by Carol Banks Weber

  • Elizabeth remembers the night her boy’s (with Jason) life was cut way too short thanks to Luke. Monica makes sure she’s there for Elizabeth. It must be doubly hard with Jake’s father gone too.
  • A.J. takes the blow of Jake’s death hard.
  • A.J. is completely flummoxed by Elizabeth’s former pairing.
  • Dante tries to use Olivia’s psychic powers to summon up the coordinates of a missing Lulu.
  • Anna works closely with Dante to find Lulu. They come upon an oddball lead that could help.
  • A new detective joins the force and gets on the case to find Lulu (Rick Springfield’s real-life son, Liam Springthorpe).
  • Dante and Anna cannot believe it’s possible that this suspect could’ve done it.
  • Patrick takes the initiative by phoning a friend, Sabrina, for an important matter. But she doesn’t answer him back, which Elizabeth calls her on.
  • Sabrina undergoes a beauty makeover which may cause Patrick to rethink his single status.
  • Elizabeth is there to help nudge Patrick along to finding his happiness, without Robin.
  • Milo inquires as to Patrick’s interest in Sabrina, for selfish purposes. Milo would like to date the nurse.
  • Milo tells Patrick he’s interested in Sabrina, but if the brain surgeon wants her, that’s cool.
  • Patrick delves into what it is he feels for Sabrina, but then…
  • Patrick watches a DVD Robin left behind. It influences his next step.
  • Before Patrick can declare himself to Sabrina, his presumed-dead wife Robin may very well take him by surprise by showing up in the flesh.
  • Patrick’s dad, Noah, reappears just in time to be the big act for the upcoming Nurses’ Ball.
  • A shot rings out. Someone falls like a cheap suit. Shawn?
  • Alexis nurses Shawn back to better health at her lake house.
  • Dante and Anna chase down this shooter.
  • Dante catches the shooter in short order.
  • Tracy takes it upon herself to appoint a new cook for the kitchen staff, which stuns the rest of the Qs.

  • Carly unveils the Metro Court renovation, which has Lucy cooing.
  • Maxie says out loud that Spinelli is the true baby’s father, but she’s deep in a dream. Spinelli happens by at the tail-end of this dream.
  • A.J. puts Spinelli on a certain task more up the P.I.’s alley: hunt down Lauren Franco.
  • A lot of fan favorites return in preparation for the April 5-9th Nurses’ Ball, including Jax, Brenda, Bobbie, Nikolas, and more.
  • Carly welcomes her ex-husband Jax back, possibly rekindling something. The same thing goes for Sonny with Brenda.
  • Sonny and Carly react to news that comes as a big surprise.
  • Scotty yells at Bobbie for ever bringing Luke Spencer to town back in the ‘80s.
  • Scotty seethes with petty (but warranted) jealousy at Laura hanging on every word from her hero Luke, like nothing’s changed.
  • Laura rips into Luke in fear and anger.
  • It just may turn out that Laura’s the target (for payback), with Lulu as the collateral damage/bait.
  • Refusing to endure more abuse, Rafe bolts from the CPS-assigned group home for wayward children.
  • The April Nurses’ Ball also completes the GH 50th anniversary celebration on-screen. There will be stars from GH’s past, as well as red carpet moments.
