Previews for the week of 29-Sep-2008
by Carol Banks Weber
**Kate was right all along, with her phobia about curses and foreboding. Kate's wedding to Sonny goes ahead beautifully, every detail in place. That is, until a gunshot makes its way into the bride's chest. Olivia's instinct is to go straight to Kate, glare at Sonny, and pray to God for the best. She is joined by Carly. Olivia won't let Kate out of her sight, all the way to General Hospital. Olivia seethes with rage against Sonny for causing this and being so deceitful about his going legit. Olivia dares Sonny to be a man and take responsibility. Jax freaks out about Carly and Morgan's welfare in the aftermath of the wedding bloodbath. Jax wants to make sure Carly and Morgan are safely ensconced in the hotel. But that doesn't mean Jax wants Carly back. He couldn't bear being hurt by her again, so he rebuffs her. A delirious Kate blathers out loud about Olivia and her secret love child with Sonny - to Patrick. Burdened with this huge paternity secret, Patrick debates with himself as to let Sonny in on it. There's another reason Olivia's by Kate's side, and it's to insure there's no blathering of the secret. Sonny goes to Jason and requires he take over the mob again, and exact retribution on those who went after Kate. Jason uses what happened to Kate to make a big impact on Elizabeth. Elizabeth doesn't care what happened to Kate. She insists it doesn't matter, she desires Jason too much. Lulu has a very bad day, which only grows worse. Johnny has to escort Lulu safely to Shadybrook, feeling sick to his stomach about what this wedding shoot-out means for his freedom. Johnny and Lulu have a run-in with Tracy. Johnny is prepared to do what's necessary, it's in his legacy after all. Lulu goes downhill, fast. Anthony makes Ric his righthand guy, entrusting the lawyer with more power and insider knowledge. Claudia keeps eyeing Ric, sure he knows more than he's telling. Ric and Claudia are definitely hot for one another. The bloodbath at Sonny and Kate's wedding scares Robin into changing her mind about marrying Patrick. Robin asks Patrick to marry her, in a very public manner. Hold that thought, Robin. Emergency calls. Patrick declines Robin's proposal, nicely. Robin talks about Patrick's response with Mac. Mac is kind to Robin. To Patrick
Mac puts the cuffs on Patrick yet again. This time, he charges Patrick and Robin with the task of working out their differences and coming to a resolution already. They do! As in I do wedding vows in their immediate future. Nikolas takes Nadine to bed. It's a lovely, tender moment. But she just can't leave well enough alone. The bets are on as to who tried to take out Kate: Karpov or Anthony. Big money's on Anthony framing Karpov, and Ric going along with it. Sonny blows a fuse when Jason won't immediately go into retaliation overdrive. Elizabeth's name is mentioned in place of Kate's as a what-if. Jason puts the fear of God into Karpov.

GH: Night Shift previewsThings look grim for Robert. It's ER time. Anna breaks land speed records to comfort Robin and Robert. A bunch of racist idiots arrive at the hospital for various ailments. The hospital staff would rather let the racist idiots rot, but they have to do their job. Not an easy task. Eric puts Kyle on the spot about his grudge against Claire and Leo. He brings up the subject of grace. **
