Victor goes to Heather to make sure she plans to prosecute Adam. Heather, however, informs Victor that her hands are tied without evidence or a confession from Adam. Later, Victor meets with Jack to see if he cares more about beating Victor than he does about taking down Adam. Meanwhile, Heather goes to Adam to make sure he knows just how close the walls are to closing in on him. Jack and Ashley continue to wonder if Adam and Taylor stole Sharon’s baby if they should tell Sharon about their theory. Meanwhile, as Adam tries to convince Sharon to stay with him, things from the night of Sharon’s labor start to come back to her and she comes to same realization herself and asks Adam if her baby is still alive. Sharon pleads with Adam to tell her where Faith is but he chooses to save himself and Sharon realizes just how devious he truly is and leaves him. Later, Sharon tells Ashley about her theory and is stunned when Ashley immediately agrees with her and promises that they will find out what happened to Sharon’s baby.

However, when J.T.’s lawyer starts to attack Victoria, J.T. immediately fires him and asks Victoria and Michael to reschedule for another time. Kevin continues to refuse to believe that Jana’s letter is real and Michael tries to play devil’s advocate but has to concede to Kevin’s point of view that Jana is too outspoken that Kevin wouldn’t know something this huge was wrong in their marriage. Meanwhile, Daisy snaps photos of Lauren and Paul’s kiss at Jimmy’s. Lauren brings Paul home and as they are reminiscing about the past, Paul is reminded of all the people is has let down. Lauren tries to make him feel better and before they know what is happening they fall into a kiss. Paul stops her, however, before things can get to far and realizes that Lauren is acting strange as she talks about Michael with no guilt or remorse for what they were about to do. Later, Lauren asks Michael to help Paul with Patty’s case, not mentioning anything that happened between them earlier. Jana tries to make a run for it when Daisy releases her in order for Jana to make a call to Kevin. As Kevin is trying to get Heather to help amp up the search for Jana, he gets a call from Jana herself. Jana is cold and disconnected as she tells him to stop looking for her and that their marriage is over. Kevin is devastated when he hangs up the phone. When Jana hangs up she tells Daisy that Kevin won’t give up no matter what she said, but Daisy tells her that she had better hope he does. Sharon and Ashley talk to the hospital, mental institution and morgue and learn that there is no file of Sharon giving birth or of a stillborn baby and Sharon realizes that her child is still alive. Meanwhile, Victor agrees to return Jabot back to Kay in order to secure Jack’s help in bringing down Adam. Jack tells Victor that he will do whatever it takes to make sure Adam gets what is coming to him.

Victor comes to see Sharon and Sharon tells him about her suspicions regarding Adam and her child. Victor tells her not to worry because he has a plan but he needs her help. Sharon agrees but asks that she be the one to tell Nick that their child is alive. Meanwhile, Heather approaches Rafe to talk to him about Adam wanting to know the real reasons behind all of his devious actions last summer. Later, Billy is furious when he learns that Adam was the one behind terrorizing Ashley, not Patty. Adam meets with a man named Richard Hightower at a fast food joint and Richard embraces Adam like a family member, thanking him profusely. As Adam and Richard are talking, Richard’s son comes in and Adam realizes that he can’t go through with whatever he had planned. Later, Adam returns to Sharon’s suite and finds himself completely alone. Victor goes to see Nick as he and Phyllis are leaving Victoria with the children on their way out for a date. He tells them that he confronted Adam and now he needs their help to bring Adam down. Meanwhile, Jack tells Ashley and Billy about his and Victor’s plan and although they are weary that Jack is teaming up with Victor they realize that Adam needs to be stopped. Billy offers to bring Rafe on board to help their legal cause as well. While trying to put the past behind them, Rafe and Heather both get calls from Billy and Phyllis asking them to meet them at the G.C.A.C. to discuss Adam and they realize something big is going on.

Ashley makes a promise to Sharon to do everything she can to help her get her child back to her. Meanwhile, Billy and Phyllis plead with Heather and Rafe for their help in making Adam pay for his crimes, no matter what. At the Abbott cabin, Sharon drops the bomb on Nick that she believes their child is still alive. Later, Victor promises that he won’t fail to protect his family from Adam again. Meanwhile, Victoria and Billy run into each other and as they are talking Billy tells Victoria about the time he saw Adam at the funeral home and they wonder where that fits into the puzzle. Sharon calls Adam to come to the cabin and she and Nick lay in wait for him to get the truth. Meanwhile, after talking to Rafe, Heather decides to help the Newmans and the Abbotts in their plan against Adam. Later, Adam arrives at the cabin to face Sharon. He pleads with her, telling her that he can change if only she will she will stay with him. Nearby, Nick sends a text to someone unseen. As Phyllis’s cell vibrates and learns that Adam is at the cabin and tells Victoria, who signals Billy and the plan is set into motion. Victor, set in shadows, at the Abbott cabin, looks at an old photo of him an Adam. As Adam continues to plead with Sharon, she tells him she is sorry just as someone clocks him over the head and falls into the snow unconscious.

