When it comes to movies, there are two things I love more than anything else: thrillers and short runtimes. While scrolling through Netflix for a quick late-night watch, I stumbled upon 2017’s Wheelman, which checks off both of those boxes. Some movies just don’t have a lot of story to them, but instead give you a quick glimpse into a day in the life of their characters. 

In Wheelman’s case, it’s about a getaway driver who finds himself in an increasingly sticky situation after the bank robbery he helps facilitate, almost as if he’s being set up as the fall guy or diversion for a much larger crime about to unfold. This doesn’t need to be a long, involved story, so it isn’t. The entire movie takes place almost entirely inside a car, with our protagonist trying to figure out in real time exactly what’s going on through frantic phone calls, most of which go straight to voicemail.

There’s no worldbuilding or deep lore in Wheelman. It’s just a guy in a car who knows he’s in trouble, and, even worse, knows he doesn’t have a lot of options, or time, to get out of it. Sometimes, that’s all a movie needs to be, and whenever that’s the case, I’m always here for it.

The Entire Plot In 4 Sentences 

Frank Grillo is a getaway driver for hire known only as Wheelman, and he’s instructed by his handler to ditch the bank robbers he’s supposed to help escape after they load the money into his trunk. Thinking that Clay (Garret Dillahunt), the partner who arranged the robbery, has something to do with this setup, Wheelman tries to reach him by cellphone but can’t get a hold of him, all while receiving menacing texts from an unknown sender. Wheelman worries about the safety of his 13-year-old daughter, Katie (Caitlin Carmichael), and, to a lesser degree, his ex-wife Jessica (Wendy Moniz), because they’re mentioned by name and he has no idea who he’s dealing with. As the night progresses, Wheelman learns that Clay is tangled up with competing crime families, putting him in the kind of situation that doesn’t come with a clear-cut exit strategy.

Like I said, Wheelman is a relentlessly tight thriller, mostly involving a guy on the phone trying to figure out his next move. In this case, there’s gunplay, dangerous people, and no obvious solution to our protagonist’s problems. As the film barrels into its second and third acts, the stakes continually rise because we learn more about who’s involved, what they want from Wheelman, and exactly how his family factors into all of it if he doesn’t do everything they say.

The film’s tagline is simply, “Drive Fast. Think Faster,” and there’s really no better way to sum it up. As an avid advocate for shorter runtimes and smaller budgets, I’m here to dispel a very important myth: short runtimes are not for short attention spans. Wheelman is one of those “blink and you miss it” films where every single second counts. Every turn signal, cryptic message, voice in the background of a phone call, and all 286 F-bombs carry weight and continually add to the tension. For $5 million, you really can’t beat a movie like this because it’s an exercise in constant escalation, but it still paces itself in a way that keeps everything grounded in reality.

The Perfect “Guy In A Car” Double Feature

While Wheelman earns its keep as a neo-noir action thriller, it shares a similar setup with 2013’s Locke starring Tom Hardy. In that film, which was also produced for around $2 million and clocks in at just 85 minutes, Hardy plays a construction foreman ditching work the night before the biggest concrete pour of his career because a woman he had an affair with is about to give birth. The entire movie is him driving, calling colleagues and city officials, and making increasingly desperate phone calls home as he breaks the news to his wife and sons.

As boring as Locke sounds on paper, it’s a captivating watch because it’s about a man trying to do the right thing after making a massive mistake. His life as he knows it is over, and he understands that, but he still keeps his composure while flying down the highway, determined to be present for the birth of his child for reasons that don’t initially make total sense, but become clearer as his late-night drive progresses.

Both films are cut from the same cloth, but operate on completely different frequencies. They’re also both streaming on Netflix, so my recommendation is to check them out the next time you want something a little different. Watch Locke for the emotional weight, then pivot over to Wheelman for the thrill of being on the run with a trunk full of money while your family waits on the sidelines, hoping you get to them before some unknown assailant does.

