50 ways to hide your lover's bloody shirt (But only one park in Port Charles)

Alexis had the bloody shirt, and then she didn't. Nathan was a good boy, and now he's a bad boy. Nikolas was here, and now he's presumably washed out to sea. Things sure do change quickly in Port Charles! Let's discuss in this week's Two Scoops!

Take it to Texas, Alexis. Put it in the hand of your friend Diane. Feed it to a bunny who will poop it out to Sonny. Ride the big red trolley and drop it off with Molly. Although it ain't her biz, you could drop it off with Liz. Give it to Paul, ya'll. Wrap it up in bananas and send it to Anna. Don't go on hoardin', take it to Jordan. Don't let him keep killin', hide it at Dillon's. She might think you're spacey, but you could take it to Tracy.

Clearly I'm no Rhymin' Simon...I could only come up with ten ways. But seriously, dear readers, as soon as Alexis stuffed that bloody shirt in her cabinet, we all knew Julian would find it.

Not only did the writers rip our beloved Julexis apart, but they stooped so low as to have him manhandle her this week! Unforgiveable! How can we root for this couple when Julian has become the monster he's always been accused of being?

Alexis does still have the potentially bloody dagger. Julian wiped it off pretty quickly, so there could definitely still be some DNA on it, but now that Julian walked in on Alexis reaching for it, chances are he will wrestle that away from her, too. Rumor has it that things will get worse and not better for our beloved couple and that Julian will double down on his bad behavior to Alexis. I hope those rumors are wrong.

I knew Julian would somehow get sucked back into the mob, but I never imagined in a million years that he would blackmail Alexis to keep her in line or get physical with her.

My dismay at the storyline notwithstanding, I have to say that everyone involved in this storyline is doing incredible, powerful work. Nancy Lee Grahn is emoting all over the place, and William Devry is playing it close to the vest, but restraint is also powerful. I would be amiss if I left out our favorite legal eagle, Carolyn Hennessy, who is doing a great job balancing her dual roles as Alexis' lawyer and BFF. I really love their friendship.

In other unsettling plot twists, as I previously predicted, it seems clear now that Father/Doctor Griffin is indeed the man who Claudette cheated with and the mystery man whom Nathan shot. Since we know Claudette is coming to town, that will all come out soon enough.

If it doesn't come out on its own, I anticipate it will come out via Jackal P.I. It was so delightful to see Bradford Anderson's wonderful face as Damien Spinelli. Oh, please, bring him back full-time! Although, knowing Kristen Storms will be off for a while and we will have a substitute Maxie, I'm a little sad that this big plot reveal may happen without our girl around.

Some of you have written to me and said, "I don't understand why Maxie can't just forgive him after all the awful things she has done over the years." I believe she will be able to forgive him eventually, but take into consideration that her last romance was with the lying, conniving Levi. So the girl is probably a little raw around the edges still and struggling with trust issues. As Maxie pointed out, Nathan painted himself as a boy scout and lied about his past for a year. She has every right to take a minute to wrap her head around his lies and see if she can live with them.

Of course, this entire storyline is the same as the Julexis debacle -- the writers decided to destroy good guy Nathan and make him into a bad guy. It's almost as if they can't bear the idea that good guys actually exist. The Nathan we know would not shoot someone in a jealous rage, but now the writers have written him into a corner, and he is forever changed.

Young ladies out there reading, take it from your old Aunt Tamilu, there actually are decent men out there who aren't in the mob, who won't abuse you, who don't shoot people when they are mad and are actually kind, good human beings. When dating, look for one and don't settle for anything less.

Moving across town to the chaos currently unfolding at Wyndemere, there is a very good chance that the reason Spencer is so calm and rational about his father's disappearance is because he knows his dad is okay. It all seems a bit rehearsed to me. He may even know exactly where Nik is hiding. When Spencer gave Emma what could be interpreted as a goodbye gift, it seemed that Spencer was anticipating being whisked away by his dad.

