The carnival looks like a lot of fun! It looks like they have some really good rides. It’s a shame that it is all going to end in total disaster.  Andrea after three attempts gets Edward to drink the poisoned martini. That was a close one Andrea.  I didn’t think you were ever going to get the job done!  Edward is anxious to meet his lady friend, Dierdra Evans, in a hotel room at the Metro Court. Deirdra purchases a red negligee at the hotel boutique and orders chilled champagne to the room. Really?!?  Is it possible that Edward is still getting some action?? Dierdra’s business partner has hired Sam to investigate her because he suspects her of some wrong doing. Jason is tagging along to help Sam with her surveillance. Really Jason!?  You have nothing else going on then to hang out with Sam while she is working. I’m thinking you want to see a little action today as well. Sonny meets the kids at the carnival and even lets niece Molly tag along.  Sonny I love you: but who wears grey slacks to a carnival.  It is quite interesting that Alexis never lets the kids hang out with Sonny and she chooses the carnival of all places to make an exception.  Molly manages to take down Patrick, Ethan, Dominic, and Johnny in the dunk tank when no one else could.  Who was totally not hot while they were being dunked? Ethan!!  I just can’t deal with his swarmy ponytail. I’m sorry, that was kind of mean of me.  Ethan is nice enough to volunteer his time for a worthy cause and I am being nasty. I should me ashamed of myself. Kristina goes to the fortune teller and she is told that she is in immediate danger!! Matt has to ditch Lulu because he is called to the hospital for ER duty.  Good because I have a feeling the ER is going to be really busy a little later!!  So Dominic swoops in to escort Lulu back to the carnival. Claudia sees Kristina kissing Kiefer.  Hello!!  Mob Dad totally doesn’t approve of Kiefer! Pretending to be the supportive step mom, Claudia suggests they ride the ferris wheel so they can chat in private.  Oh good god!  Claudia wouldn’t push her off the ride, would she?? Kristina you just killed her baby; why would you go 50 feet in the air with this woman? Did you not hear the fortune teller?   Anthony Zachara is up to something because as he is talking craziness in prison about Sonny, you see his men with an arsenal of weapons.  We know that Edward is going to crash into the crowd with his car! Are Anthony’s men going to shoot up the carnival? What kind of mobster would do this?  It’s a carnival for crying out loud!  There is cotton candy and funnel cake, what is wrong with you people?? Is Claudia going to hurt Kristina?  How many things can happen at one carnival?  Carly you may want to make your rounds and collect some of the money that has been raised before the shit hits the fan!!

Andrea drugs Edward’s martini while they are sitting at the Metro Court bar. I just have a couple of concerns.  First, it is morning Edward and you are already hitting the gin! Second, no one saw Andrea drug your drink?  You are the only two at the bar! Where is the bartender??  Just like my friend Lisa, Spinelli is deathly afraid of clowns and does not want to go to the carnival! In an effort to face his fears Maxi suggests that Spinelli dress as a clown. Yeah…I am not going to suggest the same for my friend. Robin can place Edward at the Metro Court the night of the Brianna Hughes murder. It seems Edward rented a room under an assumed name, J.L. Holt.  For those of you that were GH fans back in the day, Jimmy Lee Holt was Edward’s illegitimate son (well one of them anyway)! Edward you sly old fox what the heck are you doing in a hotel room? When a blonde woman walks into the bar, Edward spills his drink all over Andrea and then joins the blonde at a table.  Nice try Andrea! It seems this attempt to poison Edward has failed!! Rebecca wears the red dress (like Emily’s) that Nikolas gave to her and Elizabeth calls him out on it!!  Lulu is asked to the carnival by Dominic and Matt Hunter.   Lulu in her attempts not to seem interested in Dominic says yes to Matt. Why does everyone need a date to the carnival?  It’s weird.  I have been to a lot of carnivals and I never had a date.  Perhaps it is different when the carnival is for a hospital fundraiser and not at the local mall!! Even Anthony Zachara in his orange prison jump suit is interested in going to the carnival.  I am not even sure how he heard about it. I guess it is going to be a really good time!! I'm jealous that I'm not going!!