Nicki Minaj is finally spilling the tea on why she decided to publicly support Donald Trump and fully embrace the MAGA movement. In a new interview, Nicki made it clear she’s always rocked with Trump, but got tired of hiding how she really felt. Now, she’s reached a point where she wants to keep it real about why she’s decided to not only stick with him, but beside him!

Nicki Minaj Keeps It Real About Why She’s Been Team Trump From The Jump

The rapper recently spoke exclusively with Time and kept it real about why she decided to publicly back Donald Trump. Nicki said she’s always thought Trump was solid, but stayed quiet because she feared backlash. Additionally, she said she thinks many celebrities support him privately but won’t say so publicly.

“I felt that way already about him, just that I didn’t dare act like that publicly. It’s been ingrained in everyone’s brain in the music business that we are supposed to be a Democratic family. I just knew they would not like me supporting Trump.” Minaj continued, “Many celebrities feel the way I do, but they don’t say it.”

Still, Nicki said she wanted to stand ten toes down in her truth and speak up to spark change, rather than hide how she really feels. “Sometimes you just need one brave person to get the brunt of the impact. I think I am the catalyst for that change.” 

From there, Minaj said she hopes her honesty pushes people who support him to stand up and speak out. She said there’s nothing to be afraid of and wants people to stop hiding their true feelings.

“Hopefully when they see me and hear me speak and feel my energy that will make them say, ‘You know what: Who am I afraid of? What am I afraid of?’” 

Nicki Says The Hate Makes Her Want To Support Donnie Even More

Despite hesitating at first, Nicki Minaj hasn’t held back in recent months about standing with Donald Trump. In January, she spoke at his Account Summit in Washington, D.C. She made it clear that she’s always been his “number one fan” and the hate he gets doesn’t bother her — it actually makes her want to support him even more.

“I’m probably the president’s number one fan. And that’s not going to change,” she said. “And the hate and what people have to say, it does not affect me. At all. It actually motivates me to support him more. And it’s going to motivate all of us to support him more. We’re not going to let them get away with bullying him and, you know, the smear campaigns — it’s not going to work… He has a lot of force behind him and God is protecting him.”

Minaj Gives Trump His Flowers During AmericaFest Interview

Nicki originally made her stance clear at the end of 2025 at AmericaFest. She sat down with Turning Point USA and the late Charlie Kirk’s wife, Erika Kirk. During the chat, Nicki praised Donnie and gave him credit for staying strong through the backlash and shade.

“I have the utmost respect and admiration for our president.” Nicki continued, “I don’t know if he even knows this but he’s given so many people hope that there’s a chance to beat the bad guys, and to win and to do it with your head held high and your integrity intact.”

Young and the Restless hints about Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and whether he’s about to be Phyllis Summers‘ (Michelle Stafford) next romantic mistake. We know Matt’s not going anywhere anytime soon. And that means there’s all kinds of possibilities ahead, including a sizzling fling with Phyllis. And I’m going to tell you why I know he’s not going anywhere.

We’re going to get into how and why Y&R may have a long-term strategy to keep Matt in Genoa City despite his long list of crimes and how Phyllis may play into all of this.

Matt Clark Remains Mentally Lost on Young and the Restless

So this week, Matt remains mentally lost with no idea who he is other than his name and the fact that Noah Newman and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) hate him. Although Matt did get back sort of a shadowy memory of Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) punching him in the face, but he doesn’t know who that guy is either. But once Phyllis realized she was talking to the Matt Clark, the guy that the Newmans are desperate to locate, Phyllis knew she was sitting on huge leverage.

She stashed Matt this week in a room at the GCAC and she warned him, “Don’t go wandering off.” And then Phyllis and Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) went over to the Newman ranch and they dangled the offer of Matt in their faces. Phyllis demanded that Victor call off Christine Blair Romalotti (Lauralee Bell) and make sure she doesn’t prosecute her for stealing Newman using that fake AI generated evidence that Victor created.

Victor Wants Matt on Y&R

So, he is interested in getting his hands on Matt, especially since Nick is getting high again and running around plotting premeditated murder with the insane idea that he can get Detective Burrow (Matt Cohen) to side with him on it being self-defense when it’s clearly murder one. That’s what it is when you’re plotting ahead to kill somebody. And Victor agreed with Phyllis that she could trade Matt for dropping the charges against her. However, he also wants Newman Enterprises back.