At Immigration, Jill and Kay promise to look out for Lily for Cane and to stick together as family until he comes back.

Meanwhile, Tucker is furious as he finishes his deal with Kay and sees the article in Restless Style, wondering if Kay has just played him. Nick and Billy prepare to take on their roles in this battle as everyone is polled and Adam is found unanimously guilty. He pleads with Sharon on last time for her mercy but Nick has had enough and Victor and Jack wonder if they should stop him as Adam promises that he will help Sharon find her child if she is out there. In that moment, Phyllis arrives with the truth. Phyllis tells them about the letter Taylor dictated and gives it to Ashley. Ashley tentatively reads the letter and freaks out, not believing it. As Victor reads the letter to the group, Adam jumps on it, hoping to ally himself with Ashley, promising her that she knows what happened the night he delivered Faith. However, it all comes crashing down when Ashley remembers falling down the stairs, and finally realizes that it was Adam impersonating Sabrina. Ashley recounts that night for everyone as they all slow come to the conclusion that Taylor was telling the truth and Nick and Sharon finally settle on the truth that Ashley must have their daughter. Sharon nearly faints from the enormity of their realization and Nick rushes to her side, as Ashley collapses to the floor. Phyllis slips out of the cabin, unseen and Victoria helps her get away, knowing how difficult it must have been for her to tell the truth. Victor, seeing Ashley’s pain, attacks Adam, wanting the truth once and for all but Adam continues to play the victim. Later, Nick realizes Phyllis is gone and is caught off guard when Victoria tells him that she had to leave. Meanwhile, Phyllis curses herself for pushing to figure out what Adam was up to knowing now what it could end up costing her. Ashley’s denial continues as she refuses to entertain the thought that Faith could be Sharon and Nick’s child as Victor prepares himself to lose not just one but two children. Nikki offers to let Sharon stay with her and Victor while she and Nick try to sort things out in regards to Faith. As Sharon is leaving, Adam tries one last time to reach out to her but Sharon completely shuts him out and Victor promises to deal with him. Later, Nick comes home and Phyllis steals herself for what he has to tell her. Both Ashley and Sharon remained convinced that Faith is their child. At the cabin, Adam begins to panic and while Victor and Jack aren’t aware Adam grabs the fire poker and manages to get out the door and into the woods as the men go after him.

Days Of Our Lives

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Marlena Looks Back at 50 Years in Salem

Published

on

By

The June 22 episode of Days of Our Lives reminded us all of why Deidre Hall is iconic in the role of Dr. Marlena Evans. Here we are 50 years later, and Marlena is still the heroine of the long-running soap opera, and Deidre remains one of the most most recognizable names in the history of soaps.

To pay tribute, and to look back at the life and times of Marlena, the story starts with Marlena flipping through a photo album of her with John (the late Drake Hogestyn) over the years. As she misses him dearly, she gets a knock on the door and its none other than John’s son, Paul Narita (Christopher Sean).

With Andrew (Colton Little) in Salem working on a case, he sits down with Marlena, who says she can’t believe its been fifty years since she first arrived in Salem! Cue: Deidre’s first scenes on DAYS when she finds Mickey Horton (the late John Clarke) playing chess against himself inside the mental institution she worked.

THE FLASHBACKS OF MARLENA’S LIFE

From there, viewers definitely got the cliff notes version of the history of Marlena and entrenched within them, some of the biggest moments in Deidre’s enduring run.

Paul thinks he is looking at 70s, and early 80s Marlena while going through her scrapbook, but he is actually looking at her twin, Samantha (Andrea Hall)Cue: when Marlena confronted Samantha about impersonating her, and then later getting a call on her radio show from the Salem Strangler (Jack Coleman as Jake Kostichek) who killed Samantha thinking it was Marlena.