Everyone is all a twitter about the carnival in honor of the Michael Corinthos Foundation!  Even the mobsters are coming out for such a good cause.  Jason asks Sam and Johnny asks Olivia to the carnival. Mobsters are just the sweetest guys?  Sam says yes. I am sure she has the perfect heels for the event. Olivia says she will be way to busy because she will be working as the organizer of the event. Olivia is a busy girl! How does she find the time in between keeping her son’s secret, running the hotel, being BFF’s to Carly and Jax, and most importantly and most time-consuming cooking Johnny spaghetti dinners after they bang?  Kristina confesses everything to Sonny about the accident.  Sonny totally let’s her off the hook and then pulls out a wad of cash and tells her to buy a pretty dress for the carnival.  Really?? Did he really just tell her to buy a pretty dress??    Holy love you, let’s forget about this, and I have to get back to being a really important mob boss. I’m just curious shouldn’t Kristina be grounded or something??  Spinelli asks Jason to be his best man.  You should just agree to wear the pink tie Jason; because I doubt the wedding is ever going to happen.  Andrea asks her lawyer hypothetically some questions about a murder/preparing a defense/what if there is a witness!  Hmmm Andrea!!  Could you possibly be talking about the fact that you murdered Brianna Hughes and Edward can place you at the crime scene? I was just wondering because it sounds kind of familiar. Nikolas is pretending he and Rebecca are back together and everything is normal.  If normal you mean giving Rebecca a dress, so she can dress and act like Emily. You are right totally normal!! Monica tells Edward she is heading out of town and is glad because whenever Port Charles has a big event, disaster always strikes. I said the same thing Monica!!! Edward you should rest up because you are about to be poisoned!!

Sam and Jason return to Port Charles with Michael and Kristina. Of course everything is super calm and nice at Carly’s house.  Michael is welcomed with open arms. I want to be more like Carly. She always protects her loved ones whether they are right or wrong. She doesn’t even skip a beat!  She just goes right into mother warrior mode. Whereas I blame my kids even when it is not their fault!!  I might just punish my kids now for running away to Mexico just in case they do it in the future!! Jason tells Sonny that he was left for dead by Jerry who shot him twice; and that Jerry told him that Claudia was innocent in Michael’s shooting.  Sonny thinks that Jerry would have no reason to lie at this point; but Jason is not convinced.  Um!!  No reason to lie Sonny?? That is all that Jerry does is lie.  There is no method to his madness. Speaking of liars! We were speaking about liars right?  Claudia is acting like she is looking forward to Kristina’s return and she agrees that the accident was just made a horrible mistake. Yeah right!! You better be careful Kristina, your super supportive step-momma is going to smother you in your sleep.  Now let’s talk about Andrea, the mayor’s wife!  She is always either at the police station or at the hospital. Doesn’t anyone find this peculiar??  Andrea bumps into Edward at the hospital and just in casual conversation he tells her that he saw her at the Metro Court the night of the Brianna Hughes murder. Sorry Edward you didn’t even realize it, but you just got on the people I need to poison list. Don’t worry you are not alone; you are right below Robin. Andrea proceeds to lift some type of medication off of a hospital cart. What luck!  There just so happens to be a medicine cart left unattended and you have people that you would like to poison!! Fantastic!!  What a great day!

Kristina admits to Sam and Jason that she was the one driving the night of Claudia’s accident not Alexis. Wow Kristina this is really shocking news! You see why you were busy keeping it a secret everyone figured it out; but thanks for telling us anyway!  Sonny tells Alexis that he wants Kristina to admit to the accident.  Sonny is concerned about Kristina’s mental health. That’s funny! I got an idea Sonny! How about you focus on your wife’s mental state?  While you and Alexis are busy trying to protect Kristina, your wife is vowing revenge against your daughter. Why don’t you make her get a job or something?  She has way to much time on her hands.  Michael wants to stay in Mexico. Right!! Who wouldn’t??  Sorry Michael! No more beach babes for you because Kristina needs you to come home with her so she can face the music.  Sonny wants Dominic to be Michael and Morgan’s guard. Alexis gives Kiefer permission to continue seeing Kristina when she gets home. Awesome Alexis!  I have a better idea. How about you dangle her in a tiger cage with a big old steak in her hand? It might be just as effective. Maybe now that you don’t have a J-O-B you can have more of a clue when it comes to your kids. Hopefully you won’t start blogging about television because it can be quite time consuming!!