I mean, it seems a foregone conclusion that Phyllis isn’t going to be able to keep the Newmans’ company. So, she might negotiate some sort of buyout. You know, Victor gets Matt and Newman and Phyllis gets the charges dropped and a couple of million dollars. You know, we’ll see how that negotiation goes. But from there, you would assume that Matt would be taking a dirt nap or would be sent off to prison. However, there’s some new information saying it’s not going to go that way.

Behind The Scenes Info Says Matt Is Sticking Around Young and the Restless

With May sweeps wrapping up next week on Wednesday, May 20th, you would expect to see Victor get Matt and then boom, it’s all over. But here’s the new information. All right, so last week on May 6, Michelle Stafford posted a video from Hair and Makeup at Y&R behind the scenes and it was showing her getting ready to film that day.

So, stuff taping on May 6 would air sometime in early to mid June because they film roughly about 4 weeks ahead. And that’s fine. We obviously expect Phyllis to be around then, of course. But then she flipped her camera and said, “Look who’s here with me.” Michelle said, “Here I am with the great Roger Howarth.”

And then she said, “There’s many, many things to come.” So that means Matt is around for at least 3 weeks to a month more, and possibly longer. And when Michelle posted the video, she added the caption, “Let the games begin.”

Young and the Restless: Michelle Stafford Drops Huge Hint

So, if you happen to also watch General Hospital, you might know she played a character over there, Nina Reeves, who was romantically involved with Roger Howarth’s character, Franco Baldwin. He was an artist and a serial killer who was later reformed. So, there’s already a proven chemistry test on a soap for these two actors. And with Matt sticking around and Phyllis stumbling into his storyline, it feels like there’s more to it. With Michelle Stafford saying there’s much more to come, that seems like a huge hint.

Victor Cannot Let Nick Kill Matt on Y&R

Victor just told Nick flat out he cannot kill Matt. But also this week, Nick is buying more opioid pills from a dealer in the park, which means he will be high and out of control. And I mean, we all know Nick’s already a violent hothead. Plus, he’s really mad that Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) told Victor he’s using again on Young and the Restless.

That led to a really sweet scene this week with Nick hugging Victor and saying he wants to get clean, but until he gets into actual rehab, all bets are off. I suspect that Phyllis hands Matt over to save herself from prison and then Nick is high and his self-defense murder plan goes awry. Victor and Adam and everybody else told him not to do it. Only Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) is in support of Nick’s plan. And frankly, Noah’s an idiot.

Young and the Restless: Matt Remains a Free Man

Also, Matt was released from Genoa City police custody before he took off for Vegas because he didn’t do anything that they could hold him on. And after that, Matt didn’t commit any more crimes in Genoa City. So, Detective Burrow has nothing to arrest Matt for that was done in their district. As to any crimes in Las Vegas, there’s not a lot of tangible proof. Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Noah went to the old gas station of their own accord, and nobody else saw Matt there.

So, it’s a he said she said against Matt who will claim innocence or simply can’t remember. Nobody saw him blow up the place. Sienna did, but she’s his aggrieved ex-wife who attacked him. And in fact, the only thing that they might be able to prove is that Sienna violently bashed Matt in the head. You know, she might have left some DNA on him or they could find the rock with his blood and her DNA where she attacked him. And bottom line, none of the Vegas stuff is going to help the Newmans get Matt arrested in Genoa City.

Matt Could Press Charges Against the Newmans

So, when Sharon says she wants the cops to handle it, the question is handle what? I don’t think they’d go get Matt. And at this point, he’s an innocent amnesiac with some unprovable accusations against him from across the country. And when Phyllis hands him over to Victor, I absolutely think things are going to go sideways.

If the Newmans do anything to Matt, if they hurt him in any way, like if Nick violently attacks him like he’s planning to do, it’s actually Matt who could press charges. So, there is room in the storyline for Roger Howarth to stick around even if the Newmans hate it. And yes, Matt would probably be annoyed at Phyllis for handing him over to Victor, but he’d get over it, especially if she wound up with a pile of cash.