In the present, Belle (Martha Madison) has arrived at this time to meet up with Paul, unaware of this trip down memory lane. She wants to go over the findings in the chess board mystery Stefano willed to Marlena and John, in private with him, since Marlena previously said she wanted nothing to do with it.

Back to the history lesson, Marlena speaks highly of Don Craig and even though their marriage didn’t work out, she could find a path forward with the new love her life, Roman Brady. (Wayne Northrop however is never shown, possibly to keep the story focused on John as Roman for confusion sakes?)

Paul sees a photo of a young Carrie (Christie Clark) in the album and Marlena says she was such a godsend after losing her baby. In fact, Marlena says caring for Carrie prepared her for her having and raising her own twins, Eric and Sami. Cue: The twin visiting Marlena in the hospital.

JOHN AND MARLENA’S LOVE CONQUERED ALL

Then, in a way to get through and incorporate the wild storylines only Marlena could have been in, she tells Belle and Paul, she has been through so much in her life, how lucky she was to find John, and some of the most unbelievable experiences no one could imagine. Cue: Marlena possessed by the devil and levitating from the bed. Next, John confronting Marlena being the Salem Stalker, where she admits she killed Alice Horton, pretends she needs help, then pulls a gun on her beloved John!

The comment is made by Paul and Marlena, that she literally has been to hell and back and she could not have survived were it not for her beloved John. Cue the big emotional highpoint clips; The Pier Scene! Marlena steps out of the fog when John sees her from a distance. After believing she was dead for four years, here she was before him in one of the greatest reunions in a soap opera love story in history. What followed were other times of the life of times of Jarlena.

MARLENA’S ‘GIFT’ FROM STEFANO HAS A NEW CLUE

When Marlena makes a brief exit to the other room, Belle fills in Paul on the chess set Stefano left her mother and the photo of the Lire. Paul said he will investigate. Marlena comes back into the room and overhears, and says to promise her if things get dangerous he will back off, she does not want anyone hurt by Stefano’s games.

As the episode comes to a conclusion, it’s just Belle and Marlena going through the photo album giggling about 70s hairstyles and all the memories. Belle speaks on the impact Marlena has had in everyone’s lives, and that she is both the heart of their family and the heart of Salem.

An end card comes up acknowledging Deidre Hall’s 50th anniversary as Marlena, and we fade to black.

So, what did you think of Marlena’s walk down memory lane? Were you happy to see the flashback clips utilized throughout? Were you touched by the scenes and the performance of Deidre Hall? Let us know what you thought of Deidre’s 50th anniversary episode via the comment section below.

Published

on

By

On the Thursday, June 18 episode of General Hospital, Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) makes his shocking return right in Port Charles, after fleeing (thanks to Cassius) to supposedly parts unknown to escape capture for trying to kill Dr. Lucas Jones (Van Hansis).

How does he show up in town? First, Ezra (Daniel Cosgrove) gets a text from Jacinda (Paige Herschell) to meet in his hotel room. Ezra thinks the two are going to have a sexcapade so he puts champagne on ice for his favorite escort.

Suddenly, there is a knock at the door. Ezra’s excitement turns towards fear as instead of Jacinda, Sidwell is standing in front of him. Next, Sidwell blackmails Boyle telling him he has plenty of leverage he can use against him. Sidwell wants to use Ezra to help him takedown, Sonny (Maurice Benard), Lucas, Laura (Genie Francis) and Cullum.

ARE SIDWELL’S DAYS NUMBERED?

Meanwhile, Sonny confides in his brother, Ric (Rick Hearst). He says he knows who killed Marco an he is going to use that intel to lure Sidwell out of hiding.  Sonny also shares he is going to kill Sidwell, and handle this by himself. He gave the PCPD a chance, but they failed to nab Sidwell for good and lock him up.

Sonny also has been tracking the whereabouts of Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) and Rocco (Finn Carr) through Brick, and learned they took a flight to San Juan, Puerto Rico, and then boarded a fairy to take them somewhere off the island.

BRITT’S ‘SYMPTOMS’ RETURN

Turns out, Britt and Rocco are hiding out in the British Virgin Islands. Britt set up Rocco with a burner phone and a VPN on her tablet, that is not traceable. Rocco reads on the tablet about Lucas’ shooting. Britt starts to have the shakes and passes out. When she comes to, Britt won’t let Rocco call a doctor, but he uses his phone to step on the balcony and call Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) and ask for help. Charlotte looks shocked to hear from her brother as Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) looks on!

