Date: 04 May 1998 15:40:40 -0700 ... just in time to start falling behind again, I'm sure. Anyway... *** re: Robin Once again the question "what the hell has Bob Guza done with the REAL Robin Scorpio???" is pounding through my head. I am disliking this version more and more each day. Last summer we got, as Julie has said repeatedly, the most over-due line in the history of GH: "I'm too damn little to be anybody's patron saint!" And now she's continually acting like that's EXACTLY how she wants to be treated. And as if watching Robin justify letting Tony off the hook wasn't revolting enough, we had to watch Felicia do it, too. I can't stand Felicia when she's NOT being annoying (as if there were any such time), but that was heavy-duty fast-forward material. *** re: Luke, Lucky & Helena I know I'm in the radical minority because I absolutely adore Lucky and I think that Luke has about 90% of what Lucky's dishing out coming to him, but I was still delighted to see Lucky let his old man come to his rescue. That was seriously cool. If there is one thing I HATE it's when an outsider on the attack is allowed to see a division in the ranks (Lucy used to let Damian see a lot of those between her and Kevin and it made me absolutely nuts), and I loved that Lucky just went with his father, letting Helena think it was a set-up from the beginning, and then walked away from Luke privately, once they left the yacht. *** re: Lizzie & Lucky Mr. Murty as the rapist. Cheap. Tacky. Tasteless. Disappointing. Unimaginative. Unnecessary. Anti-climactic. *** re: Jason & Brenda on the crashing plane Woo hoo! FINALLY Jason let Brenda have it for comparing S&B to J&R!!! She's been asking for that for SO long. I particularly loved that Jason went WAY back in history clear to when Brenda wore the wire on Sonny to hammer her for the fact that she was a two-faced child who lied to Sonny and then had the nerve to get upset when Sonny lied to her. And, of course, my stupid observations: they needed to do something about Vanessa's hair when the plane started going down. The camera angle they used made it look like they were dropping really drastically (which basic aviation physics would make unlikely, anyway), and yet Vanessa's straight, loose hair was not draping the way that it would if gravity was actually working. Maybe soaps fall into a gravity-free zone, like schools and drugs. *** re: Carly I think what I find most enjoyable and entertaining about Carly as a character is that one minute I can be totally touched by a scene she has with someone (Bobbie, Ned). She can be endearing, and I can be sympathetic to her side (when she shot a smirking Tony), and then in another scene I can be cheering when someone let's her have it (Justus: "Tony Jones used to be an honest man, too. And then he met you." Woo hoo!). *** re: Alexis Well, all I can say about that one is: ABOUT TIME!! Yay! Man, Luke hit the nail on the head when he said that Helena had sliced the fight out of her. And the look on Alexis' face when she asked Luke to h*lp her kill Helena was FABULOUS. And the scenes earlier in the week -- when she broke down after Tony's hearing in the bathroom, when she told Ned the truth, when she went to the penthouse to offer her h*lp in Carly's defense, when she went to the ELQ board meeting, all of it -- were all marvelous. Of course. But NOTHING can compare to her getting her fire back. *** re: Robin and Nikolas I was actually fairly neutral on them until last week, but I'm developing a strong distaste for this pairing. The Sanctimonious and the Pretentious. I don't know, maybe they'll grow on me down the line a bit. *** re: Stefan and Katherine marriage proposal Yuck. *** I think that's about it... at least all I can think of at the moment, anyway. Taiyin JUSTUS: "So, how was your first day?" CARLY: "Great. I had breakfast with the Queen of Sweden, I had lunch with Napolean and I played checkers with a guy who swore he was from the ninth dimension." - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Danielle Graham Subject: GH/PC: Brenda & Jason Date: 07 May 1998 11:48:41 -0400 ok, I never ever thought I'd even think this one, but does anyone else like Brenda & Jason together?

Frank could have done it and then get off in court because of the drug that Devlin illegally used on him, if they can prove that it made him unstable (which, at this point, shouldn't be too hard). But, I think that it'll probably be Lark because the actress is not on contract, and they could get rid of her without disturbing the canvass too badly. Besides, with her history it would make sense. >Matt and Ellen together, I >don't think so. She is acting like a teenager in love for the first time. >Hope she goes to Calif. and stays forever. Ah!