Young and the Restless: Phyllis Needs a Man?

Now, we know Phyllis usually needs a man in her life, but no sensible guy in Genoa City would go near her, but Matt would. And I expect that he may get his memories back, but keep faking amnesia. Or maybe they don’t come back. But the bottom line, Y&R might be planning to keep Roger Howarth around. He is an amazing actor.

If you’ve never seen him before, he’s doing great on here and I have years of watching him on General Hospital. He’s fantastic. So, Matt could stick around and be an ongoing sore spot for the Newmans and Phyllis would love that. The larger problem is his history with Sharon because Matt raped her back in the day.

However, if he keeps pretending he’s got amnesia or if that amnesia is long-term, that’s a possible way around this. If you remember, he asked Phyllis, “If you can’t remember the crime, are you redeemable?”

They were talking about Crazy Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) at the time, but Matt was clearly thinking about the villain that Noah accused him of that Matt just can’t remember. So, yeah, there is a chance Phyllis’s new man could be Matt. Even worse, there could be a Phyllis, Matt, and Patty triangle. Talk about a three-way match from hell. Genoa City would never be the same.

Days of Our Lives stuns as EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel), and Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) successfully resurrected Lexie Carver, (Renée Jones) and she shocked everybody at the will reading when she stumbled through the not-so secret passageway.

And the question now is, will EJ and Rolf wind up in Statesville Prison for this dodgy medical miracle? So, I want to talk about whether EJ and Rolf may face criminal charges for bringing Lexie back to life after being presumed dead for what is it 15 years. Paulina Price (Jackée Harry) could push for criminal charges.

Lexie Wandered Out Of The Wine Cellar on Days of Our Lives

So, it was just another day for the DiMeras when Lexie wandered out of the wine cellar and into the living room as they gathered to toast Stefano after the reading of his will. And Lexie’s appearance honestly came as no real surprise to Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) and Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd).

They know what EJ and Rolf are capable of and that the two of them had somebody in that person pod. EJ, of course, was stunned to see Lexie on her feet because he thought she was still unconscious and under Dr. Rolf’s care and supervision. But because Leo and Cat were snooping down in the tunnels, Rolf had to hide. And that little lapse was when Lexie wandered away from her underground room.

Lexie’s Family Thrilled on DOOL

Now, you could tell Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) breathed a huge sigh of relief when he saw Lexie alive and moving around. His uncle EJ showed Theo his mom a few weeks ago, but EJ warned Theo it was still touch-and-go and that’s why EJ said we should keep her recovery a secret. However, Abe Carver (James Reynolds) who was at the will reading was absolutely shocked to see his dearly departed soulmate Lexie on her feet and alive and seemingly well.

However, the effort of getting out of the tunnel was too much and she collapsed in the living room. And it was Tony DiMera (Thaao Phenglis) who promptly called 911 and Lexie was rushed over to University Hospital to get checked out. Abe and Theo have been at her side pretty much non-stop, trading off ever since. Although Lexie has been snoozing quite a bit in the hospital, she was awake enough to tell Abe that she loved him. And he said the same thing to her while Paulina was eavesdropping.

If you’ve been watching, you also saw that Lexie didn’t recognize Theo. But to be fair, he was just a kid when Lexie died. But her confusion cleared up after Theo shared a vivid memory from his childhood about a train stamp that she put on him to feel brave. You know, the little engine that could. And that helped Lexie accept that it has been 15 years that she’s been gone and her baby boy Theo is all grown up and a man.

Paulina Is the Odd Woman Out on Days

And of course, this leaves Paulina as the odd woman out in all this. And you know, EJ loves that. We saw Abe trying to comfort his wife. But Paulina feels like a second fiddle to Lexie right now. Paulina is not even sure if she’s legally his wife because his first wife’s back from the dead.

