Becky's waking up with a hell of a hangover today, huh? And poor Dante, he wanted some booty but took the chivalrous route and decided not to take advantage of her. I hadn't realized Molly and Nik were related; I usually forget since they never interact with each other. It's good to see older characters interacting with younger ones, and not only so that they can sabotage others or scold the younger ones. Molly and Nik are actually having a conversation, which is a change from the usual route soaps take when putting the younger ones with the older characters. How funny is it that Alexis scolds Molly immediately but thinks Kristina's perfect and is taking the rap for something that her 'perfect daughter' did.
Carly walked in on a heated discussion between Olivia and Dante's partner at the hip new place to be, the Port Chuck Laundr-O-Mat. Clothes have never been so dirty. lol And how much laundry does this guy need, anyway? Everytime I see him he's in either the same outfit or something so similar I have to do a double take just to ensure myself it's not the same outfit. He's forever washing clothes. He must have alot of quarters. Anyway, the partner seemingly covered his tracks, but our Caroline is no fool. She knows Olivia's keeping something from her. Olivia's not a good liar. At all. You know that saying, 'the eyes don't lie?' or 'the eyes speak what the mouth will not?' Olivia needs to have both tattooed on her ass. And scouting new washers and dryers at a rundown laundromat for an upscale hotel is a really rotten cover. Carly may have acted like she let the issue drop, but she's a persistent one. She's not going to completely let it go. Carly's better half, however, knows that Olivia's son, Dante, is the undercover cop in Sonny's organization and that he is Sonny's child as well. I wonder what he's going to do with that information. He is of the same mind as Olivia and most of Port Charles for that matter, in that Sonny's parenting skills need alot of work and he understands the need to protect one's children. On the other hand, I believe Jax is a stand up guy at heart, even if his actions don't display that at times, and I think he'd want any father, even Sonny, to know about his child. I wonder why Dante hasn't shared any time on screen with his cousin Connie. He hasn't even mentioned her, now that I'm thinking about it. Port Chuck is a small town, but not that small.
In comedic ER scenes of the day, Lulu glued her hand to her hair, which prompted Matt to tell her about him gluing his lips together in college. Dante figured it out immediately upon seeing her at the hospital and called her on it. I gotta admit, I kinda like Matt and Lulu together, but it looks like they're going to be testing Dante and Lulu together for the time being. I've made it no secret that I liked Johnny and Lulu together and it pissed me off that they broke up, so I will probably always like them better. This thing with Dante is no Johnny and Lulu, Runaway Love kinda thing, but I could get used to something different. I wonder how Johnny will react to possibly seeing Lulu with someone new. Lulu's had to watch Johnny with Maxie, even before they broke up, and she was a factor in their eventual parting. Then she had to watch him with Olivia, and that's just way too tied in here. Her boyfriend was almost hooking up with her co-worker, now he's moved on to her boss' cousin, who happens to be the manager at her own cousin's hotel. What a tangled web, huh? My point is that Lulu has had to watch Johnny pay her no mind and move on to other women and she's had nobody since then, save for the day or two Luke had her pretending to date Ethan to get Tracy to spill the beans. It will be nice to see the shoe on the other foot; I wonder if seeing Lulu with Dante, especially since he's a supposed fellow mobster, will make Johnny squirm, at least for a little while. It would probably piss her off a little to learn that his mother is Johnny's new girlfriend and her cousin's ex-husband's long-lost son. Again, just a little too connected here.
Johnny made a huge misstep by talking about Olivia's sack skills and got decked for it by Dante. Too funny. It was so unexpected but I had a feeling it was coming at some point; not only does Dante seem protective of his mother anyway, he doesn't like anything Johnny or guys like Johnny stand for. There was bound to be a punch sometime. Add that to the fact that this guy is dating his mother and is the ex-boyfriend of a girl he's beginning to dig on? Johnny's really not racking up the points here, is he? At least Sonny's redemption point is that he's Dante's father and was just as in the dark as Dante was. Of course, this being the soap world and everything, Olivia's going to be the martyr, the protective mother who kept her child from a life of sin and raised him to be the exact opposite of his father, while Sonny's gonna be dodging tomatoes again for being a deadbeat dad and not coming back to Bensonhurst to see if he had a kid layin around anywhere. That's usually the way it goes. Instead of being angry at Olivia, Dante will be mad at Sonny instead. Sigh....I hope it doesn't turn out that way. For once, let's not blame Sonny. He'll make up for us giving him that leeway by messing up again at some point anyway.
Lucky decided to give Elizabeth the martyr role of helping Nik but doesn't realize she'd just shared a really steamy kiss with the Brooding Prince. Btw, how hot was that? Liz says it shouldn't happen again, but the look in her eyes told me that not only would she not be angry if it did happen again, she was probably thinking about the last time it happened when she was saying that it can't happen anymore. The problem is, I don't think they want to stay away from each other, which is why Liz isn't fighting the issue of staying with Nik so much. Some would say that the Maternal One is a rebound or that Nik's using her to blunt the pain that Rebecca caused and I would be more liable to go with the latter option, but a bigger thing is that this is years of attraction and tension finally coming to the surface. Before, someone was always in the way, whether it was Emily, Jason, Nadine, Lucky, or their long-lasting friendship with each other. Let's see how long that's gonna last. Naturally, since Jason's gonna get busy this week, Liz's time is coming too.
Lines of the day:
"You're kinda sweet....in a completely obnoxious kinda way." --Rebecca, to Dante
"I'm not proud of what I did, but it's not like I ran an old lady or a pregnant woman off the road." -Rebecca, to Alexis and Nikolas
Randoms:
1)Where's Becky's biker vibe? 2)Um, where's Maxie? Wait...where's Claudia? 3)Matt needs a woman. 4)I was wondering when the whole Kate blackmail thing was going. Nice to see they've picked it back up. 5)Let's take bets on how long it'll take Jax to tell Carly or Sonny about Dante being Sonny's child.