June makes it about a year since she arrived. Sarah will probably decide that she wants to go home to Bolder and Lizzie will decide that she wants to stay in Port Charles.

Saker" Subject: GH/PC: Fanfic suggestion Date: 13 May 1998 11:27:59 -0400 i just visited pc online (www.port-charles.com/gh), and on the fan fiction board (click on "message boards" and then click on "fan fiction") there's a post by "miss anna" called something like "S&B writers--ollie ollie oxen free." in it, she suggests (what i strongly feel to be true) that any lingering s&b fans are going to be VASTLY disappointed by whatever guza has up his sleeve for the coming weeks, so she's issued a challenge: write the next scene to occur between sonny and brenda. she gave a couple of ground rules, which to the best of my memory go something like this: 1) they don't get back together (or they do) 2) they meet by accident (or on purpose) 3) brenda's with jax these days (although not necessarily forever) 4) sonny departs to parts unknown when it's over in my view, #4 is obviously the most important. anyway, she posted her version as a reply to that post, and it was just BEAUTIFUL! so...i wanted to suggest you all go read it! and, i wanted to see if we had any takers to write their own version? i was going to, but then i think i was ruined by reading "miss anna"'s version, because i think, given the constraints of the past storyline, it may be the best we could hope for. anybody care to prove me wrong? :) julie - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Cagey Subject: GH/PC: ADMIN please read Date: 13 May 1998 13:28:20 -0700 (PDT) Bandwidth is a *bad* thing.

I'll skip over the bad stuff, and go directly to the pertinant stuff, though: As of today, I no longer have email during the day at work. I quit my job a few weeks ago, and tomorrow is my last day. That meant that this week I've been cleaning my stuff and and getting ready to go. So yesterday I had to delete by email program off my computer at work. I begin a new job on Monday, and I don't think I'll have email there (which, for job performance reasons, is probably a Good Thing). So I get to be like most of the rest of the world who has to work during the day, and restict the playing to the evenings. Bah. "No work AND pay!" "No work AND pay!" "No work AND pay!"

Jason & Brenda & the wilderness: Well, my sister was getting annoyed with me because I wouldn't shut up and stop saying that Jason wasted a PERFECTLY good opportunity to get rid of her once and for all and bury the body where no one would ever find her. But, that aside, I did really like the bonding moments between the two of them. And mostly I like that, even though they got to the point of not hating each other anymore, they still don't like or trust each other. I was also ESPECIALLY glad to hear Brenda admit that she and Sonny were doomed because of his lies and her wearing the wire. Truer words were never spoken. Jason & the Quartermaines: I was rather partial to the way he kicked through the door. :-) Robin & Jason: FINALLY. And I don't just mean them sleeping together (though, that too). Guza FINALLY backed off, and Robin FINALLY stopped sounding like a sanctimonious little brat. Luke & Alexis: Woo hoo!! I love this. I love them. They are so incredible together. The only thing cooler than the two of them, was the two of them with Helena and Bobbie thrown into the mix, too. Bobbie clobbering Helena was CLASSIC. My only nagging concern, and it's in no way anything more than mere speculation on my part, is that in conjunction with the whole General Homicide thing (along with Luke and Alexis' plans to kill her), GH might actually get rid of her. I sure as hell hope not. Jax & Brenda: Well, even though I seriously dislike both characters on their own, I'm actually not minding them together nearly as much, anymore. Mostly with the comedy, though. I liked their bet and people watching on the train. That was actually pretty cute. Stefan & Katherine: Painful. Fast-forward. I'll be so glad when Laura walks in the door and sends that storyline spinning in an even remotely enjoyable direction. Lucky & Lizzie: I loved Lizzie's conversation with Bobbie. And I loved the fact that she and Lucky discussed Laura. That was such a great conversation. And I really like the way they are setting it up so that Lizzie feels connected to Laura on one level, and yet totally horrified and mystified by her on another. That is very cool storytelling. Her torching dinner was cute, too. Ned: Ned and Alexis. Ned and Carly. Ned was just cool the past couple of weeks. Though, you know, for someone who has found himself the victim of blackmail as often as he has (and with leverage far less persuasive than imminent death), you'd think Ned would have just a TAD bit of sympathy for Alexis' situation. But him going to her to ask her to h*lp Carly, because his fears for Michael growing up in the house were the same as Lois' for Brook, was very cool. And I think that needs to be tapped into more often to h*lp keep the distinction clear as to why Ned is breaking rank on this issue. Justus & Taggart: Dara who? Man, those two by themselves crack me up. That meeting at Luke's, when Dara was sitting with Jerry, had me ROTF!!! Hysterical. Although I am glad they didn't cop out and have Justus back down on his charges against Taggart. Mac & Felicia: I don't know what I think of those two yet. I don't like Felicia at all, but I think that's mostly because KW annoys me. But at times I like them together, but I think most of the time they leave me with the most overwhelming sense of "been there, done that" and it's just too redundant to watch. Maybe it's just because I think Felicia is a monumental hypocrite who lets a totally unremorseful Tony off the hook after she spent MONTHS trying crucify a HIGHLY remorseful Kevin. Maybe it's just my allergy to blonds. I think that's about all I can think of at the moment. But that's probably just because my brain is still fried from seeing Sonny. And that grin. With a beard.