Plus, Abe is going to find out soon that Paulina has known about Lexie for quite a while now. And of course, EJ swore Paulina to secrecy, and he threatened to tell Abe if she stopped him from bringing Lexie back. Theo knows that Paulina’s known all this time. But Abe doesn’t, and he’s going to find out soon.

Abe was disappointed. But he understood why Theo kept Lexie a secret. However, I doubt Abe is going to be as understanding with Paulina. And she already knows it’s going to be bad for her. That’s why Paulina told Abe just go be with Lexie and she sent him away and she turned to Marlena Evans (Diedre Hall) to comfort her instead.

EJ And Gwen Are Going to Rake in Big Bucks on Days of Our Lives

Meanwhile, EJ told Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’brien) they are going to rake in big bucks now that Lexie is awake. But Gwen was really mad that EJ is giving her a smaller cut of the profits than he had originally promised her. EJ also said it would take a while because they have to find the right buyer for Rolf’s miracle cure because it’s basically going to be on the black market. And she was upset. And Gwen also wondered if EJ might face legal repercussions for using Lexie as his human guinea pig. However, EJ reassured Gwen and said his legal team is certain they can work around all that. But I’m not quite as sure as he is.

What EJ and Rolf did could be considered desecrating a corpse because Lexie was pronounced dead. She was a corpse. Abe literally held her in his arms when Lexie died all those years ago. Plus, EJ and Rolf experimented on her without her consent. But I doubt Lexie is going to want to press charges for that part of it. And it was actually Stefano who put Lexie into the cryo tube until Rolf’s sketchy science could cure her cancer and bring Lexie back. Now Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) says that Lexie’s neurological functions seem to be normalizing and there’s no signs of the tumor that killed her. At least not yet.

Paulina May Want Revenge On EJ

But I wonder if Paulina wants revenge on EJ for ripping her marriage apart and blackmailing her. I mean, certainly EJ was happy because he knew bringing back Lexie would ruin Paulina’s life. And of course, EJ wanted his beloved sister Lexie back. Period. But wrecking Paulina was a happy side effect.

So, she may go and try to convince DA Belle Black (Martha Madison) that her ex-boyfriend EJ needs to go down for causing chaos in so many lives and for whatever crimes they can come up with for Belle to charge him with. So yeah, EJ could face some kind of criminal action for desecration of a corpse or unlawful handling of human remains, especially if Lexie’s body was actually buried and she was dug up and put in the person pod on Days of our Lives.

Days of our Lives: EJ & Rolf Broke the Law

There’s also the fact that Rolf’s serums are not FDA approved. You can’t just start running a secret lab like EJ and Rolf did. That itself is against all kinds of laws. Plus, Versix was still considered experimental and it was in trials and it wasn’t approved for this use.

And it is why EJ bought the hospital because the doctor who created it worked there and Salem University Hospital owned the rights to it and had the whole supply of it. So, EJ legally owned the drug. But letting Rolf use it isn’t okay.

Days of our Lives: EJ & Rolf in Big Trouble

The FDA still had to approve all that and they didn’t. So EJ and Rolf could face charges for unlicensed human experimentation, particularly since most of Lexie’s care took place in a secret lab that had never been inspected or approved. Plus, EJ stole power from the city grid to keep it all going. I’m sure there’s a criminal charge in there, too. Theft of public utilities or something.

Even if EJ throws Rolf under the bus, it’s clear EJ was aiding and abetting. And don’t forget, Rolf’s already a wanted man for turning a blind eye to Owen Kent (Wes Ramsey), stashing Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) and Jeremy Horton (Michael Roark) in that room behind the lab. If you’re a longtime watcher, you know that during Stefano DiMera’s (Joseph Mascolo) reign of terror, he and Dr. Rolf never faced any lasting charges for raising the dead.

There were some arrests. But Stefano and Rolf didn’t do any amount of significant hard time for their crimes, but I could see Paulina pushing hard to take down EJ and Rolf for this. But mostly EJ. And while Abe might be grateful that EJ and Rolf brought Lexie back to them, I don’t think he’d intervene. And Belle is always looking for the chance to get back at EJ. So, it might happen. Wait to see if Rolf and EJ are arrested.

