A House of Cards: GH

On Monday's General Hospital Sam talked to Kristina about the importance of taking responsibility for her actions, while Jason tried to convince Michael to come home, telling him that he had proof he did not cause Claudia's accident. Ultimately Sam's conversation with Kristina was successful, but it took Kristina to convince Michael to come home.

Meanwhile in Port Charles, Claudia overheard Sonny and Alexis discussing their plans to cover-up the fact that Kristina was the one who ran her off the road. Claudia became furious, but hid her feelings from everyone except Johnny. She even managed to maintain her composure when Sonny told her that he and Alexis did not want Kristina to accept blame for the accident, proving once again that Claudia is more like her father than she realizes.

Sonny made another pivotal decision that same night when he decided to appoint Dominic, aka Dante, as a bodyguard for Michael and Morgan, primarily as a way of ensuring that Michael's impulses did not create problems. Jax, however, disagreed with this plan, causing Carly to wonder what he was keeping from her. The question Carly needs to ask herself at this point is what isn't he keeping from her?

Elsewhere, Kristina's abusive boyfriend continued to befriend Molly in an effort to find out information about Kristina. Alexis showed up in time to talk with Kiefer herself, who asked her if it was okay to continue seeing Kristina. And of course Alexis, being no better at judging character than her daughters, approved. This is not surprising though, considering that Kiefer told her everything she wanted to hear. He talked to her about his future, plans that involved going to Harvard and becoming a doctor. He then proceeded to talk to her about Michael's negative influence over Kristina, something Alexis had already remarked about to Sonny earlier.

Kiefer is beginning to behave exactly like someone with an abusive personality. First he made sure that Kristina relied on him by helping her cover-up the accident. She then felt indebted to him, even grateful, feelings that for Kristina easily overshadowed what it felt like when he hit her. Now he is attempting to drive a wedge between her and Michael, arguably the most influential person in her life, and the first person who saw him for what he really is.

All About Mia: DOOL

After months of allowing herself to be deceived and manipulated by Nicole and Stefano so that she could keep her baby's adoption intact, only to find out that said baby wasn't hers because her baby had died, one would think that Mia would have enough drama to last a lifetime. Instead it seems that she has picked up a few bad habits from Nicole because she has turned to manipulating Gabi in order to stake her claim on Chad, someone she didn't seem to want a few weeks ago. As if the Mia character wasn't irritating enough already, this newly calculative Mia is actually making me feel sorry for Gabi, which only makes her that much more irritating. I was stunned that she used Nicole's hearing as an opportunity to drive a wedge between Chad and Gabi, the same hearing that they were discussing her baby's death and the kidnapping of Will's baby sister. In doing this she not only undermined Will's importance in her life, but Sydney and Grace's as well...and p...

False Accusations: GH

When I watched Friday's GH I was positive Carly destroyed Brenda's wedding dress. She's been acting a little crazy lately anyway and I was sure that Michael's problems finally pushed her over the edge when I heard her conversation with Sonny. I'm sure there was a big part of her that thought it was in Michael's best interest to tell Sonny what happened to him. However it was clear that her primary motivation for talking to Sonny before Michael had a chance to was to make sure he blamed Dante. When that didn't happen she turned her attention to Brenda, implying that she would hurt Sonny, which would in turn hurt Michael. Of course Brenda hurting Sonny is primarily contingent on Carly telling him about Brenda's baby at the wedding. Carly is so worried about how Sonny's reaction to hearing this news will affect Michael, yet she is the one who insists on delivering it and in the worst possible way. Obviously Carly has issues with Brenda and with seeing ...
