I was going to begin with some variation of “how stupid is Lulu?” but I can only say that so many times. She’s supposed to be plucky and quick on her feet, yet when she witnesses Logan beating up on poor Maxie, all she can do is stand there and make the “duh” face. This is our young heroine, ladies and gentlemen. Weep for humanity.
Instead of calling 911 or hotel security, Lulu calls her brother, aka one of the most inept police officers in Port Charles not named Mac Scorpio. I guess Lulu is so self-absorbed that she doesn’t realize that Lucky, along with Sam, has been relegated to off-screen status until the end of time and therefore cannot assist in any matter that doesn’t deal with Jake’s paternity. Her next call is to Maxie who clearly is unconscious on the floor of Kate’s office. When Maxie rightfully doesn’t answer, Lulu proceeds to hide in Johnny’s living room (with a kitchen knife!) instead of hiding in a bathroom and calling for help. Was it any wonder that said knife would slip conveniently into Logan? I guess she is her mother’s daughter after all.
I have to say that Josh Duhon makes a convincing psycho even if he hasn’t had any significant character development in the past six months. He’ll go on to bigger and brighter things like The Bold & The Beautiful. Trust me, if they’ll hire Brandon Beemer, JD will have a contract in no time. I am a little bit sad that in just over a year and a half both Coop and Logan are gone. Remember when they set up that whole Departed ripoff? As I am a huge fan of the movie (in fact I am watching it right now since I secretly find Leonardo sexy in this movie), I no doubt would have been disappointed in it’s execution in this medium (Bob Guza can’t translate Scorsese…or even wash his car) yet oddly entertained in a way that I never feel watching Robin and Patrick argue about closets or couches. Plus Coop was so tall and hot. I would also like to solve the mystery as to why sometimes Logan had really bad tattoos and then suddenly they were gone. Or the killing spree or whathaveyou that Logan went on while in Iraq. Or any interaction between Scott and Logan. I’ll admit, I enjoyed their banter. Now Scott will become the latest parent in Port Charles to lose a child (again). Perhaps he can meet up with Monica and Mac in a church basement and bond over orange juice and donuts. Maybe they’ll even let Bobbie show up. Really, if it’s between that or Anthony calling his daughter a “whore” every five seconds, I’d rather watch “Veterans who’ve lost children and thus serve no purpose on this show”.
Ahh yes, dearly departed Departed storyline. I was actually a little interested in that myself. I knew better, but I loved that movie to great degrees and Coop was very pretty. Sigh. Maybe he’ll turn up again like Dead!Diego? Nah, not unless Guza wants another veteran killer.
Lulu is really too stupid for words. I didn’t know what to say about her calling Lucky and Maxie. Hey, I know you’re knocked out and all, but could you answer the phone and tell me you’re ok? It’s LULU calling, you must answer me! Maybe she thinks the glitter works on girls too.
Goodbye Logan, you actually had some potential, looked amazingly like your onscreen father and were pretty hot. Too bad you were on GH, where characters go to die.
Dead! Diego, I prefer to think that never happened. I prefter to think a lot of things on this show never happened.
I feel vindicated that Lulu addressed how stupidly she reacted in retrospect, but I’m sure she’ll just flail around in the next crisis situation that comes her way. “Glitter, help me!”
Hey, don’t knock it, you know that the next time the writers are doing some sort of serial killer plot line (next sweeps probably) and they’re mid way through writing it with no idea who the killer will be, someone will say, hey what about we bring back Logan and blame it on him. It was a military experiment that brought him back. And Guza applauds with joy and says that’s where we go! It’ll happen, you wait and see!
I did laugh over Lulu acknowledging her stupidity but I agree, next time around she still won’t have learned. That’s one thing you can count on!
“GH, where characters go to die,” is officially my new favorite slogan. I may create a shirt on Cafepress.com
Hee, glad you liked it ktina! I’m just waiting til the next sweeps, I wonder who’s next on the chopping block.
Hmm…I still think Trevor is not long for this world or maybe that’s just my wishful thinking. Watch it be Nadine though. Wait! What am I thinking? Neither of them are in the opening credits, and if there’s one thing we’ve all learned, is that half of the characters featured there are dead. Therefore, I am going with Mac. Why? Because he’s suddenly become semi-relevant again.
