Just tolerating the situation

I for one want to be one of the first people to say, I liked today's show. It put all those stupid Brenda kissing Jason photo to rest and just showed us how strong Jason and Sam's relationship is.  I think the "other fan-base" has been sniffing the same glue Spinelli has been sniffing because there was no huge jealousy on Sam's part nor did Jason seemed at all thrilled about his current mission. This once, again just agrees with my earlier posts that those spoilers and rumors out there are just mean spirited and negative just to get a reaction out of  fans.  We true fans know it will take more then Brenda Barrett's whining and drama to ever breakup our couple. 

Spinelli clearly is one of the few infatuated with Brenda enough to not only be a less then true friend to Sam but Jason too.  Jason would CLEARLY not appreciate Spinelli fantasizing and romanticizing his current situation.    I for one loved Sam's reaction to the photo.  She saw right through it and saw the love of her life being paraded to some event he was not happy to be at.  Honestly that photo speaks volumes, it shows Jason pissed off and unhappy wearing a tux and hating every minute of it.  Sam saw that right away and felt sorry for her dear love and wished he'd be home sooner rather then later.  Carly busting in and announcing she wondered what self-made drama Brenda has got herself into this time, I wanted to laugh.  Carly is the queen of self-made drama, historically speaking, and lets face it she holds that title out-right. It must be hard for Carly to share that throne.   We all know what Sam was thinking but Sam has decided to play nice with Carly so she didn't say it.  Asking Carly to use her imaginations when it comes to Brenda is a rather lethal and comical suggestion all together.  I am sure Carly's imagination would run wild if it was given the chance with troubles Brenda has gotten herself into. But I do love Carly's honestly about Brenda to try to level-set Spinelli and his dilusions. 

Murphy and Jason's scenes today were rather comical.  Oh poor, sweet, misinformed and misled Murphy clearly Brenda has pulled to wool over your eyes enough to think Brenda is worth fighting for. When Jason was questioned about if he would care if Brenda died it was amusing to read his reaction on his face even if he didn't verbalize it.  You can tell his first thought was, 'thank God, less drama now for me to deal with' if she were to die.    Funny how Suzanne worries about leaving Jason and Murphy in the same room together.  "I play an assassin in movies, I am not one in real life."  Oh naive Murphy, how you didn't realize you are in the room with a real assassin that, thank goodness, has a heart of gold and is trying to help the situation.   I loved when Jason informed Murphy that he and Brenda don't tell each other much.  It was clear Jason was thinking the less he knows about Brenda's life, and vise versa, the better. He just wants to get her latest drama solves so he can go home to his true love, SAM.  I can't wait to see the conclusion of these scenes tomorrow to see Jason tell Murphy he is not that guy and it wouldn't hurt if he threw in a comment like "I have the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with back home. I don't want Brenda".  That would be beautiful .

Oh but I think my favorite scenes today by far where those shared between Jax and Sam.  Some don't realize the history those two have especially on the Brenda topic.  Jax brought Sam to Port Charles and his first reasons for wanting to be with Sam was because she looked like Brenda and distracted him from his broken heart.  I loved Sam's line, "Brenda's really not a topic of conversation I want to discuss with you." So true even though these two have resolved the past and evolved in to somewhat civil friends, Sam is probably one of the last people on earth that wants to sit in Jax's office and discuss the very reason they got together in the first place.  I thought it was sweet and thoughtful how Sam thought of Carly (when so often no one ever thinks about Sam or her feelings in these situations) when she was talking to Jax about Brenda.  Carly does have a right to know about their conversation if Jax is really being as honest and invested as he says he is about their future.  They need to put all their cards on the table, including the Brenda card.  Sam acted as a true friend would act today in regards to Carly to Jax.  Too bad Carly won't see it that way but maybe she will...but probably not.  This is Carly we are talking about here.   I didn't particularly care for Jax's phrasing of his line "You seem fairly calm about the man who claims loves you escorting famous models to a parties in Rome." Ouch are you trying to get her to be jealous? Apparently Jax is hoping to get a reaction out of Sam and team up in their jealousy but it didn't really work as planned.    I absolutely loved Sam's line to Jax, "Well Jax, if this is keeping you up at night, maybe you should give her a call. You wish you were in Rome saving Brenda. " Sam is absolutely correct here and it is driving Jax crazy to not be the one Brenda wanted to be there or to fight those feelings to keep his current love happy.  I also want to see how these scenes play-out tomorrow.  I have a feeling Sam will cover for Jax in efforts to not cause friction for anyone involved.  Carly will probably go to Sam's apartment and accuse Sam of trying to cause trouble for her and Jax.  Poor Sam will try to do her best to neutralize the situation all the while missing Jason and hoping he comes home soon so this latest fiasco will end.  

We are all just tolerating the situation right now with Brenda in Rome.  Hopefully soon the rumors will stop and settle down about Jason and Brenda.

I, for one, look forward to tomorrow's show, which I can't say I have said recently. I hope you all agree, tomorrow should be an interesting day. 

Oh, one side note, Robin takes the same pills everyday of her life for the last 15 years, wouldn't she notice a new pill in her pillbox?  Love the story line of absolutely crazy Lisa but I just had to point out some reality.  As a person who takes various medication daily, I know EXACTLY what my pills look like and would definitely notice if something else was new in there.
