing her, but he wasn’t sure a psychic was the best way to get help. Olivia told him that she felt helpless, and told him about Rocco bringing Dustin to Take Your Dad to School Day. She said she confronted Lulu about it, and Lulu told her that it had been Rocco’s idea. Rocco was already finding a father figure, and it was like her son was being erased. What motivation would Dante have to get better or come home? She felt like she was running out of time. She got that people thought psychics were stupid and silly, but the psychic was the only person telling her that her son was okay. Ned asked if she thought it was possible the psychic was just telling her what she wanted to hear. Brook called Linc, and said she knew he was in Port Charles. She wanted a face-to-face with him immediately. Valentin told Sasha, he gathered that she knew Michael had married Willow, and he was sorry. Sasha said her personal life was personal, and didn’t affect her role in Deception. Valentin said he just wanted to check. He’d been where she was, and knew what it was like to lose someone based on something he’d done, but nothing was ever as black and white as it seemed on the surface. Jax told Nina that he didn’t think Nelle was capable of accepting kindness; she was too damaged. At worst, she would turn an innocent child into someone vindictive and incapable of love. Nina’s phone started to beep, and she said, if she was going to testify, she needed to leave for the courthouse now. Martin said there was no evidence that Nelle was going to flee the country, but Diane said the charges were dismissed without prejudice – like the assault against Willow. She asked if Nelle loved her husband, and Nelle said with every fiber in her being. Diane said, as of this morning, it would seem, and had no further questions. Martin called Julian to the stand. Julian told Nelle that he thought he wasn’t going to testify, and she told him, buck up; plans change. Did she have to remind him what was at stake?
Martin asked Julian if it was true he and Nelle married to create a loving, stable home for Wiley. Julian said it was, and Martin asked if he’d if Julian had experience nurturing Wiley when Lucas was in a coma. Julian said that was true. Brad had been an emotional wreck, so he stepped in. Martin asked if he loved Wiley as much as he did Lucas, and Julian said, yes. Martin suggested they talk about the elephant in the room. Had he ever been sent to Pentenville? Julian said he had, and Martin asked how long was it since he’d been released. Julian said, three years, and Martin asked if he’d had any brushes with the law since. Julian said, not so much as a parking ticket, and Martin asked what he did for a living. Julian said he ran Charlie’s, and Martin asked if it was fair to say he’d cleaned up his life. Julian said it was, and Martin had no further questions. Diane asked if Julian had been arrested for drug trafficking, extortion, and assault, and Julian said none of the charges had been proven, but she said there had been enough to convict him. She asked who Alexis was to him, and he said, his ex-wife. Diane asked if it was true that he’d held a knife to Alexis’s throat, and aided and abetted his siter in trying to blow up GH. He said he was forced to do it, and she said he was perfect for Wiley. She was done. Nelle told Martin to do something. At the MetroCourt, Peter said Maxie had barely eaten, and she said she wasn’t hungry. He suggested she see a doctor, and she said she didn’t need to. She just… He asked, what is it? Olivia told Ned, they’d have to agree to disagree. Her opinion to believe in psychics was as valid as his not to. Ned said he didn’t want to see anyone take advantage of her pain, but she said he calls were the only thing giving her comfort. The doorbell rang, and it was Robert, who promised he wouldn’t take long. It wasn’t public knowledge, but Holly had been on a boat that sunk, and was believed dead. There were discrepancies in the Bureau report, and he wanted to pursue them. He wanted to ask Luke for help, and Laura said the only way to contact Luke was through Ned’s mother. Ned said Luke got scratchy if he gave out the number, but he’d call Tracy. He went upstairs to make the call, and Olivia asked how Robert was holding up. He said the only thing worse, would be accepting he’d never see Holly again, and wondered why he had the feeling he wasn’t the only person who’d been through the wringer. Brook met Linc at the MetroCourt, and said she wanted to talk business. He thought their business had concluded, and she never wanted to see him again, but she said he’d bought her shares as a front for a third party. She wanted to know who. Sasha told Valentin, when he’d asked her to pose as Nina’s daughter, she did it for the money, but she knew she was helping him with a woman he truly loved, and Nina loved him back. So after everything that had happened, she still sympathized with him. She said, sometimes you have to do the wrong thing for the right reason, and he said he knew she was a good person. That’s why he knew she’d be a good daughter for Nina. He was sorry she was still paying the price, but if it was any consolation, Deception was going to be a massive success. She was going to be a wealthy woman. She said, too bad money can’t buy happiness, and he said, too bad, and left. Sasha remembered Michael telling her that he loved her, and telling him that she loved him too. Julian saw Sam in the hallway at court, and she slapped him across the face.
