GH: Nikolas and Emily Together Again!
Soap Opera Weekly
May 18, 2004

Emily is back in Nikolas' arms this week on General Hospital when she crashes her car and he carries her to safety.

It all begins when Emily galls asleep in church and dreams of marrying Nikolas. "When the ministers wakes her up, reality sinks in and Emily is very upset," sets up Natalia Livingston (Emily). "She gets in her car. She thinks she sees Nikolas on the side of the road, but it's raining and she's already distraught. She loses control of the car and gets into an accident."

Nikolas comes to her rescue, "and for a brief second Emily opens her eyes and sees him," reveals Livingston. "Then she passes out."

The next thing Emily knows, she's waking up at Mary's house, where Mary spins a whole story about the car crash. "Mary says that she carried Emily back a mile in the rain," notes Livingston.

Emily buys it. However, when Jason comes to pick up Emily, he questions Mary's story. Then, Jason happens upon Alcazar's business card and begins to suspect that Mary might not be on the up-and-up.

Later, at the hospital, Emily spots Mary talking to Alcazar and confronts them. "Emily tells Lorenzo to back off from her friend," declares Livingston.

Forced to cover the fact that Alcazar wants to employ Nikolas, Mary says that Lorenzo has offered her a job. "Emily finds it odd that this international gangster is suddenly spending time with Mary. It doesn't make sense," says Livingston. Emily warns Mary "to be careful and stay away from Alcazar. He's not to be trusted."

Mary fears Emily might be right, and that Alcazar will spill the beans to Emily that Nikolas is alive. Lorenzo does actually toy with the idea when he runs into Emily in the park. "Lorenzo tells Emily out of nowhere that he can help her," previews Livingston. "Emily says, 'Unless you can bring Nikolas back, there is absolutely no way you can help me.'" And? There's a huge pause where he's deciding if he should tell her or not."

He might not need to. Just then, Nikolas shows up....
