Happy November Sweeps!

            Everyone is Welcome!

*******************************************            

It has been one year since Julian blew up The Floating Rib.  Here's a recap of some of the things that happened last November. 

• Anna's twin, Alex, returned to Port Charles. Within a twenty-four to forty-eight hour period Alex managed to:

  
  1)  Get the jump on Anna and Valentin;
  2)  Give Peter permission to embrace his darker self;
  3)  Shoot Finn in the home he shared with Anna; and
  

  4)  Kidnap Maxie and take her to The Haunted Star.

  Anna finally found Alex and shot her. We saw Alex fall into the water and although her body was never recovered it was assumed she was dead.

• When Police Commissioner Jordan Ashford admitted to Portia that Cyrus had her under his control, the two ladies came up with a plan. Jordan faked a collapse and Portia fabricated her medical records making it look like Jordan needed to leave Port Charles to obtain medical treatment. In reality Jordan and Curtis went in search of something to bring Cyrus down.

• When Franco learned his tumor had returned he asked Jason to kill him if his behavior reverted back to the way it was the first time he had a tumor.

• Sasha continued a downward spiral as she became more dependent on drugs. Cyrus recognized her condition and since he didn't have the ability to attract an attractive lady he used cocaine to entice Sasha to his house. While there she OD'd and was rushed to the hospital by Brando who saved her life.

•  Jax tracked down Phyllis Caulfield, the nurse who had taken care of Nina when she was in a coma. She verified Nina gave birth to a baby girl.

• Michael and Willow learned that Chase and Sasha had lied to them about having an affair to get them together so they could ensure Nelle would not get custody of Wiley.

• To repay his debt to Cyrus, Julian was forced to set off a bomb at The Floating Rib to kill Jason. There were two fatalities and LuLu Spencer had a brain injury which resulted in her being in a comatose state.
  

Since the beginning of the October thread, there was movement in existing stories, some new developments, and a stalker was revealed.

• After being set up by his teen acquaintances Spencer finally confessed that he was Ava and Nikolas's stalker.

• Many of the Port Charles residents travelled to Greece. They had different reasons for going but none was for rest and relaxation. What a waste!
  

• Brook Lynn accused Austin of a HIPAA violation by getting him to talk to her about the possibility of Leo having Autism. Austin was suspended from seeing patients and could lose his license. All of this to keep him from getting ELQ shares.

• Sonny continued to keep a major secret from Carly and his family about his relationship with Nina during the nine months he was MIA.

• Michael tossed Quartermaine dollars to a District Attorney candidate in Philadelphia to get him to arrest Nina which he promptly did.

• Anna and Valentin returned to Port Charles after their Greece adventure debacle to capture Peter was unsuccessful. No surprise there.

Thank you to those who answered the October QOTM.

This month's question is a repeat, identical to the one posted in November 2019 and 2020.

November Question of the Month:

How do you read the GH thread - do you read most/every reply or do you read the last one or two posts before you write your comment?

My answer remains the same with an addendum:

I read every post but some get less attention than others. At times I can predict by seeing who the poster is and what the topic is what they are going to say because they have made their feelings very clear about certain characters and/or certain situations.

****************************************************

When reading last year's November thread I decided that what I had written last year expressed my feelings so well it could/should be used again. In the spirit of transparency I am going to post some of it with a few changes.

Since this is the month when we celebrate Thanksgiving, it's the appropriate time to acknowledge my appreciation to those who come here on a regular basis to read, to post, to spread a little joy and sunshine, to share information, to celebrate birthdays, to stir things up, to vent, and to ask/answer questions. I am thankful many of you recognize and seem to appreciate my efforts on the monthly thread.

I also want to remember two of our ladies, Preds and CLHS68, who though gone are not forgotten. I am thankful they were here and their words remain here. 🦋

****************************************************

It looks like once again the country is slowly moving in the right direction. At least this year we get to make some of our choices about what we do during the holidays. Whatever you do please do it with consideration and caution. Make decisions to keep yourself and those whom you love safe and healthy. Please and thank you. ♥️

GH Spoilers: The Race To Save Liesl Obrecht Is On

Diane Brounstein

GH spoilers for Monday reveal a shocking predicament, a rescue mission, an explosive confrontation, and so much more.

GH Spoilers Highlights

Liesl Obrecht awakens in a lab, shocked to be still alive though she’s not pleased when she realizes that she’s in the clutches of Peter August. Peter tells Obrecht his grand plans for his reunion with Maxie Jones. But Maxie hates him. Well, Peter lets Liesl know that’s where she comes into play, putting her on edge.

Meanwhile, Obrecht’s daughter is hot on her trail. Britt Westbourne and Jason Morgan arrive on Cassadine Island. Britt says they’re so close, they have to find her mother. They know Peter hates her and while it’s encouraging that he hasn’t killed her as of yet, they both know her time on this earth is limited without their help.

Checking In

Spoilers tease that Dante Falconeri and Sam McCall are surprised by Sonny Corinthos and Carly Corinthos’s actions. In fact, Dante has questions. So do we. Which actions? Does it have anything to do with Sonny telling Carly there’s a call he thinks she should know about — she’s the one who dealt with Cyrus Renaultwhile he was …away.

Spencer Cassadine has his own evil to confront — his father Nikolas Cassadine, as he asks if he arranged to murder his stepmother, Hayden Barnes. Listening in, Damian Spinelli notes Shawn Butler had success in sowing seeds of doubt in Spencer’s mind.

To Stop A Snitch

Brook Lynn realizes their baby plan is in jeopardy as she races to try to stop Gladys Corbin from blabbing all to Valentin Cassadine. Gladys enjoys toying with Valentin about how she knows stuff, causing him to ask Gladys if this knowledge she’s come into concerns him. Will BLQ get there in time?

Austin Gatlin-Holt, who has been trying to put the various player pieces together, asks Maxie what Gladys’s connection is to Valentin. We have a pretty good bet that Maxie is wondering about that very thing too, especially with the way Brook Lynn took off after hearing about shady Gladys and her latest antics.

Looking forward to some storylines progressing this month. What are the odds that the Sonny/Nina story will wrap up this month?  Despite everything else going on, I am most interested in finding out why Esme is really there.

Hmmm letting my mind wander...lab, explosive, rescue...another "boom boom", Jason saves Liesl/Britt and is Peter supposed to have perished?  LOL

This scenario has happened quite a few times on GH. I still find it interesting that 2 medical professionals thought that Peter was dead and hid the body, yet he seems to not have suffered any ill affects from his fall. I have always liked Liesl and Britt because they were written with quirky personalities. It is fun to see them semi sort of redeemed in a different way than Eva.

To answer the QOTM, I usually read all responses before responding but sometimes I am far behind so I read someone's post and want to reply before I forget and then I go back and read the rest of the comments. 

In response to this week's preview....Oh boy.  Maxie and Brooklyn hatch another scheme.  Can't wait.
