General Hospital – July 1998 – Alan’s Drug Addiction Part 1
Part 1. Alan calls his dealer to score some pills. He’s not fooling AJ or Edward. While Alan spaces out, AJ and Edward strategize on how to get Michael away from Carly. Justus, who now works for Jason, lets AJ and Edward have it for causing Carly to lose it. (Carly’s faking btw). Next morning, Alan is in a fine drug induced mood. He’s so loopy he’s not making sense. Jason comes to threaten Edward and gets into it with AJ. Alan wants them all to have a picnic so that they can resolve their differences. Jason tells them that the next time they try for custody of Michael, remember that there’s a junkie living under their roof.
These series of clips will take us from July into December (I’ve already uploaded December’s drug addiction clips). Some of these are pretty painful to watch as we watch Alan descend into darkness.
It’s easier if you watch the entire playlist: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=CE219622915641F5
Background:
I kept the “Previously on GH” so that we’d know what other storylines were going on at this time. At this point, they still think that Michael is Jason’s son. They’re not aware that he’s AJ’s. Robin has come back from Paris and is helping Jason raise Michael. Carly is trying to avoid jail (for shooting Tony at Tony’s trial) by pretending her pillow is Michael (it backfired, she’s now being transferred to a hospital for the criminally insane right before Jason had her release all worked out.) Bobbie’s having a relationship with Jerry Jacks (the real one!), Mac and Felicia are about to get married, Jax and Brenda are together again.