Actually, for once that one didn't bother me (probably because I was more annoyed at her for CONINTUING to defend Tony when he hasn't shown the SLIGHTEST bit of remourse for what he's done, and CONTINUES to justify it). I think it's mostly because Robin was the one person who NEVER doubted Sonny's reasons for leaving, and because she didn't give him too hard a time for what he did. I am glad, though, that she brought up the one thing that I went ballistic about back in September when he left: that maybe he did do the right thing in leaving, but that whether it was right or wrong was not the point because by not giving BRENDA the choice, the validity of his actions was moot -- he was just wrong to make that decision for her. Plus, I just think that she was worried about the possibility of Sonny trying to get back into Brenda's life after everything that's happened. And, honestly, I think someone needed to say that to him -- just to be sure.

What was this in reference to?? I don't remember this at >all!!!!!! Help?!?!?!! That was in reference to some off-camera, long-established Jones boys history. The story goes along the lines of this: when Frisco was a teenager his father, with whom he did not get along at ALL, shipped him off to boarding school three states away, while he left Tony, his prefered child, at home. I don't remember exactly what happened to their dad off hand, but when their mother was dying, Tony was screwing around with the nurse. Frisco, who was EXTREMELY close to their mother, crossed three states, by himself at the age of 14 (or something like that ), just to say good-bye to his mother. That whole situation was a major bone of contention between the Jones boys for many years. All of that happened long before either of them was on the show, but it's been established over and over and over again. And that was why I was so happy to see it referenced. And I was PARTICULARLY happy to see the spin that Bobbie put on it -- the corralation between Tony's disappointment in himself, and his need to mess around before snapping back into his "perfect life" mode was borderline brilliant. And it opens up TONS of potential. Fabulous.

Yesterday was the first time Robin hasn't bugged me in a LONG time. And, though I disagree with her defence of Tony, at least she's consistent. I thought her interacaction with Sonny was very nicely handled, and I agree with Taiyin that bringing up Brenda's lack of choice was dead-on. I think this is the first time that Guza has written Robin with even a smidgen of accuracy, and I hope it continues-- I think she's being horribly cheated/mangled by the current regime, and it makes me VERY angry. I've watched KMcC since she was a little girl; she was the first child actor on soaps that didn't make my teeth itch. She's a good actress, she has an unmatched character in terms of connections and history, and I hate to see that so wasted. In fact, the main reason I haven't been watching GH lately is because when I watch, I get angry over how Robin is written. Well, that and Kat and Stefan make me sick. But that's another tangent...

When Brenda was marrying Jax for the first time she had no idea that Sonny's wife was getting blown to smithereens. Now Brenda is getting engaged to Jax, and again half way across the world she has no idea that Sonny's life is changing yet again. There is one thing about Sonny's return that I just don't like. For the most part it has been ok, but I didn't like the way he reacted to the news about Brenda. I don't know what it was, but it just didn't feel right to me. Then again I may just be sleep deprived and imagining things.

