OLTL—Friday–8/13—Eli is Running Out of Options

Today, was more-or-less a summary of the week's events, but not too much of anything new was revealed.  Every storyline was left right on the edge.  Now, we have to wait until Monday—AGAIN.  Gee, I guess that's the point—this could go on for years.  LOL

At least we got to see Eli in action today.  He is one of the scariest characters I have seen in awhile.  Mitch Lawrence was scary, but he was insane—that's different.  Remember Dr. Spencer Truman?  He was very scary, and guess who fell for his charms, also. — Yep, Blair oh Blair.

John McBain is finally getting a step ahead of Eli.  His interrogation of Eli in the hallway outside of Hannah's room was awesome.  Eli almost broke a sweat, but he is amazingly cool and he always has all the right answers.  He is going to have a much harder time finishing what he started—if, he can even accomplish that.  Did you catch what he said to Hannah: "You're supposed to be dead. Now, how are we going to fix that?"

Even though Hannah has self esteem and mental/emotional issues, I still like that Cole is very kind to her.  His critics call him "boring," and suggest that bad boy James would be a lot more exciting for Starr.  But Cole is just what Hannah needs right now, and I'm not in favor of breaking up a committed couple/family like Starr and Cole and Hope.  Unfortunately, the reality of life is, we live much longer than people used to and limiting our relationships to one man and one woman for the next 60 years can be an amazing challenge for anyone.

Starr and Langston confront the Fords and Starr tells James there is no future for them.  He takes that news in stride and decides to ask Langston out on a date.  Both Starr and Bobby get bent out of shape over that.  Bobby protests, but James tells him, he had his chance with Langston.  Starr can't say anything.

Natalie tells Rex she is pregnant.  He's all excited and can't figure out why she isn't over the moon, but she covers her reactions, as usual.  She agrees to try to piece together the shredded papers from Eli's shredder.

Kelly really gets Jessica going when she tells her about Ford having blood work done at the hospital.  Jessica is ready to break into the hospital computers until Kelly tells her that, if she gets caught, which is pretty likely she would, how would she explain to Brody why she wanted to see Ford's medical records.  Instead, she chooses to confront Ford and goes to his apartment.

John McBain enlists the help of a doctor at St. Ann's to get Eli out of Hannah's room so he can talk to her alone.  He tells her he doesn't believe she tried to kill herself, and he wants to know what is really going on.

Dun, dun, da......
