They will probably have some of the same stuff that is here, but I don't have time to cut and paste. Anyway, I found these spoilers today so I decided to post them Jamila S P O I L E R S P A C E > > > > GH SPOILERS AND SCOOPS Week of February 2-6, 1998 courtesy of Soap Opera Weekly, Soap Opera Update, Soap Opera News and other sources! February Sweeps Plus articles: "Carly Decides to Tell Bobbie She's Her Daughter" AND "Sarah Brown's Pregnancy Surprise Hits GH" Important Stuff: Monday: Carly's arrival stuns guests at the baptism. Brenda is shocked to find Jax with another woman. Thursday: Bobbie and Carly argue about spurned children. Helena injects Laura into Stefan and Katherine's relationship. Friday: Carly decides to tell Bobbie she is her daughter. Mac and James come face to face. Not sure which days, but here's more: James gets a taste of his own medicine. Ned and Alexis come to an understanding. Nikolas' recovery progresses. Tony's dark side emerges. Danger awaits Liz. More Stuff: Brenda is crushed to see Jax with another woman. Helena uses Alexis to give Katherine a gift that she hopes will rattle Stefan. Elizabeth upsets Sarah with news of Nikolas' recent companion. Jason and Bobbie urge Carly to get closer to her baby. Amy catches Alan asleep at the wheel. James' treatment of Robin causes Felicia to test him. Moreno offers to make a deal with Jason. Monica tells both Bobbie and Carly how she really fells about them. Lorraine puts the moves on Tony. Carly's past comes to town. A stranded Alan panics without his pills, but he finds comfort from an unlikely source. James proposes to Felicia again. Mac escapes. Carly decides to tell Bobbie the truth. The FOLLOWING week: Mac turns the tables on James. Ned and Alexis make a deal Nikolas starts his recovery. Tony makes a drastic change. Elizabeth finds herself in danger. Carly decides to tell Bobbie she's her daughter Although GH's Carly returns to Port Charles during Michael's christening, she is still suffering from the postpartum depression that made her leave town shortly after his birth. When Jason tries to include Carly in the christening ceremony, she refuses (Carly does intercede on behalf of the Quartermaines, who have not been invited to the reception, however), and is unable to even touch the boy. Bobbie, on the other hand, has bonded with the baby, and despite the rancor that has marked the two women's relationship since Tony left Bobbie for Carly, Bobbie desperately wants to help Carly overcome her fear of motherhood. Carly doesn't respond well to Bobbie's interference, and once again lays into her about having given up her own child at birth. Carly's attack makes Bobbie furious, and she uses the opportunity to set the record straight. Her words strike a chord in Carly, who decides that she wants to hold her child. She and Bobbie go to Jason's apartment and, with her son in her arms, Carly finally tells Bobbie that she is her daughter. Sarah Brown's Pregnancy Surprise Hits GH More real-life baby news has hit General Hospital. Sarah Brown (Carly) and her fiancé, film executive Shuki Levy, are expecting a child this summer. The two became officially engaged in Paris last Bastille Day, July 14. Levy gave the Emmy-winning actress a beautiful (and impressive) diamond ring while on their hotel balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower as fireworks exploded in the background. Brown announced her pregnancy when she returned to the set the second week in January after a more than four-week break (to travel around the world to film a movie with Levy). Because her character had a baby of her own at the start of the year, it will be close to impossible to work the pregnancy into her storyline. Like her GH co-star Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis), who is expecting her first child in the early spring, strategic camera angles, properly draped clothing and carefully crafted stage blocking will help to conceal her condition. And although Carly has already had her baby, now you'll see Brown herself get that maternal glow. At press time, ABC was unavailable for comment. FEBRUARY SWEEPS!! The dynamic between Lucky and Elizabeth is altered dramatically when he helps her through a personal crisis. Lizzie's situation forces Luke to face the darkest truth about his past. A surprising ally helps Nikolas with his recovery. When Carly has trouble bonding with her son, Bobbie intercedes. This spurs Carly finally to reveal that Bobbie is her mother. The revelation causes a major fallout for Bobbie, Carly, Luke and Tony. Brenda realizes that being with Jax will make her happy, but the choice may no longer be hers. Alan's addiction forces him to take desperate measures that may be his undoing. Mac and Felicia turn the tables on Tess to discover her motives. The trail leads them to a well-known Port Charles resident. Helena begins using Katherine against Stefan in order to gain control of the Cassadine empire. Jason is forced to confront his life choices when his involvement with Carly and the baby and Robin impact his effectiveness in the underworld. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ---- - - ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Jan 1998 08:29:54 -0800 (PST) From: Cagey Subject: Re: GH/PC: Huh?