Julian asked Sam to let him explain, but she said he’d just make excuses; don’t bother. She’d been with Lucas, and told him about his new stepmom. He said he’d wanted to do that, but she said she saved him the time. When she’d told Lucas that she that he’d married Nelle, Lucas’s exact words were that Julian was dead to him. She was starting to feel the same way. The worst part was, he’d used the most painful thing that happened to Lucas against him, and allowed Nelle to weaponize Wiley. If she got custody, Julian would be dead to Sam too. He said everything he’d done was for his kids, but she said she wasn’t listening. She and Lucas would be so much better off without him in their lives, and if Leo eventually came to the same conclusion, they’d be there to support him. Olivia told Robert that Brook overheard her call a psychic, and she wound up telling Ned. He was nice about it, but thought it was a total scam. Robert said he’d spent time in the Outback, and the aboriginals were very spiritual. What we looked at as superstition, they looked at as a part of life. He asked what she hoped to find, and she said, Dante. She need to have hope that he’d be okay. The whole world was moving on without him, and she had to keep fighting and believing he’d be okay. The psychic was the only person to give her hope. He told her not to give up hope on Dante, like he wasn’t going to with Holly. There was nothing crazy about it. Ned listened outside the door. Brook said Linc had stonewalled her until she’d agreed to sell him the shares. It made sense. Of course (🍷) he was just a front man. Who was pulling the strings? Linc said it was none of her business, but she said she wasn’t leaving until she got a name. Valentin saw Laura at the MetroCourt, and she asked if he’d gotten an invitation to Windymere for the unveiling. He said he had, and thought it was a joke. She hoped he chose not to go, for Charlotte’s sake, and Nikolas didn’t need any more trouble, even if he was asking for it. He said he’d thrown the invitation away. He no longer needed the estate to prove anything. Julian went back into the courtroom, and Martin said he was expecting his next witness any moment. Nina walked in.
Martin called Nina to the stand, and Carly asked Jax what the hell she was doing. Jax said he had no idea. Peter came back from taking a call, and saw that Maxie hadn’t taken a bite of her food. He asked if she was sure she was okay, and she said she thought it was just stress from work, but maybe she would see a doctor. The assistant who’d given Sasha the cocaine, produced another vial, but Sasha said she didn’t need it. The assistant told her to keep it. She’d never know when she’d need another boost. Laura called Anna, and said she was worried about Robert. Ned told Robert that he spoke to his mother, and gave Robert the number to Luke’s burner phone. He said Luke was expecting Ned’s call. Robert thanked him, and told Olivia to look out for herself. Olivia told him to do the same. When Robert left, Ned asked if Olivia was feeling better. She said she was; you never knew who would come up with the right words. Linc told Brook, it was a one-time thing. He had zero obligation to tell her, and the person who bought the shares wanted to stay anonymous. Brook said she still hadn’t gone public with what Linc did, but she could, and he could lose his career. He asked if she was threatening him. Valentin appeared, and said he’d take it from there. Linc left, and Valentin sat with Brook. He said he’d been looking forward to this moment. He’d heard a lot about her.
Nina was swore to tell the truth – so help her God.
Next time, Ned says ELQ is at risk for a hostile takeover, Nina says Nelle confirmed her initial impression, and Laura asks Cyrus what his real interest in the hospital is.
Shahs of Sunset – Reunion Part Two
Andy opened with saying he was keeping tabs on the Shahs while keeping his distance, and asked if at the beginning of the season, MJ hadn’t talked to Reza because of a contract dispute. Through the first three quarters of the show, MJ kept hopping in and out of her seat, and Destiney fielded this one. She said when she went to visit MJ in the hospital – even though MJ had said no one visited – MJ asked her to wait until the cameras were rolling, and she hadn’t signed her contract yet. MJ said that Ali had wanted to bring up Adam’s inappropriate texts, she told him that he should, but he threw in all that stuff times twenty. Destiney said both Ali and MJ changed their stories constantly. MJ said she’d already spoken to Adam and Reza, even though they insisted she hadn’t. Andy asked if MJ was slow in signing her contract because Reza broke ranks, and signed right away. Reza said there had been an amazing vibe without MJ in the beginning episodes. Andy said viewers had a hard time believing Reza and Adam’s relationship was monogamous. Reza said MJ had started rumors, and Mike said, while it was up to them to admit if their relationship was open or not, MJ inserting herself just caused problems. Andy asked if Reza knew naked Jenga (it still sounds so stupid) was a possibility, and we flashed back to Reza’s lack of reaction when Destiney told him. Reza said there was some old sh*t about Adam that only MJ knew about, and if she wanted to apologize, he’d take her back as a friend in a heartbeat, but without that, there was no future. Adam never cheated or played naked Jenga.
