Perkie’s Observations: Ric Grills Kristina on General Hospital
Rick Hearst, Kate Mansi
On today’s General Hospital recap:
Ric accuses Kristina of wanting to protect Sonny at the expense of the baby and that her reckless behavior killed the baby. Alexis calls out for Ric to stop so the judge throws her out of the courtroom. Ava chastises Ric, but he says he's trying to get the jury to see Kristina is volatile and reckless.
Ric calls Natalia back to the stand and asks her about the car accident a few weeks ago with Kristina. He plays the 911 call, but Natalia insists the car accident was her fault, because she wasn't paying attention. Ric then calls Molly to the stand. Molly testifies Kristina didn't want to testify against Sonny. Molly says she warned Kristina not to go and see Ava, but she was angry.
Ava takes the stand, saying Kristina demanded she lift the subpoena and got agitated when Ava said no. Ava says they were arguing so she reached out and grabbed Kristina's shoulder. She says Kristina pulled away, lost her balance and fell through the window. Ava testified that she would never harm a child, and wouldn't wish that pain on anyone. Ric asks if she has regrets and Ava claims she regrets the death of a baby.
ADA Turner's closing statement claims Ava pushed Kristina through the window causing the death of the baby. Ric's closing statement is about wanting to blame someone for the baby's death, but it was a tragic accident. The jury is sent out to deliberate.
Olivia and Lois think it's great when Brook Lynn and Chase make a run for their bedroom. They talk about babies and becoming a Nonna. Brook Lynn and Chase burn up the sheets (in her pjs AND robe!!). Chase is thrilled they'll be doing this for the first time together while Brook Lynn looks guilty of something. (Gee (o), what could that be?!)
Sasha worries about being pregnant alone, but Maxie reminds her that she has a support system now and needs to do what's best for her.