However, Joe (Jonathan Bennett) could be the one to put two and two together! While at General Hospital and after questioning Lucas about a syringe he found that was in someone’s possession. the toxicology report showed traces of saline solution, not actual medication. He asks Dr. Jones, why someone would inject themselves with saline? Lucas responds saline is harmless and would have no effect on someone.

So, does this mean that this entire time, Britt has been led to believe that the medication she was taking to treat her Huntington’s disease was placebo? Has Britt been lied to into believing she is dying? Is something else wrong with her instead?

Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below, and if you are ready for Sidwell to finally get his comeuppance from Sonny! But first, watch the scenes where Sidwell comes out of hiding and blackmails Ezra Boyle.

General Hospital

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Dante and ‘Nathan’ Have It Out, Valentin and Carly Share Passionate Moments Which May Be Their Last

Published

on

By

On the June 16 episode of General Hospital, the PCPD under acting police commissioner Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) is in a bit of mess and does not go unnoticed by ADA Turner (Nazneen Contractor).

First, there is the whole Chase (Josh Swickard) defending Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) over Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot), who he arrested for allegedly tossing Willow in the waters next to the Quartermaine boathouse. Turner has had it with Chase’s good guy act and how he tampered with evidence in her case against Willow for shooting Drew.

Later, Dante and Justine question “Nathan” (Ryan Paevey) about Sidwell’s escape while in his custody. Turner is not buying his cover story that he was ambushed by Sidwell and his men. Once “Nathan” left the interrogation room, Turner went in on Dante about having “Nathan” on the force after seven years away, and Chase she views as a “dirty cop.”

However, Dante defends both of his officers, but Justine warned that “Nathan” and Chase’s behavior would reflect poorly on Dante as commissioner and she should really think about that. Later, Dante has a terse confrontation with “Nathan” on how he botched a prison transport and that he better watch his back as Justine is one step away from turning this over to Internal Affairs.

COP MADNESS

Next, “Nathan” apologizes for the way he handled the situation with Rocco and says he feels badly. But then in the twist, Dante said that he was grateful that “Nathan” had been there for his son in his time of need (referencing after Rocco shot Cullum and covered it up).

Then, there’s the newest police officer in the precinct, Joe Fitzpatrick (Jonathan Bennett). He may actually be on to “Nathan’s” double life when he questions him about a syringe found in Britt’s room at Bobbie’s. “Nathan” made up a story to counter Joe’s, that he was not aware that his sister was taking anything for her Huntington’s disease diagnosis. Joe called the forensic department lab wanting to know what drug was exactly in the syringe.

BEFORE YOU GO

At Carly’s (Laura Wright), Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) tells her that he must travel to Geneva to speak to the head of the WSB, named Z. Valentin feels it’s the only way to save Josslyn if he informs Z about Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) being a double agent. Valentin shares with Carly that he has to stop Cullum from bringing his dangerous cold fusion device online. Carly is beside herself. She doesn’t want Valentin to sacrifice himself by turning himself into the organization who has made him a fugitive in the first place. Valentin stands firm that he must meet Z in person.

Knowing that revealing himself to the WSB meant he was likely going back to prison, Valentin asked Carly if she’d get in touch with his daughter, Charlotte so he could say good-bye to her. Next, Carly and Valentin make their way to the bedroom to make love, which may be for the very last time, if Valentin is caught and put back in Steinmauer Maximum Security Prison.

CAUGHT BY CULLUM

At the same time while at Wydemere, Cullum is talking with one of his WSB operatives. Now, he is pondering if Valentin and Sidwell were working together all along.  Next, Cullum entertains the idea of involving the FBI to locate Britt and Rocco. He says he plans to kill them both once he knows of their whereabouts. Cullum sees the only other threat to the completion of the cold fusion project to be Anna Devane.

Cullum wants to track the location of the unidentified person who called the private clinic in France trying to get in touch with Anna, while pretending to be Kevin Collins. When the agent came back with a report, he says it emanated from a cell tower near Shoreline Road. It’s in the that moment that a light bulb goes on for Cullum! Valentin is in Port Charles and hiding at Carly’s!

So, what do you think of the PCPD cops, Chase, Joe and “Nathan?” Who should Dante fire? Do you think Valentin will go the run?Are you digging Carly and Valentin’s relationship and want it to continue, especially with Finola Hughes on her way back as Anna next month on-screen? Weigh-in via the comment section, and in case you missed it, you can check out our latest interview with Dominic Zamprogna below from his appearance on the Michael Fairman Channel, where he talks the PCPD cops, Rocco on the run, and more.
