Jax has a Dilema
Jax soon finds out the truth about Carly’s pregnancy, the child he has always wanted could cost Carly her life.

“It’s like the life was sucked out of him,” says Ingo Rademacher. “It’s like he got sucker punched. Those scenes are quite nice, because of the reality of, ‘I might lose you. It’s not worth losing you over this child.’”

Jax is at General Hospital checking on his brother, Jerry when he finds Carly has fainted after hearing Jason was injured in the same explosion that has injured Jerry. Quickly, Carly recovers and shares Carly’s dire prognosis with Jason. Carly might not be able to carry the pregnancy to term-and she could die if she does.

“Jax overhears it in the emergency room, where there’s just a curtain in the cubicle,” Ingo explains. “Jason walks out. Jax comes in and says, ‘I just overheard what you said to Jason.” He tells her, ‘Look, I want you to have this child more than anything, but not at the risk of losing you.’”

Jax wants his wife safe and suggest she terminate the pregnancy. “He totally says that it’s too risky to have this baby,” insists Ingo. “Even if it’s 50-50-maybe it’s 80-20 –who knows? The fact of the matter is, it’s risky.”

Carly, however refuses to hear the alternatives. “It’s her decision, and she’s like, ‘It’s a 50-50 shot. This is a chance. We know we’ve always wanted a child together,’” quotes Ingo. “Carly thinks that if they do have a child together, it will bring them so much closer together. They’ve had their ups and downs in this marriage. They’ve has a rough, rough, rough ride.”

“Carly really wants to do it for Jax, because Jax doesn’t have any kids of his own,” he continues. “This might be the only chance he’ll ever have for a kid. Do you terminate a pregnancy because some doctor says there’s a 50-50 chance?”

“Carly-she’s a tough cookie,” says Ingo “She’s like, ‘I can deal with it. I can deal with a lot.’”

More May Sweeps Scoop from SOW

Meanwhile, Carly’s pregnancy must remain stress-free and Jax is determined to make sure she stays as calm as possible. When Michael wakes up, it is a bit relief for Carly, but turns out to be not exactly what she bargained for.

Lulu will play an important role in Michael’s return. While helping Michael, she is also dealing with knowing that she might have another brother. More info comes out soon about Ethan soon when Emma Samms returns to General Hospital as Holly Scorpio on May 15th. Will she bring the truth behind Ethan’s true parents?


Meanwhile, Maxie is determined to win Spinelli back and will do just about anything to make sure she does. At the same time, she is fighting her attraction to Johnny when she learns he has slept with another Port Charles woman.

Will Lucky realize he still has feelings for the one that got away? My guess is this can only mean Lucky is still in love with Elizabeth! At the same time, the family warns Nik about Rebecca, but it doesn’t stop the two of them from growing closer together.

Olivia and Kate will reveal a few surprising things about each other in May as the storyline is set up for Dante to appear in June. The biggest surprise is we learn Kate is not necessarily the person we thought she was.

Sonny starts to trust Claudia in May, but Ric is convinced she is carrying his child! He goes as far as getting a court order for a paternity test, which could possibly ruin Claudia’s safety net.

May sweeps will be the time when Sam is Jason’s confidant as the two f them work closely to find out if Claudia actually is responsible for Michael’s shooting. Will romantic sparks reignite? (I doubt it, but teasers are floating around just in case.)

Meanwhile, Patrick depends on his brother and Elizabeth to help him out as he plays Mr. Mom, but he continues to worry about Robin and miss her while she is away.

Robin’s Intervention
Next week, Patirck takes desperate measures to save his wife when he gathers the people who love Robin the most together for an intervention in hopes that she will finally seek the help she needs. Jason Thomspon explains, “Patrick gets a few people together. Robin’s therapist Dr. Brown, Kelly Lee, Elizabeth, Maxie and Matt, and Mac are all there. They basically all say, ‘Listen, until you get help, we’re not going to support what’s happening right now.’ It’s a full-on intervention.”

At first, Robin takes out her frustration on Maxie, but is soon forced to accept the fact that she seriously needs help! Help that cannot come from outpatient care.

Jason says, “She ends up agreeing to going ot therapy. Robin agrees to go away for a couple of weeks, to a real facility to get help.”

Although Patrick has been urging Robin to get help, now it comes down to a classic case of “Be careful for what you wish for,” she’s out of the domestic picture. So, Patrick becomes Mr. Mom and has to find a way to juggle Emma, his career and home life. “Patrick is on his own. He has to balance all of it.” Says Jason. “