Tyler Christopher will also be replaced by another actor temporarily, so that's my strong clue that he's alive. At least I hope the new actor is temporary, but it's been rumored that there are difficult contract negotiations underway.

Grandma Laura bringing Dr. Kevin in to observe Spencer was wonderful, I really like the relationship the two of them are forming. It's not wild passion, but the foundation of solid friendship and trust that could blossom into romance over time.

Laura has gathered everyone who loves Nik to pray and spend time together to make the waiting for news a little less terrible. I really love seeing her step into her rightful role as a matriarch figure in Port Charles. Everyone is even playing nice with Hayden at the moment, but how long will the truces last?

Hayden's mother is in town, and for now I am calling her Brunette Madeline because the character seems like a carbon copy of Nina's mom. As clearly as I can see thus far, she is only in town to try to get some loot from the sale of the diamonds.

I'm also enjoying Liz's blossoming friendship with Franco, and I like how they are weaving his desire to do bad into a desire to be a good friend to Liz. He is willing to do evil, but only to help his friend Liz nail Hayden. I can see the two of them falling in love, but I'm torn because I still really miss Nina and Franco together. What do you think, readers? Would you prefer Franco with Nina or Liz?

Ava isn't going to win mother of the year award either. She's been busy meddling, in Kiki's love life, much to Sonny's dismay. We also know she is not above using Avery as a bargaining chip or punishment in her ongoing feud with Sonny. But at least I am convinced Ava actually loves her daughters and has their best interest at heart, even if her methods lack finesse.

Kiki and Dillon are starting to date in earnest, and Morgan is waffling between staying on at the clinic where things are safe and controlled, or getting out and reclaiming his life.

While Kiki and Dillon are sweet, I don't think Kiki can really resists Morgan if he decides he wants her back. There is some magnetic pull between the two of them, and even when she swears she is moving on, there is still a part of her heart that is just waiting for Morgan to say, "I changed my mind." At least she knows that about herself and admitted to Dillon up front that she isn't 100% over Morgan yet. Honesty, such a novel concept in Port Charles.

Want some good news? Jax is coming home! He is supposedly on his way back for a big summer storyline (and hopefully longer.) I can only imagine that it has to do with who was actually the organ donor for Josslyn, since the writers erased the beautiful story of Josslyn getting Jake's kidney when they resurrected Jake.

I have a hunch that Jax and Dr. Finn aren't going to be besties. I'm guessing he won't really approve of his daughter hanging out with a guy who injects himself with giant syringes full of mystery drugs and keeps a service lizard. I also predict that if there's a mystery involving Jax, his slimy brother Jerry won't be far behind. If anyone could get a kidney on the black market, it would be Jerry. Just a hunch.

I am beginning to believe it's not Dr. Finn who is killing patients, and I believe Carly's faith in him is justified. After hearing Dr. Finn's explanation to Hayden about his research to save his wife, I am assuming whatever he is injecting into himself is drugs he is testing on himself to try to find a cure to whatever took his wife away from him. I think our killer could be the crabby Dr. Mayes, who is still butt hurt that Tracy kicked him off her case and opted for Dr. Finn instead. In the spirit of giving credit where credit is due, I have to give full credit for that thought to you, dear readers, who tweeted me your theories. I honestly hadn't even considered Dr. Mayes as a suspect, but it makes perfect (soap) sense!

What will happen tomorrow, dear readers? Will Anna get lonely enough to date the eternally shady but very handsome Paul? Will Liz do "art therapy" with Franco to get over losing Nikolas? Will Lucas regain his memory and realize who injected him in the neck and knocked him out? Will anyone ever questions Dr. Mayes? Will everyone in Port Charles suddenly go to the new park setting every day? Will Lulu and Dante get a house with three bedrooms before they start making babies? Will Helena's cursed dagger stab someone else before Alexis can get it to the cops? Will Brad and Lucas' wedding finally happen in Alexis' living room, since apparently Queen of Angels was already booked?

Only tomorrow knows, dear readers, and I will tune in tomorrow as long as there are tomorrows.Tamilu