Out of all the streaming platforms, Netflix is the one that spotlights international TV shows the most. From Brazil’s Radioactive Emergency that premiered earlier this year and reached up to #5 worldwide, to Spain’s beloved Money Heist that became a cultural phenomenon and ran for five action-packed seasons, Netflix has consistently debuted shows from around the world that are brilliantly made, and aren’t afraid to pack a punch. Among them is Crooks, a crime thriller from Germany that just released its second season.

The series, which was first released on April 4, 2024, has become a must-watch on the platform, reaching an impressive 80% on Rotten Tomatoes for Season 1. The warm reception from critics at the time was coupled with high streaming numbers, reaching the top 10 non-English-language series for four weeks, as well as #2 on Netflix worldwide in the second week after its release, per Netflix. With such critical acclaim and viewership numbers, it’s no surprise that Crooks got renewed for Season 2, which premiered on Apr 14, 2026, and is slowly becoming one of the platform’s best crime shows.

What Is ‘Crooks’ About?

The first season of Crooks starts off with former safe cracker Charly (Frederick Lau) as he’s forced out of quiet retirement in Berlin, Germany, to do one last mission: To steal the valuable “Big Maple Leaf” coin. As it turns out, however, the heist becomes the riskiest mission of his career when the assignment takes a fatal turn, and he has no choice but to partner with his driver, Joseph (Christoph Krutzler), a lowly gangster based in Vienna, in order to survive. Together, the unlikely pair must flee a dangerous crime boss, Hassan Al-Walid (Erdal Yildiz), and his clan, as well as rival gangs, all while trying their best to keep Charly’s family safe.

Throughout the first season, as no-nonsense Charly and more thoughtful Joseph bond and become partners in crime, the duo flee from Berlin, traveling to Vienna and later Marseille. In Season 2, the valuable coin goes missing again and the two unlikely “crooks” find themselves on the run for the second time, but this time outside of Europe in all the way to Bangkok, Thailand. Created by Benjamin Hessler, Crooks also stars Svenja Jung as Charley’s wife Samira, Jonathan Tittel as his son Jonas, as well as Kida Khodr Ramadan, Karl Welunschek and Lukas Watzl as criminals with their own agendas.

‘Crooks’ Is a Must-Watch Crime Series on Netflix

Much like Money Heist, in which the series gets its charm through the perfect blend of action and emotional connection between its main characters, Crooks also brings those two genres together. In addition to being a fast-paced action thriller, the series has the unlikely connection between Charly and Joseph as the heart of the show. “Crooks has potential to rise above the usual crime drama tropes, thanks to the unlikely friendship at its core,” wrote one review on Rotten Tomatoes. “Crooks burns all of Charly and Joseph’s chemistry for fuel across multiple European cities in a slew of chases and turns that are easy to predict but enjoyable to watch.”

So, while Crooks has yet to become a household name, the series has been steadily winning over fans on Netflix. And, after an extremely successful Season 1, Season 2 is looking to score in the streaming charts yet again to keep Charly and Joseph’s adventures going for another chapter.

Are you drinking enough water? Chances are slim. Whether you hate the taste of water or simply forget to drink liquids, there’s a solution that will keep you hydrated and energized without any caffeine: Say hello to the future of hydration with the H2Tab Lemon-Lime Hydrogen Drinking Tablets.

H2Tab’s drinking tablets increase hydration levels, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. They also improve energy, performance, metabolic function, gut health, mental clarity and cellular health. To understand why and how, let’s get into the science: Water is made from hydrogen — the H2 in the equation — and oxygen. Hydrogen has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that, in turn, help your body function better.

Simply dissolve one tablet in 12-16 ounces of water and drink daily. Each pack contains a 30-day supply, and you can take 10% off when you subscribe and save on monthly orders!

Get the Lemon-Lime Hydrogen Drinking Tablets for $30 at Drink H2Tab!