Then again I may just be sleep deprived and imagining things. Well, Sonny's reaction was very contained, but that is just very Sonny. He always (well, at least almost always) plays things like that really close to the vest. And, honestly, I think intellectually he really WANTS to be happy for her, because she is happy. I think it's a bit much to ask ANYONE, though, to be totally happy when the person you love is happily in love with someone else. Anyone who says that's possible has obviously never been in that situation, IMO. You can WANT to be happy for them, but it hurts like hell to know that they are perfectly happy without you. My sister got on a Stone/Robin kick this week, so I was up until ALL hours last night watching a bunch of those old eps. It's annoying to watch it with her because she and I like different things. She wanted to watch Stone and Robin, and I was more interested in the people around them. Plus, she had the NERVE to fast-forward through Kevin and Lucy. Had to set her straight about THAT one. No wonder we have two remote controls. ;-) Anyway, while we were watching it, I was thinking about Sonny's reaction to Robin's news about Brenda this week. When I watched it I really WAS disappointed that we didn't get to see more of an emotional reaction -- after all, this is supposed to be a more relaxed, laid back version of Sonny. But while I was watching the very, very end of the storyline, and as Stone was dying, Sonny was SO walled up. And he was so contained and it reminded me of (a.) what I love most about both Sonny, as a character, and Maurice, as an actor, and (b.) that this Sonny is different in some obvious ways (jeans and a t-shirt!!! Did anyone EVER think we'd see Sonny like that???), but that his habit of masking his emotions is more than a habit -- that is just who he is. So, even though I originally agreed that, yes, there was something disappointing and off-balancing about Sonny's reaciton to Robin's news, and that it didn't seem quite right that this 'new' Sonny who wears jeans and has a goatee would be so buttoned up still, I think it was mostly because it's been too long since we've seen his (well-written) true nature, so I forgot how closed off he really is most of the time.

Now, I don't want to be crude or anything, but I understood from the GH anniversary special that she had a mastectomy? It just didn't look like it from that dress she was wearing today-- did I get the wrong impression? I wasn't watching GH at that time-- Now for some comments-- whomever said Jason was looking pretty good (sorry I can't remember who), I second that emotion!! I especially loved the napkin in the shirt when he was eating lunch/dinner w/ Sonny and Robin--and as for Sonny- I forgot how much he added to the show- I love the relationship between he and Jason-- they have such great chemistry together. And Sonny comes back from who knows where and proceeds to make lunch- too cool! Christophori's Dream-- (the Kat and Bat music) I am getting sick of it-- can we please have something else??? Lucky and Liz-- what I like about them is that I am enough of an adult to see where Audrey would be upset, but enough a kid to see how much Liz needed him there and see their side of things-- I like that I don't feel one or the other is completely correct--and they are just too cute, especially today-- it really makes me miss my guy friends from high school-- when we thought we could be that way forever. I really like them a lot. Venus-- she practically jumps off the screen she has so much presence-- why oh why doens't she have anything to do??? Also, I love the scenes with Michael and Carly and Jason, like the one last Friday/Monday, when he makes those gurgly/almost talking noises-- Jason/Steve and Carly/Sarah both looked over and smiled-- I don't know why, but those moments always make me smile.

Date: 21 May 1998 22:51:14 -0700 (PDT) Hi all... I wrote a note to one of the listowners the other day to ask the proper way to introduce this information but I never heard back and now they're gone for a few days so I'm gonna wing it. :) I really hope I don't break any rules and that is certainly NOT my intention, but sitting on this is making me crazy!!! :) Below will be some summer preview info as listed in Soap Opera Digest -- if you don't want to know what's going to happen, you REALLY don't want to read this!! For the rest of you, meet ya below the spoiler space... S P O I L E R S P A C E S P O I L E R S P A C E Okay! Here's the scoop: Guza on GH: ~~Luke/Laura/Stefan/Katherine:~~ (leaving out what's already happened...) "Ultimately, Laura's return for the masked ball leads to a climactic confrontation that directly results in a tragedy. Her return is going to test her strength and the strength of her love for Luke in ways that they have never been tested. And what happens in the unraveling of the events at Wyndemere is that secrets start coming out. Luke and Laura realize how much they've kept from one another and there are repercussions for Lucky *and* Nikolas." ~~Jax/Brenda/Sonny/Jerry:~~ (Leaving out the basics that we already know or assume) "Two more things we're going to play with Brenda & Jax through the summer are: 1)We're going to find out that Jerry is the weak link that could bring down the Jacks fortune. The stuff that Jerry is doing right now is going to blow up big time. And 2)Someone from Brenda's past is rumoured to be returning and if this person does, it's going to turn Brenda's whole world upside down." (BTW, I don't think this means Sonny, but I'm not sure who it does mean!!!) ~~Nurse's Ball:~~ "We're going to arc a story over both GH & PC. Alan's pill use, which has accelerated, will rachet up again during one of the numbers, and there will be a connection to the serial killing hospital murders that have been happening on PC." (HUH??????!!!!!) Lynn Marie Latham on PC: ~~General Homicide:~~ "The murderer is absolutely one of the characters on the show. We won't have some surprise character coming in to take the rap; I hate when shows do that. Also, I have no intention whatsoever of bringing Ryan back from the dead. That doesn't mean that somewhere down the road, someone else won't do it. But Ryan is not the killer." (WOW!! Blows my Allison Skylar theory all to heck, though, don't it??? LOL!!) ~~Ellen/Matt:~~ (Leaving out what has already happened) "But Ellen returns because her mother has a second heart attack. Ellen moves in with Alice to take care of her, and in effect becomes Karen's landlord because Karen rents from Alice." ~~Kevin/Lucy/Victor:~~ "I really enjoy Victor's addition to the Collins/Coe household. It can be very difficult to have a parent come live with you. Through Victor, Kevin will explore his past and understand what really happened to him when he was a child because he doesn't remember a lot of it. It's also interesting to see Lucy cope with Victor and see Victor try to ingratiate himself." That's the best of it....there's more in the magazine but these are the ones that jumped at me....especially the Nurse's Ball and General Homicide!! Yowza!!

