The Perfect Balance

What a fabulous show today.  For once they gave us a perfect balance of all the story lines without dwelling on one or the other too much.  Today was the first time in a long time I did not fast forward any scenes of General Hospital as I watched. 

Maya and Ethan really are a perfect balance for one another even if their just new to this marriage thing.  Ethan brings out Maya's less conservative reserved side and Maya brings out Ethan's humor.  These two are an entertaining couple.  No couple is more entertaining at the Haunted Star then Luke and Tracy and today was not disappointing at all.  We all know the rock Tracy is wearing is stolen but lets just hope she doesn't find that out until after the wedding.  I have seen pictures on some sites the wedding does happen!  Johnny hanging out with the Spencers was amusing today as well.  Johnny and Tracy's loathing for Dante and Sonny lends perfectly to each other.  I loved the line when Lulu walks in and Tracy calls Dante the "spawn of Sonny".  Then  Johnny turns to her and says "I think I love you".  This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.  Johnny is a lot more fun without Olivia.  I loved Lulu and Johnny when they were together but since Lulu had become DuDu I can't stand her. Tracy would be happier if Lulu was with Johnny and I think she would not be alone.  However, I for one think Johnny could do better then Lulu.  Johnny and Maxie would make a cute couple but I am still a Spixie fan.  Johnny needs a shake up in his love life that is for sure.

As for balancing, Siobhan and Lucky are having a problem with balancing trust today.  Lucky has one flaw when it comes to picking women, he wants to be with a strong woman but then want so treat them like delicate little flowers he has to take care of which doesn't work.  He tried it with Sam and we saw how that ended and he is now trying to do it with Siobhan.  Siobhan is a strong woman (not as strong a Sam) but strong enough to handle herself and Lucky need to start accepting her at face value or he will lose her. Not every woman needs to be taken care of like a defenseless little shrew like Elizabeth, Lucky it is time you wise up.  

Carly has a lot of plates in the air to balance right now.  First she has her revenge plan on Dante and Brenda and to uncover all she can to make this hit the fan with the greatest finesse.  But Carly has bigger fish to fry at the present time.  If Jerry is back then life for Carly and Jax's just got a lot more challenging and dangerous for their children and their life together.  While Jax was more concerned about attempting to wreck Sonny and Brenda's date, Carly has reminded Jax he needs to get his focus back on much more important things such as his psychopath brother.  It's a delicate balance for Jax to be loyal to his brother at the same time protect his family and loved ones.

Oh the most perfect balance today was the beautiful scenes between Jason and Sam.  Jason was afraid  that the sheer thought of Jerry and the danger it could potentially bring to Sam.  But as our heroine reminded Jason and us again, she can handle herself and she can handle Jerry just as well as Jason can.  Jerry has come a lot closer to killing Jason then killing Sam. When Jason suggested Sam go stay with him, I loved her reaction.  Jason's penthouse is way too crowded right now for them to be taking that next step in their relationship.  I am more then ready for them to take the next step and I think Jason is but Sam is still being cautious and logical.  I think Jason should move in with Sam or at least start staying there it would be a welcomed break from all the drama that unfolds at his place.  Jason and Sam had some amazing moments today.  Jason's constant physical contact with Sam spoke volumes.  He wanted to be close to her every second even when they were in a serious discussion of Jerry. Jason said to Sam what we have been waiting to hear in a while,  "I couldn't take it if something happened to you."
I was happy to see they didn't let Jerry ruin their night and actually were able to fit in some much needed lovin'.That's the first time we know for sure this couple has actually been together since he got out of prison so the chances for a baby do increase.  The best lines today between Jason and Sam were after they had made love. Sam says to Jason: "Are you checking my locks?"
Jason to Sam: "Yeah, i am checking your locks"
Sam reaches into the desk drawer and pulls out a gun "Baby, that is what this is for."
They are the perfect balance of romantic and self sufficient. 
Their scenes today were amazing and I can't wait for the rest of the week.  Jason and Sam are so amazing.  Keep supporting them and calling the comment line.