As soon as she dragged Jason out in the hall yesterday I started throwing things at my TV again until my sister bellowed at me to cut it out. ;-) I was so ticked, though. I can't believe she did that. She didn't see the fiasco at the Qs. She missed all of that. And because of that she has no right to subsitute her judgement for Jason's on that. They all, INCLUDING AJ, proved that they are one of the most immediate sources of emotional danger to that child. If Robin doesn't want to see that, fine, but she has no right to moraliz to Jason about that. I don't care WHO is the kid's biological father. >I don't think she's even considered that it's >become more than simply doing a favor for Carly to Jason. Neither do I.

Michael/Robin <> WARNING: Rant and strong opinions ahead...if you like Robin you *may* not want to read this... I was totally p*ssed at Robin on Thursday/Friday...what is she...Miss Thang?? Am I the only one who thought that when she took Jason out in the hall and said "This will take ONE moment." that she would turn around, rip off her mask and start shooting flames at Jason??? I keep expecting her head to start rotating and geen pea soup to start spewing from her mouth. And I'm almost certain her hair is covering the horns she's sprouting. I keep watching for an evil red glint in her eyes. Every time she opens her mouth I expect that gutteral "exorcist" voice to come out. Beware...if you see little baby Michael floating around the house or Carly's bed starts vibrating RUN FOR YOU LIFE IT'S SATANROBIN!. The souls of Port Charles will not be safe until someone destroys Robin: pure evil masquerading as a saint. You know what I'd have liked to see? I would've liked that priest to spill a little holy water on her..."I'm melting...MELTING!" As for AJ, he is her cohort in evil. I haven't liked Billy Warlock from the beginning, I think he does a good job but HE JUST ISN'T AJ!! I would not let him get NEAR that poor baby...after all, he doesn't LOVE the child, he just WANTS him. Ok so maybe Jason and Carly aren't the model parents, but I think they are the lesser of two evils. The Quartermaines want to treat baby Michael as an asset not a person. And HOW DARE they act like that in a CHURCH. Ok, I'm not a very religious person, and there are some religions I don't even like but if I was in their PLACE OF WORSHIP I would at least show a little respect and morals! All of the Q's are obviously SatanRobin's cohorts in evil. If Jason was smart he would get a restraining order on ALL OF THEM. *pant pant* OK done ranting...I apologize if I offended anyone...this is the first time in years GH has actually made me mad LOL!