S P O I L E R S P A C E H E R E So, in the latest Soap Opera Digest there is this bizarre comment from Guza, "Katherine is dead, but all that's happening is the character is dying," hints Guza ominously. "That does not mean anything more than the character is dying." I'm sorry, I've always assumed I had a pretty good grasp of the English language but not when Guza talks!!! What the %!#@#%!#$# does that mean??? On NW Afternoon, someone speculated that Helena had given Kat whatever Stefan had doped up Laura's mom with all those years and that eventually she'd be back...but that doesn't track with this bizarre statement from Guza. Dunno....vedy, vedy confusing!!! :) As for Brenda/Sonny/Jax, I was impressed with the Sonny and Brenda scene, and I was most pleased with two things - for once, Jax didn't go running after Brenda when he figured out where she was, and two, Brenda told him the truth. What a refreshing change! Almost like grown-ups! LOL!!! Also, Sonny telling Jason what had happened was very poignant. I agree with Julie on suspending disbelief - not only would Renaldo NEVER have let her in, but come on, if you were in hiding, would you answer the cotton-pickin' phone?!?!?!?!

I look at it from maybe a different point of view-- I sorta lived the Swiss Cheese version of S&B- full of holes from sporadic viewing. I was really sad when Lily died, for example. And boy that did NOT go over well with most people I knew watching it at that time. But these scenes today were exceptionally well done and I was very emotionally involved, which is a huge credit to the actors, as I was *not* entirely involved as the story was originally unfolding. Of course, Maurice Bernard has me transfixed simply by being on the screen, so I am willing to concede that may have something to do with it. :) I really thought these scenes were beautifully done though. I also give big kudos to Tyler Christopher for doing a crying scene which was, IMHO, believable and not at all snarky or sappy or painful to watch. I loved the understatement of it. The whole dichotomy of today's show was especially evident in that scene, where Nik is crying on his uncle's shoulder while Alexis looks on in horror as she realizes just what she has helped do. As well, the contrast between S&B vs. S&J was clearly evident (although I am not a Jax fan, there I've said it!, I liked the honesty as well between the characters). Stefan's living statue routine gets to me a little, and I felt that again today. But Jason being supportive, gotta love that, and the joking between he and Robin of the Glass Slipper was especially cute. Everything in this ep seemed in direct opposition to something else and I liked that. Except for the whole Alan thing-- they may as well have not existed today in this world for all I cared.

