Screw the Quartermaines, the Corinthoses, the Cassadines, and every other major family in General Hospital.

I need these two back, now. I need the Rivera twins in my life.

Mostly, Carlos but I'm not kicking Joseph to the curb either.

I could never discuss enough how much these images mean to me.

Or most importantly:

Both Riveras holding the one thing that's keeping them together.

General Hospital: Are you well enough protected here? That would be my crowning glory wouldn’t it? Nikolas loses his mother and I lose Nikolas.

Yay!  Alexis and Nikolas reunion!  Is it bad that I’m more excited about that then him reuniting with his mother and sister?

General Hospital: So it is true? I missed you.

General Hospital: I know that I may be crossing a line, but may I remind you, so are you with Katherine.  You’re repeating yourself, Alexis.

I've always wondered, is there any Quartermaine-Cassadine family connection or history? Because they are two of GHs core families, where if you were to look at Spencer's-Quartermaines, the Spencer-Cassadine clan, and the Quartermaine-Corinthos, the connections/relationships and history is prominent.

Actually, yes.  One of Mikkos Cassadine’s brothers, Tony, was romantically involved with/engaged to Alexandria “Alex” Quartermaine, Edward’s niece.  Both died in 1981 when they walked in the ice chamber of Mikkos’ weather machine.  Nikolas Cassadine was married to Emily Bowen-Quartermaine, Alan’s adopted daughter.  Both of Mikkos Cassadine’s illegitimate daughters Alexis Davis (born Natasha Alexandra Mikkosovna Cassadine, raised as Alexis Davidovitch) and Kristina Cassadine were both involved with Ned Quartermaine (formerly Ashton).  Alexis actually left Ned at the altar.  Even though Alexis’ middle daughter Kristina is a Corinthos, Ned originally said he was the father in order to protect the child from Sonny and mob violence, which killed the original Kristina.  For about the first year of life, Kristina Davis was raised as a Q in the mansion.  Alexis had lost custody after killing Luis Alcazar and faking DID, so she posed as the Q butler.  Sam McCall, a Cassadine via  mom Alexis, married two Quartermaine heirs: twins Jason Morgan and Andrew “Drew” Cain.  She had children by both, Danny (Jason) and Emily Scout (Drew).  Stefan Cassadine fell in love with Chloe Morgan, a Quartermaine cousin (actually a distant to Q matriarch Lila) and one of Ned’s wives, who was murdered by his brother Stavros.  As for non-romantic Quartermaine/Cassadine connections, I think Helena Cassadine coerced Tracy Quartermaine into working with her at one point.

Does anyone feel like Faison might actually be Nathan’s father after all?  The scenes with Liesl and Britt are making me think this.  Liesl, as bad a mother as she can be, does love her children and professes to be putting Britt’s interests above her precious Cesar’s.  She knows what a dangerous man Cesar Faison can be and that he puts his interests above anyone else’s.  It seems like the writers are saying that she hid her second pregnancy/son from Faison for his own safety and seeing what a terrible father he is to Britta.

But I could be wrong.  My previous wish was for Nathan’s dad to be a more evil Cassadine than Victor.  I had hoped for Stavros for a few reasons: it would piss off Helena, give the delicious Robert Kelker Kelly more to do than crazy, and give Nikolas more good Cassadine relations other than his son and the Davis girls.  But the writers killed off most of the Cassadines.  My second choice would have been Valentin, before we actually met him.  He was supposed to be so evil and such a threat that Helena feared him and we could have had a Spencer/Cassadine team up.  But then we got the dark gray and charming Valentin, as played by James Patrick Stuart, who is married to Nathan’s cousin/sister.

The fact that Ace is a descendant of Mikkos, Helena, Stavros, Ryan, and Heather is one of the scariest things I can imagine. He could end up being one of the greatest villains ever on GH.