A viewer asked what went through Reza’s mind when Ali pulled out all the printed texts, and Reza said he’d heard from his hairdresser that Ali and MJ were in cahoots, trying to be relevant. Andy asked if Adam took ownership for basically starting all of this. Adam admitted that if he’d never given Ali the ammunition, this never would have started, and Mike applauded. Andy asked what prompted Reza to lunge at Ali, and he said it was the moment he realized his best friend of thirty years had betrayed him. MJ started screaming at him, and jumped out of her seat. Mike said as Reza’s best friend, she should have said Adam hadn’t sexually harassed anyone. MJ said Adam hadn’t; Ali had improvised. We flashed back to when Ali told MJ what happened. Ali said, that’s when he started to improvise, and MJ seemed genuinely shocked. Adam thanked her, and MJ said she was in ICU. GG wanted MJ to talk faster; she was growing grey hairs while waiting for MJ to finish. Andy pointed out that when Reza called MJ, she was recovering. Reza said his only thought was that he’d been betrayed by his best friend of thirty years, a sentence he slipped in at every opportunity. He said he was blinded by that one fact. Here’s where MJ disappeared again, and Reza said he’d wanted MJ to acknowledge the allegation that Adam sexually harassed Ali wasn’t true, but she wanted her hands to be clean. That’s where the problem started. GG watched while eating something out of a container that looked like macaroni and cheese, but was probably some Persian chickpea concoction.
Andy asked GG, Nema, and Destiney to step away while he talked to Reza and MJ, who was now back in her chair. He thought Mike would be an excellent mediator, and needed his help. Andy asked why MJ hadn’t visited MJ in the hospital, and Reza said she didn’t want visitors. MJ said he was lying, and he said he loved her. Why was she trying to make him look bad? She said no one had any sympathy for Tommy while she was in the hospital. No one gave a f***. She thought they were waiting for a camera. We flashed back to five minutes ago when Destiney said the same thing about MJ. MJ told Reza that she’d been watching their kiki, and we saw a clip from their show, Kiki with Reza and MJ. MJ said Reza hadn’t visited, and she was done. There was no more necessary conversation. She got up, and said they’d had thirty years, and he decided to destroy it. It would never be the same. It was over, and she was done. Mike teared up (so did I), and said that wasn’t true. We went back to when Reza read Mike the texts from Tommy about how MJ was going to need surgery, and wouldn’t be able to have any more children. Mike said he texted multiple times, and Tommy said MJ couldn’t have visitors, but he’d keep them in the loop. Reza said MJ was being extra about baby pictures, as she should. There was some yelling back and forth, and Mike said he was trying to fix it, but they weren’t letting him. MJ asked what would be her reason for turning against Reza, and Reza said she’d just had a baby, and someone was willing to do her dirty work. When Ali said MJ had told him that Reza had troubles in his marriage, it sounded like something only she would know. Reza said he loved her; they were like family. That’s why he called her. MJ said Reza never loved her. We reviewed the Season Two reunion, where Reza trash talked MJ. In Persian, MJ said he was a liar from head to toe. She said he’d implied she was on something, and Mike said he’d told everyone she’d robbed a bank. Andy said, at the pool party, Reza said something he didn’t even want to repeat. He didn’t have to, because we saw the clip of Reza shouting that MJ’s uterus exploded because she’d had ten abortions, which is just a horrific thing to say. Reza said, no excuses. His behavior was disgusting. He’d apologized to her, and was crying, while she sat, stone-faced, looking at him like he was crazy. We flashed back to that, and she did seem robotic. He said he wished he could take it back, and regretted it every single day. MJ said, if he regretted it, he wouldn’t have posted what he did on Instagram. Andy said he’d posted private texts, and violated MJ’s medical privacy. We saw pictures of the posts, and Reza said they were shooting a show [where it was going to air], and he’s not a doctor. Andy told him, MJ claimed he was trying to get raise, and Reza blocked her when she was dying. Reza said he and MJ were talking all the way through; he blocked her later, after Ali made the accusations. Andy asked Mike for help, and Mike said damage had been done, but begged them to reconsider. He said Reza, being a gay, Persian, Jewish, Muslim man, they should understand each other. The Persian community was judgmental, and hearing rumors that Reza had an open, weird relationship caused problems. Reza said he loved Mike, but Mike said, f*** you. He wasn’t taking a side. They needed to continue, apologize, and