Date: 28 May 1998 13:16:46 -0400 okay, you guys better sit down for this one, because i for one can't believe i'm going to say this, but...i was WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!! i'm sorry, mr. guza, for doubting you, and for getting you confused with your completely incompetent predecessors. i was blinded by the travesty they created, and had NO faith in your ability to right past wrongs...and i was wrong. i finally got to watch tuesday's ep last night, with the sonny/brenda scene--and, even though i anticipated hating it LOOOOONG before i watched it, and had my teeth clenched against the inevitable as the episode started...guza came through! it was amazing! specifically..= =2E brenda. thank god--where has that girl been hiding for the past = three or four years?!? she did it. she said what needed to be said, she did what needed to be done, and she stood her ground while doing it. i was SHOCKED. in fact (and i REALLY can't believe i'm saying THIS) i think vanessa marcil did a better job than maurice in those scenes. she made it abundantly clear that doing the wrong thing is ALWAYS wrong, even if it's done for the right reasons, and she told sonny WHY. she told him that the ends don't justify the means when it comes to hurting someone you love. and yet, she also acknowledged that despite sonny's boneheaded departure, she could never hate him. (i WAS a little disappointed that she didn't go as far as he eventually did, in admitting she'd always love him, but i'll take what i can get at this point). and, even more miraculous, when he kissed her, SHE was the one who pulled away. BEAUTIFUL. sonny--his EYES. he didn't say much, and what he did say was a bit too glib most of the time, for my taste, but his eyes said it all. h= e really HEARD brenda, and understood what she was saying. for the first time, he really understood what he did to her when he left, which was something he desperately needed to see. and even better, he was ASHAMED by what he did...as he should be. i wish he = could have opened up a bit more with brenda, as he eventually did with jason, but again...i'll take what i can get. also, i was happy he finally told brenda the truth--even if it still wasn't the WHOLE truth (In my opinion, he should have told her about the guy who was = threatening her, in addition to sharing the dream). but it was a = long-overdue explanation, and i'm glad he gave it. now, not to say that some things didn't piss me off. for example, = brenda making a beeline for jax. i would have been happier if that part had been saved for the next episode. but i understand that it's the exact same thing that happened when jax and brenda broke up the last time and brenda ran straight for sonny--of course, i thought it was cruel (to the viewers) then, too, but... also, i thought they were a little more dismissive of the s&b relationshi= p than i would have liked. all the talk about how young brenda was (while true) and how sometimes you don't want what makes you happy, but what brings you the highest highs and the lowest lows (while also true) seemed to me to have the effect of slightly invalidatin= g s&b's relationship...but at the same time i'm not furious about that, = because overall i think they tried to do justice to it. when sonny was saying good-bye, and that he hoped she'd have all the things he wanted to give her, love, and a life without fear, and she said she had them but was still crying at the same time--that made me = feel a little better about it all...that they were at least acknowledging= the loss they were both experiencing. all in all, i was VERY impressed. given the constraints guza had to work with (being unable to undo = the past, and not having them end up together) i think he did the best he could in doing justice to s&b, and giving them the closure they SOOOO didn't get last time around. and while i'm still annoyed by the concept of bringing sonny back solely to facilitate the j&b relationship.....i didn't hate it. and considering how SURE i was that i would, that's high praise indeed! :) all that, and he killed kat, too? can we nominate guza for sainthood? := ) julie - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Rebecca Subject: GH/PC: Lucky/Liz-Where were they?

Dahling, please qualify statements like that. Of course, I do agree with everything you've said. For the first time since before Brenda wore the wire back in 1995 I was actually impressed with her. That shocked the hell out of me. I didn't like the fact that in several small ways they continually DID dismiss so much of S&B's relationship. I still can't stand Jax, but I did actually feel really sorry for him as soon as he realized that Brenda was visiting Sonny. Over all, I was impressed with the way it was handled. I especially like the fact that they addressed the fact that no matter how much they loved each other, neither one of them ever managed to get the trust and honesty bit and THAT was what did them in. But they could acknowledge the fact that they still did love each other. Having love without trust is one thing. Having a successful relationship without it is something else. >all that, and he killed kat, too? can we nominate guza for sainthood? :) Now THAT ONE gets a RESOUNDING "Amen!!" from me. Although, I must say, this "Saint Kathrine" crap is REALLY pissing me off! Katherine Bell is the one who stole money from an AIDS benefit for no other reason than to thumb her nose at Lucy. She was an amoral snot. And somehow her involvement with Mac is supposed to absolve her of all the heinous things she did before that? I don't THINK so. I've never seen the citizens of Port Charles have such short and convenient memories before.

Mikkos and Helena were Stavros and Stefan's parents. Luke killed both Mikkos and Stavros and that's why both Helena and Stefan hate him.
