This week on Common Hospital, the reality about Charlotte the teenage stalking psychopath lastly got here out, and Ned additionally received his reminiscence again. But it surely additionally seems that Valentine and Anna, together with Spencer and Trina, might be over. And with Tracy headed to Amsterdam, is the present lastly going to deal with Bobbie’s dying?
Valentin’s Imperfect Angel
Because the week unfolded, and Anna blamed herself for Charlotte’s taking pictures, it lastly grew to become obvious to Dante that Charlotte was the one concentrating on Anna all alongside. Valentin and Nina have accomplished Charlotte no favors in defending her, and it was good to see Valentin shift from apparently blaming Anna to realizing this was his fault for not telling Anna the reality sooner. That Charlotte may so simply look her father within the face and lie was fairly scary, and he or she’s undoubtedly a Helena within the making.
Though Dante advised Anna his idea about Charlotte, she was satisfied a former WSB agent was utilizing Charlotte to get to her. Valentin was lastly pressured to inform Anna the reality. Finola Hughes and James Patrick Stuart’s scenes collectively have been superb, and you could possibly really feel Anna’s anger in the direction of Valentin for placing her within the place he did. Even when their characters are indignant with each other, the actors’ chemistry collectively comes by means of. That’s why it was heartbreaking to see that is possible the top of Vanna, or the largest hurdle of their relationship to date that received’t be simple to beat. Valentin utterly deserved the slap Anna delivered to him, however on the identical time, I felt empathy for him when he realized he had misplaced Anna, and that Charlotte was so badly broken she thinks Anna tried to kill her on objective. With Nina’s world about to implode quickly sufficient, and Charlotte being thrilled to see Nina together with her father, how lengthy earlier than the kid begins pushing them again collectively?

Regardless of the stellar appearing, this storyline hasn’t labored for me since we discovered it was Charlotte concentrating on Anna, as I’ve been saying in my previous columns, as a result of Charlotte had appeared to be supportive of Anna and her father even after she got here again from boarding college. Now they wish to retcon historical past and make it in order that Victor planted doubts in her head about Anna whereas she was in boarding college. There’s one factor that ought to come out of this story although and that’s Lulu waking up, as a result of clearly, her daughter wants a mom proper now.
Has Tracy’s Exit Begun the Dying of Bobbie Storyline?
I used to be truly sorry to see Tracy exit, however we all know it received’t be for lengthy. Certain she’s been the worst grandmother on the earth to Brook Lynn, however she’s a personality who’s enjoyable to hate. Plus, she at all times has the snarkiest traces, and Jane Elliot is so good at delivering them. Nonetheless given Tracy’s going to hitch Bobbie in Amsterdam in checking out Luke’s remaining affairs, it seems the present may use this to lastly handle Jacklyn Zeman’s dying, and that additionally of Bobbie Spencer’s. I can’t see Tracy not returning for that storyline. It’s a narrative that’s lengthy overdue, and it must be addressed.

The Finish of “Eddie”
With pushing from Lois, “Eddie” took a dive into the water close to the boathouse to try to discover his siren, who as everyone knows, was Olivia all alongside. Olivia dove in to save lots of “Eddie” when he received himself tangled in some seaweed, after which identical to that, Ned was again. Hallelujah, as this storyline went on far longer than it wanted to. However hey, it introduced Lois again, so at the very least we received that out of it. I used to be not watching Common Hospital when Rena Sofer was first on, so Lois is new to me, and he or she’s shortly turning into a favourite of mine. I like her and Tracy buying and selling insults each time they see each other.
In Friday’s present, Ned advised Olivia that whereas he remembered every thing, some issues have been a little bit fuzzy. May a kind of issues be he is aware of the reality about Nina? Frankly, I loved every week with little to no Nina, Carly and Michael drama. Nonetheless in some unspecified time in the future, he’s going to recollect, and he’s going to show Nina… who will then expose Michael blackmailing her.

Don’t Do it, Spencer!
The Spencer, Trina and Esme storyline has turn into tedious and irritating. It’s good that Esme is opening up that she has emotions for Spencer, which explains she needs to maneuver out, however she in all probability must be trustworthy with him and inform him that’s why she has to go. The one a part of this storyline I’ve loved is the friendship that’s developed between Esme and Laura. Apart from that, we’re caught watching a once-fan-favorite couple falling to items as Spencer’s obsession over being a dad to Ace is driving Trina away. He was a whole jerk to Trina on Friday’s episode, warning her to not make him select between her and Ace. Good for Trina for standing up for herself and strolling out on Spencer. I can’t perceive why the writers appear intent on destroying this well-liked couple, however I for one am now not transport them. It appears clear the place that is going, Spencer goes to make use of the faux proof Victor left him in opposition to Esme to carry onto Ace. They should convey Nikolas again to place an finish to this story, and Spencer appearing as if he’s Ace’s father.

Last Ideas
The photoshoot with Sasha and Salvadore was fairly excessive and foolish, and what’s with the unique animals on the present? First a llama, now an alpaca? It was a cute little factor although, and Sasha and Cody have been cute posing with it. Maxie may clearly see Cody was smitten with Sasha.
So Stella met a person in London named George who proposed to her. I suppose we will anticipate George to point out up in Port Charles quickly, as a result of why else drop that tidbit of data?
I used to be glad to see the present addressed my ideas from final week, that Tracy made positive Brook Lynn couldn’t simply signal Deception again over to Lucy, Maxie and Sasha. Additionally, I’m comfortable Lois goes to stay round a little bit longer to assist Brook Lynn work out what to do about Deception.
With Ava lastly realizing Austin has been mendacity to her about Nikolas, Cyrus and who is aware of what else, issues ought to get very fascinating. Will Ava retaliate? Will Austin be truthful together with her for as soon as? Do they stand an opportunity at being a pair? As a result of it looks like this week was all about breaking apart {couples} or on this case, a possible one.
It was good of Drew to lastly keep in mind he has a child and went to see Scout. She ought to have been his first precedence.
Lastly, I beloved Alexis’ opinion of Blaze to Kristina. “She likes you. She such as you likes you…” As a result of all of us noticed this coming a mile away, nevertheless it seems Kristina has blinders on. Additionally, thank the celebs Kristina and Molly are now not preventing over the surrogacy. Plus, the newest actress to play Molly is a very good match for the half.
That’s all I’ve received this week. As at all times, these are solely my ideas. Drop yours within the feedback beneath!