fix it. They knew things about each other no one else knew, and had a bond that was beautiful and unbreakable. He asked who showed up when MJ’s dad passed away. MJ started crying, and he said, he and Reza did. They cried with her, and held her, and held her dad. We saw clips of that, with MJ saying her dad was never going to walk her down the aisle, and I cried. At the time, I had been affected by that, because my father passed away a few months before I got married. She said no one had to deal with what she did, and Mike said they still felt her pain. MJ said she thought they’d make progress today, and Mike said they did. MJ said she felt like Reza didn’t want to believe the facts, the proof, or her track record as his friend. Andy asked if she didn’t accept Reza’s apology, and she asked Reza if she came for him and his marriage. Reza said she had, and she asked if she’d ever compromised his trust during their friendship. He said, yes, and she said, then there’s not an apology. Their lives would never be the same again, like with the pandemic.
We saw clips of happier times; Reza telling MJ they were blood, and MJ standing on a bar, yelling, family! Andy wanted to end with them saying something they missed about their friendship. Reza said he missed the moments of MJ laughing. He was Robin to her Batman, and vice versa. He loved her and always would. He just wanted her to be honest. The sexual harassment accusation had never been a problem for her; coming across a certain way was more important. Andy said, what about MJ, and she said she missed every effing thing about their friendship. It was half her life. Reza said the times they had would never go away. She’d shared the best moments of his life. Now, everyone was crying. Andy told them that they’d both said horrible things. The question was if they cared enough about their thirty-year friendship to figure out a way to start over on a blank slate. MJ said she didn’t know. It was like her whole life. Off-camera, Vida said something, and MJ laughed, telling her that she wasn’t in the shot. Andy asked Vida to join them, and wondered how Vida thought they could move forward. She said honesty was important in a friendship, and there was an old Persian saying, everything is good when it’s new, except friends; friends were good when they were old. She wanted them to learn a lesson from their fight, and move forward with a positive attitude. There was another saying that one enemy is a lot, but hundreds of friends are not enough. She said friends in life were important, and Andy thought that was a great place to leave it, and hopefully next time we saw them, they’d somehow have come together and talked.
Four weeks later, Reza answered a video call. It was MJ, who said she was calling because she was willing salvage their friendship. He said he was emotionally and spiritually drained, and completely exhausted. He’d been a daze since the reunion. MJ said she felt like she’d been hit by a train, truck, plane, and planet. Reza said he did care about her, and she said she never wanted to see him be hurt. Reza said he’d learned that he didn’t communicate with her and say when he felt some sort of way. He wanted her to telepathically understand it, and got resentful when she didn’t, and the resent would grow. MJ said she was sorry he felt like she wasn’t there for him, and she 100% had his back. He said when he did try to tell her how he felt, she would shut him down, and he felt like she minimized it, and they weren’t connecting in the same way. It broke his heart. He felt like there was no time and space for it in her world. He wanted her to push his problems away, and when he thought it was a problem she could push away, she didn’t. It was heartbreaking. MJ said, aside from her husband and son, Reza was one of the most important relationships in her life. He said he was sorry he effed up and broke her heart. Nema had seen Baby Shams, and he hadn’t. MJ said Reza had held GG’s Eliza first.
He said he wished he had been the first one she saw, standing next to Tommy, when she opened her eyes in the hospital. MJ said she wanted to believe in her heart, that they could accept their differences and work through them. She didn’t want to give up on something that was more important than the past horrible year. They’d said if they had one quarter, they’d call each other if they went to jail. That was Reza’s position in MJ’s heart and head. Reza was in his own category, different from her husband. She asked if he was willing, and he said, from the bottom of his heart. She said she wanted to make an effort to salvage the friendship, and Reza said he didn’t want to act like nothing had happened, but have something pure that felt like it was real. He had no space in his heart for conflict with her. She thanked him for taking her call, and he thanked her for calling, saying it was a pleasant surprise.
It was for me too.
