Of Moose and Men

Recap: May 5th--May 6th

Our evening begins with Jason and Spinelli tracking down Ian Devlin for answers regarding Michael's shooting. Little do they know, there is a stowaway on board.

After giving Jason a million dollar smile, Spinelli actually gets to drive the Mob Mobile.

"Look mom! I'm driving with my eyes closed!"

He drives too slow for Stone Cold's tastes, looking out for baby moose and lizards on the road. Jason irritation at the grasshopper's cautionary driving is tested when Spinelli has to slam on the brakes as a moose gets in front of the SUV. As he does this, he flings Maxie out of her hiding spot in the back seat. She decided to stoaway for the night's adventure.

To say the least, Jason is not pleased. He drops her off at a bus stop. Jason then tells Spinelli to frisk Maxie for the keys she stole to get into the SUV. The Jackal falters a little. Turns out Maxie had the keys hidden in her shirt...Hmmm...Anyway, Jason wants to get a move on. Spinelli tells her that he cannot abandon Jason at that moment and stay with her at the bus stop because Stone Cold is out for revenge and very emotional, and since Jason has never left him in his hour of need Spinelli cannot do the same.

On the road, Spinelli confesses to Jason that he is actually in love with Maximista. Jason is surprised and asks "What about Lulu?". Spinelli explains that he loves the Original Blonde One as a dear friend but his heart no longer races for her. Maxie has him under her spell but he doubts she will ever look on him with affection. Jason warns Spinelli that he once knew a woman once like Maxie who had a way of destroying the things she loved. Spinelli seems genuinely aware of the risk involved with loving a girl like Maxie.

Back at the bus stop, Maxie has been taken hostage by Ian. She sends a text message to Spinelli for help. Jason and Spinelli arrive just as things are getting tense between the doctor and Maxie. Spinelli begs Ian not to hurt her. Ian confesses to shooting Michael but won't say who hired him. He is distracted long enough for Maxie free herself from him. Jason shoots Ian as Maxie runs into Spinelli's arms.

Afterwards, the police arrive and Maxie explains to Mac what happened, how Jason shot Ian, but then adds that Spinelli did most of the saving. Our Jackal couldn't be more pleased by her comments.

Spin wants to know the secret of Jason's Mojo.

Jason compares SOMEONE to Maxie...

JASON:(to Spin) I used to know someone kinda like Maxie. She, uh, cause a lot of damage and some people hated her but no one ever hurt her as badly as she hurt herself. It's kinda like Maxie. I mean, she isn't afraid to go after what she wants but, you know, some people, once they get what they love, they can't help but destroy it.

Spikey here..

So who is Jason talking about in this? If it's Carly, then I'm making my UGH face. I get that they both do this kind of self destruct thing, but I just can't deal with another Carly on this show. We've already got three of them with Claudia, Carly and Lulu.

Maxie needs to be Maxie.

Still, because it's no secret that the current PTB tend to recycle, There was some speculation that Spin's life is a parallel of Jason's.

Thoroughly Conkissed

April 31st--May 1st

This was an demanding soap day for our esteemed Jackal. He demonstrated all of his skills: looking good in a suit, making a scene, Jackaling to save the day, and getting caught between a rock and and blond place.

Spinelli joined Alexis and Diane "in disguise" (a.k.a. fancy hair and clothes) in the courtroom at Anthony Zacchara's trial to determine if he was mentally sane or not. The dynamic lawyer lady duo was skeptical of his being there to say the least. As the the trial began, The Jackal burst from his seat and cried "Objection!", confusing all in the room.

Even Ric (Darth) Lansing couldn't stop Spinelli from going on his theatrical rant about what a danger to society Anthony Zacchara really is. Onlookers were either confused or amused by Spinelli's zeal. One person not even slightly amused was the judge, quickly ordering The Jackal be taken from room either by his own doing or with the aid of an officer. Spinelli chose to leave of his own accord rather than be hauled off to the PCPD. He then clapped Alexis on the shoulders, declaring that the judge was now ready and warmed up. Perhaps causing a distraction was his intention, because Alexis then called for a stall in the trial.

Meanwhile, back at the farm, Maxie is having a major meltdown. She deleted an important email at Crimson in order for Lulu to look bad, but Kate decided to blame both her and Lulu for the loss of important information. Maxie calls Spinelli, desperate that he come and help her retrieve the email before she loses her dream job.

Lulu and Maxie bicker, discussing who is really using Spinelli. Spinelli arrives in the midst of another war of the words. Lulu tells Spinelli that Maxie isn't his real friend. Maxie retorts that Lulu is only jealous and that Lulu treats Spinelli like a toy. Maxie then adds "...but you are not a toy to me, Spinelli", planting a kiss right on a very shocked Jackal. Lulu watches on, perhaps even more shocked at what she is seeing than Spinelli.

