I was hoping the patient was Gigi, but after seeing how bad she wants to get out of OLTL and take JPL with her, I am hoping it is Stacy…..with Crystal Hunts actual face.

Yeah, she does seem kinda bitter, doesn’t she? You know, after all of the great on-going story lines that she has been afforded over the years at OLTL, you would think she would be a little more gracious. Since she came on the scene, she has had one story line after the other… I’m kinda hoping to see Crystal’s face now too. I don’t think Farah doing that Dirty Soap show was a good idea, being that she is showing her true colors. I like Gigi a lot more than Farah….lol

It’s already been revealed that the mystery patient is Stacy since Kim said “That was a close one, Stacy!” after Kim distracted Rex from seeing Stacy in her hospital room! Stacy may also had plastic surgery to get Gigi’s face after Kim’s brother Cutter saw something shocking about how Stacy looked when he first saw her!

I love Kurt McKinney & I’m also thinking that the mystery patient is “Stacy” as played by Crystal Hunt! 🙂

Stacy, really? Why? What is this fixation of not allowing characters to die and remain dead? I know it is a soap staple but even pizza and beer grow tiresome when you have it every night! And does anyone else find it a tad ironic the title of this drama is ONE LIFE TO LIVE. Heck! Seems like you are good for two or three in Llanview PA!! 🙂

Cool that Kurt is coming to OLTL. It would be funny if he shared scenes with Wendy Moniz (the new mayor) since they were Matt and Dinah on Guiding Light. And that Kim Zimmer and Jerry Ver Dorn are on there also!