Despite Carly's inability to bond with her son, Bobbie's own bonding spurs her own to help Carly deal with the new role of motherhood ... an effort that does not sit well with Carly. Once again, Carly's own bitterness comes to the surface as she chastises Bobbie for giving her own child up at birth. This attack urges Bobbie to finally "set the record straight," and what she says is the key to opening up Carly's heart to accept her son in her life. Both women go to Jason's apartment to see the baby, and as Carly cradles her son in her arms she finally confesses the truth to Bobbie, and tells her that she is her biological daughter. * * * * Mother and Child Reunions Carly's back and Bobbie's got her ... little knowing she's trying to help her daughter bond to her grandson. Two years ago Guza started laying the groundwork in the Carly as Bobbie's daughter storyline. While fans have been frustrated that this secret has taken so long to come to light, Guza is thrilled it waited until his return so he could bring this story to fruition. Determined not to be like Bobbie, and abandon her child, Carly returns to Port Charles. However, postpartum depression still has a firm grip on Carly who finds herself afraid to hold her son. One the one hand, Carly doesn't want to abandon her son like she felt she was abandoned, o the other hand, she feels she hurts everyone who gets near her and fears she'll screw up her child. Bobbie tries to help, unaware that Carly is still struggling with depression. Between Bobbie's encouragement and Monica's disdain, Carly's insecurity gets the best of her. When Carly lashes out at Bobbie, she again brings up the fact that Bobbie gave her baby away, Bobbie tells Carly exactly how she felt about loving a child enough to do what is in their best interest. Bobbie and Carly bond, and Bobbie is able to convey the magic of holding your child for the first time. Since Michael is at the Port Charles Hotel with Jason, Bobbie agrees to take Carly to her her son unaware that Virginia Benson has come to town to meet her "phone friend" Bobbie. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ---- We're Pregnant!!! Sarah Brown and real-life fiancée, film executive Shuki Levy, will become first-time parents this summer. Their engagement became official on July 14 (Bastille Day) in Paris, when Levy gave Sarah a beautiful diamond ring ... amidst words of "Amore," standing on a hotel balcony, overlooking the Eiffel Tower to the sound of fireworks in the distance. When Sarah returned to the GH set the second week of January, following a four-week absence to film a movie with Levy, she announced to everyone that she was indeed "with child." However, due to the fact that she recently delivered a baby on the show, it will not be possible to work her real-life pregnancy into the storyline. Sarah herself will require months of "strategic camera angles, properly draped clothing and carefully crafted stage blocking will help to conceal her condition." Fans can probably except that as Carly bonds with her baby, the glow they see will actually be from the actress herself, as she anticipates the arrival of her own child. - - ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 2 Feb 1998 11:07:30 -0500 From: "Donald K Gooden" Subject: GH/PC: Luke and his past S P O I L E R S P A C E When Elizabeth is faced with a personal crisis, Lucky offers his assistance. This will force Luke to face the a truth that he would prefer to avoid. As Lucky helps Elizabeth through a personal crisis, Luke must face the darkest truth about his past.'' Could this have anything to do with Luke's rape of Laura? Hmmmm. I wonder. If it does, I would say it is about time. I am way to young to have been watching when the rape actually happened, but I heard about it. I heard that Laura actually went to counseling, but then they brushed it under the rug when they decided to put Luke and Laura together. Correct me if I'm wrong but Rapists don't often marry their victims. Jamila - - ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 02 Feb 1998 08:14:45 PST From: "Julie Saker" Subject: Re: Re: GH/PC: Huh?

(and i don't mean monica--just that she's treating jason like a child who needs to be told what to do.) and secondly, i agree with taiyin--she has NO clue what she's talking about on this one. she wasn't at the q's the night of em's birthday--in fact, does she even KNOW about that incident, as far as we know? (did mike tell her that day at brenda's? i don't remember...) she has such narrowly prescribed notions of "right" and "wrong" that she can't even consider the possibility that aj's actions and motivations put him in the wrong in this instance. and third, IT'S NONE OF HER BUSINESS in the first place!!! she wasn't invited to that christening either...so where does she get off popping up like little miss fix-it, pulling jason aside, and telling him how to run his own ceremony?!? i was just DISGUSTED with her... >I keep expecting her head to start rotating and geen pea soup to >start spewing from her mouth.

LOL! have you been hanging around pc online? there's a poster there named matt m who ALWAYS refers to her as "satanrobin"! (he's got some very funny gh top ten lists, by the way, at his web site: www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/4443/MMsGHTop10.html) >As for AJ, he is her cohort in evil. yeah, i'm having a very hard time mustering up any sort of sympathy for aj on this one. you are so right that he just WANTS the child-- and even though legally he's in the right, morally he is SO far in the wrong that i don't want him to EVER get his hands on this baby. (i know, this is exactly why we HAVE a legal system, so one person doesn't get to impose their own notion of right and wrong on the rest of the world...but i'm RIGHT dammit! ) >If going to church makes you a Christian, does going to the garage >make you a car?