Hydrogen is only one part of H2Tab’s revolutionary tablets, though. Elemental magnesium also plays a major role. When dropped in water, the magnesium in the tablet reacts with water to produce molecular hydrogen gas. This creates billions of nanobubbles that flood the water with hydrogen, making it easier and more effective to consume. Isn’t it cool how drinking water can be so scientific? Oh, and tasty, since these come in a tangy lemon-lime flavor that makes reaching daily hydration goals more enjoyable.

Boosted hydration is, of course, one of the best parts of adding these tablets to your routine, but shoppers have been completely blown away by their increase in energy levels, too.

“Adding H2Tabs to my health routine has filled in a piece that I didn’t know was missing,” one reviewer wrote. “It has given me added energy, increased my hydration, and has made me feel better. I felt “fine” before starting H2Tabs, but after I started taking them, I felt a difference that made me realize that something was missing that my body needed and had now been filled.”

So, technically, if you want to increase your hydration levels and maybe ditch caffeine, the H2Tab Lemon-Lime Hydrogen Drinking Tablets are worth a try. You might just end up feeling better than you have in a long time.

General Hospital delivers Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) hoping to adopt baby Phoebe, but there are obstacles coming their way.

Not only could BLQ’s role in Jordan Ashford’s (Tanisha Harper) crash be an issue, but Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean Parsons) and Kristina Corinthos Davis (Kate Mansi) might also be a problem.

We’re going to talk about a shocker that we might see for little Phoebe’s adoption that could have Brook Lynn and Chase losing the chance to be parents.

Brook Lynn & Chase Want to Adopt Baby Phoebe on General Hospital

So, when Brook Lynn and Chase stumbled across Delilah Wilson (Lily Cardone), that was back in March. They had found her unconscious on the ground and heavily pregnant. Brook Lynn and Chase then rushed her to General Hospital and Delilah ended up needing an emergency C-section and then of course if you remember she just abruptly died. From there Brook Lynn and Chase kept checking on little Phoebe when she was in the NICU and they bonded with her despite Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) saying it was a bad idea.

Now with no apparent family that they can find, BLQ and Chase are hoping to adopt little Phoebe. And Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is repping them. And she told them today, or rather on the most recent episode, that if they have any skeletons in the closet to tell her now or clean it up before they file those adoption papers. She warned Brook Lynn and Chase the adoption process included a thorough background check.

And Alexis said that any hidden issues could derail the adoption and that left Brooklyn looking panicked. But it’s not just her actions that could mess up the adoption. Chase has no idea he’s being set up by Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) to cheat with Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen). Now, I don’t actually think Chase would sleep with Willow, but he doesn’t have to actually cheat. All Michael needs is for Chase to get in a position with Willow that looks really compromising and then private eye Elaine and her little dog can be there to snap a photo.

Brook Lynn Might Have Been The Other Driver on GH

Meanwhile, Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) has decided that Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) drove off and left him and Jordan in a fiery car crash. Except it sure looks like Brook Lynn was the other driver. But things do appear bad because Isaiah scraped his car in the General Hospital garage and now it’s being repaired. And because he doesn’t want to tell anybody, he was at Lulu Spencer‘s (Alexa Havins Bruening) house treating Rocco Falconeri‘s (Finn Carr)  hand infection off the books. That’s a problem.

Isaiah warned Lulu that she and Rocco are his alibi. But then he later told Portia he’s not actually sure if the time aligns, but he doesn’t seem to have been involved in the wreck unless he’s lying to everybody. But what does seem clear is that Isaiah didn’t see Jordan and Curtis’ car crash either way if he was on the road near them. And neither did BLQ. She was rushing to see Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) perform at Charlie’s Pub, if you remember. And Brook Lynn didn’t find out about the crash until the next day. So, certainly she didn’t see it.

General Hospital: BLQ Comes Forward

So, basically Curtis’ premise is all wrong about the other driver, no matter who it was in that other car. But if Isaiah’s about to go down for it, I do think Brook Lynn might come forward because she’s the one who scraped the guardrail. But also, there was another car on the road. Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) and Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke), they were there. Nobody knows. And it could have been them that caused Brook Lynn to scrape her car. We still haven’t addressed the fourth car on the road.