Maxie explains to Spinelli that her kiss proves she cares about him. Spinelli replies that he is "thoroughly conkissed --er-- convinced!". Lulu tells Spinelli that the kiss obviously meant nothing. The Jackal took exception to Lulu's "most ill-informed opinion", putting her in her place. He told Lulu that her words were beneath her and that she has made mistakes in her life too. Just as Lulu is not defined by her mistakes, Maxie isn't either. Very wise words from the Jackal, words that Lulu does not want to hear. She informs Spinelli that he is just Maxie's latest sucker, to which the Jackal replied, "...You don't think very much of me do you?"

"You don't think very much of me, do you?"

Lulu assured him that wasn't the case at all, that his trusting nature was simply being manipulated by Maxie. The arguement went nowhere, Maxie and Lulu fighting over history while Spinelli listened silently. He then took on the task of retrieving the lost email that brought him to the office in the first place. Kate the Fashionista doubted his abilities at first, but of course The Jackal and his mad computer skills triumphed and recovered the email before either Lulu or Maxie lost their job. As Spinelli left, both girls thanked him for his help. Lulu assured him that she wasn't mad at him at all and Maxie walked Spinelli out hand in hand.

What is Lulu thinking?

Soap columnist Lynda Hirsch speaks out on the Emmys

The most glaring omission this year -- maybe any year -- is Bradford Anderson (GH's Spinelli). The actor took a three-week role and turned it into a leading character. This guy has to memorize the most outlandish dialogue. Even when playing the fool, he is anything but. Unlike many actors, he does not need to act suave. Even when given the chance to be a hero, Anderson always lets that little "who, me?" edge come through..

The Madcap Adventures of Maxinista & the Jackal

In review on Monday and Tuesday episdoes I just can't help but smile.

The Jackal realizes that Dr Ian is going to try and make a break for it. Maxie and Spin originally plan to get Mac to arrest him with evidence that Spin will find.. Sadly Our fearless hero does not find enough. So Spin and Maxie make a distraction by getting Dr Ian to accompany Spin who is faking illness to the hospital. The they disable Dr Ian with a sedative. Then proceed to attempt stash the doc.

Wow its sounds funny even when I write that out. They end up in the morgue. The Jackal needs a computer terminal to arrange a 'spot' for Ian in the psych ward. Sadly all seeing Epiphany 'catches' them in the morgue.

Maxie then proceeds to weave one of her great tales. Epiphany does not buy it. She sees the computer and she sends them on there way. She does not see Ian though. They return they hear a drill and rush in worried they are 'working' on Ian.

The poor Jackal can't handle the gore and he passes out. He wakes up to the Maxinesta playing with his hair AGAIN.

Sadly Ian is gone and there is no sign of him. (he was not the body being worked on) they return back to the penthouse to brain storm and track Dr Ian down. They then proceed to have a wonderful discussion about each other. They complement each other both, it was very sweet. You can tell they both have a lot of respect for each other. Some time during their discussion Maxie takes a swig off Spinelli's orange soda. A very simple but very telling thing to do.

Lulu though ends up breaking up the moment. She been dumbed or she dumb or something happened with Johnny. Anyways she needs the Jackal's world famous touch and Lulu is surprised that Spinelli is not only not waiting around for her but is hanging out with none other then the great Maxinista herself. Spinelli won't share with what he is doing with Maxie. Lulu gives up and leaves but not with out having a talk with Maxie 'outside' the Jackal with his stealth skills listens to part of the conversation. Do you think he realized he had two women 'fighting' over him?

*GASP!* Daytime Emmy Nominations

The official nominees for the Daytime Emmy Awards were announced today, and while Bradford earned a pre-nomination for General Hospital, he was overlooked for the official nomination.

It's OK Bradford, you know we love you, we're proud of you, and will support you always! You know you are Best Supporting Actor in our hearts :)

OMG did you see that

Ok I was away last week.. Yes really all of last week amazing spixieness I was away... Well on a plus side we had an AMAZING family vacation. So I am catching up right now.

My sister who we where staying with started to tease me and said Spinelli touched Maxie breast on purpose.

When she told me I said "My Spin would NEVER so that on purpose"
We had a disagreement over it for at least an hour.

See Maxie had the response I did.....

Also last week we had the adventures at Ian's apartment. Some of the funniest stuff in a long time. You think Jason is starting to get that Maxie is turning into a fixture in Spinelli's life? Is he jealous?

Oh and lets not forget when Spinelli went to the office to meet up with Maxie and Lulu thought he was there for her. You think she going to start to realize?
