GH 9/1: Rome Wasn't Built in a Day
Johnny's Room: Olivia sits by Johnny's bed and wipes her snot and tears on the back of his hands. This wakes him up. He tells her she's cute when she's scared. She sobs some more.
Loft: Michael has summoned Jax and says he's unsure of his future and what to be when he grows up, and he only knows for sure he doesn't want to go back to prison.
Kelly's: Kristina and Alexis have breakfast, and oddly Kristina drinks iced tea with her eggs. Also, I think they are eating grits. I can't think of what else would be slightly beige like that. School is starting in a week. Alexis asks about a few of K's friends, and she says they've been busy. Alexis knows that what Kristina means is she doesn't have friends anymore because even nice girls become Mean Girls when a life has as much drama as Kristina's. Carly shows up to breaks the news that Sonny jumped bail.
GH: Sam hobbles into the hospital, unbalanced not so much because of her ankle but because Jason is supporting her, and his shoulder is about fifteen feet above her armpit, so it's more like he he's dragging her around. Walsh angrily demands to know where Sonny went.
Credits
Q Manse: Edwards plays with himself. Chess, that is. Tracy complains about someone. Maya shows up to get a muffin. Tracy loathes Maya for some reason. Maya says Tracy is mad b/c Luke left. Brooke shows up at the terrace door. She says she made a mistake and wants to come home to her family.
Kelly's: Carly say Diane gave her a letter. He left b/c he didn't want to go on trial and to prison for a crime he didn't commit. Carly is concerned for Kristina's feelings and says that the hardest part was leaving without saying goodbye to his kids, and that he couldn't tell the kids b/c the police could call them in for questioning. Well, they still could call them in, but now all the kids can say is that their father cared more about borng revenge nonsense with Johnny than he did about their well being.
Loft: Michael likes history class b/c it's helpful to learn about the screwups from the past. He says he spent his summer doing community service while everyone else was doing internships. Michael says no one wants to be friends with someone who chopped his step mother's head off, and no one wants to teach that kid. He becomes aggitated and says he doesn't belong in high school.
Johnny's Room Robin checks on Johnny and seems pleased with his progress. Olivia sobs some more and says she's not done with Johnny.
GH: Jason is surprised to learn that Sonny left the country. Walsh doesn't buy that he doesn't know, but he insists he's been busy.
Commercials
GH: Stephen and Nik chat about Liz being settled in with Sarah in California. It's nice that Liz is suddenly independently wealthy and can afford to take months off of work to hang out. Also, Stephen has taken to combing his hair with an inflated balloon and honey.
Conference room: Walsh yells at Jason and demands to know if Sonny said he shot Johnny. Jason asks if she thinks Sonny is that stupid. I think the better question is if she thinks Jason is so stupid that he would answer any of these questions.
Crimson: Loo happily tells Maxie that Brooke has been revealed to be a Spy Hooker.
Q Manse: Maya wishes Brooke good luck. Edward knows how to text. For some reason Tracy also seems to hate Brooke. Brooke calls her granny. I guess I forgot that Ned is Tracy's son. Everyone gossips about Brooke for a bit as if she isn't there. Brooke says she had a falling out with Carly and tells the part about how Carly pressured her to break up Dante and Loo and leaves out the hooker and rape parts. Tracy says she can stay, but she has a condition.

Nurse's Station: Maya asks Piph for an update on Johnny. That was a pointless scene.
Hall: Walsh demands that Jason contact her if Sonny contacts him. He says sonny won't call. She threatens to name him as an accessory. Would that be an accessory from the piperlime wall? Sam wobbles up on her crutches.
Kelly's: Kristina says Sonny just up and leaving makes it all feel so unresolved. I guess to Kristina, she reasonably thinks Sonny is gone forever as opposed to the week or so that I believe it will be. Alexis says she feels a little sad. Kristina thinks this proves that Sonny is guilty. Alexis says it only proves he doesn't want to go through another trial. They decide to change the subject.
Loft: Jax says a high school degree is not negotiable, but they can consider a private tutor or something besides Madison. Carly shows up and asks if Michael has heard from Sonny. She says he left town, and isn't coming back.

She says she's feeling the karmic punch of taking Nik and Liz's affair so lightly. she tells him Patrick had a one night stand. Patrick says that just b/c someone cheats, it doesn't mean they don't love the person they are cheating on. maybe. But it does mean they don't value their vows and promises or how devastated the person they supposedly love will be, and that they don't respect the person they supposedly love enough not to lie to them or make them feel like they are paranoid.

Apparently her plan was to steal $50k and then not live there? Or run away? Dreadful girl. She leaves in a huff.

Kelly's al fresco: it's raining. Brooke has her bags and is drenched. Nik happens by with an umbrella. She says she was going to get a room at Kelly's, but he says he has a better idea. I didn't think it was legal for an ingenue not to live at Kelly's for at least a little while.

Uugghh. This entire storyline makes me want to rip my hair out. Yes, more than even Sonny "just trying to protect his kids". For like, the billionth time.

It seems like the writers are running out of ideas. This episode seems like everyone just stood around talking about each other. I wish the show still had more intrigue like it used to.