But again, I don’t think the kids knew that there was another crash on the road. Not that they’ve said Jordan caused the crash. Bottom line. But if Curtis keeps accusing Isaiah, Brooklyn might have to come clean despite what Tracy says, and then they likely wouldn’t be able to adopt little Phoebe.

Ethan Might Be Baby Phoebe’s Father

In the meantime, it is looking increasingly likely that Ethan might be the father of Delilah’s baby. If you remember, Ethan was stunned when Brook Lynn and Chase introduced him to Phoebe and told him about Delilah and how she died. And then later, Ethan was looking at Delilah’s photo and said that he was sorry for not protecting her. And then he burned the photo and he swore to keep the secret. But Ethan also looked very uncomfortable when he and Kristina came over to talk to Brook Lynn, Chase, and Alexis.

And then Kristina was holding baby Phoebe, and she looked all in love, and Alexis thanked Brook Lynn for letting Kristina hold the baby and they talked about her recovering after she lost the baby that she was carrying after she fell through that window. So when Ethan asked Kristina what’s going on, she told him about the baby that died and said sorry for not letting Ethan hold Phoebe, but he said, “Babies scare me.” And then Ethan asked Kristina if Phoebe would be happy with Brook Lynn and Chase. And yeah, I’m sure the baby would be fine with them Quartermaine insanity aside.

Ethan Turns to Kristina on General Hospital

But if it comes out that Chase is accused of sleeping with Willow and Brook Lynn comes forward as the other car in Jordan’s crash, Ethan may reconsider his stance on babies. Now, we all know Kristina was planning to keep the baby that she was supposed to give to her sister Molly. Nothing’s really changed in her attitude. Kristina clearly still wants to be a mom and Ethan may already be a father, but he just isn’t acknowledging it.

But I could see a world where he asked Kristina to help him with baby Phoebe and to get her. So, if he is Delilah’s baby daddy, Ethan should be able to claim the kid no problem. However, Brook Lynn and Chase might fight it with CPS since Ethan didn’t come forward immediately. That’s not a good sign. Ideally, a good parent would want to claim their child.

Could Ethan And Kristina Have A Marriage Of Convenience on General Hospital?

We also had that leak recently, if you are regularly listening here, about a marriage of convenience. And if that happens, I was thinking it’s about avoiding testifying, you know, some kind of criminal thing. But it could be Kristina and Ethan on baby Phoebe’s behalf. Ethan may want to claim and protect Delilah’s baby, but he’s freaked out about the idea of parenting.

Meanwhile, Kristina would love to have a baby. And if there is an objection to Ethan claiming his child because he didn’t speak up, him being married and having a mom there could help. So Kristina and Ethan, by the way, if you don’t remember or weren’t watching then, they have a romantic past.

Kristina had a big crush on Ethan, but then when her violent ex Kiefer Bauer (Christian Alexander) beat her, she blamed Ethan because she was scared if she revealed that it was Kiefer, he would come and just kill her. And Ethan did later forgive Kristina, and it all seems to be water under the bridge.

General Hospital: Ethan & Kristina Take Baby Phoebe from Chase & BLQ?

Now, we also saw this week that Portia told Isaiah that they had to pray that the real driver in the crash would be found or would come forward. So, at present, it looks like it could be Brook Lynn. So, between the crash and Michael targeting Chase, this could get really messy.

And I could see it work out where Ethan and Kristina work together and basically steal little Phoebe away from the potential adoptive parents if they think they aren’t good for the kid. Not steal like kidnap, but steal as in kind of hijack the adoption process.

If you recall, Kristina justified planning to keep the baby from Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) and TJ Ashford (Tahj Bellow) because of their issues. Kristina claimed that Molly and TJ weren’t fit parents because they argued a few times. And Kristina said that she thought they would split up and that the baby needed stability that they couldn’t provide.

So, while she may tell Ethan that Brook Lynn and Chase will be good parents, we could see Kristina change her mind on that if there are scandals about Brook Lynn possibly being the driver that Jordan almost ran off the road and Chase made to look like he is cheating. So, we’ll see if a twist is coming.
