"Don't pressure the guy or anything."

 

Jason and Lulu track down Spinelli this week on General Hospital to persuade him to exonerate Sam.  How does Sam plan to celebrate?

By making a baby of course.

"Jason forces Spinelli to come with him after he and Lulu find him at his grandmother's house." sets up Steve Burton. "I wouldn't say Jason threatens him. He kind of feels bad for the kid, but Jason also knows Spinelli is the key to getting Sam out of jail.  So he's coming with Jason, like it or not." The trio endures a high speed chase with Alcazar's thugs on the way home, where Jason and Spinelli then turn themselves in to Lucky.

"Spinelli shows the cops that he made the fake flash drive," continues Burton.  That proves the evidence against Sam was fabricated, and the charges against Sam and Jason are finally dropped.  Jason races to share the good news with Sam and take her back to his penthouse.

"When they get there, Sam says, "I missed this place," previews Burton. "Jason asks Sam if she meant what she said because he wants her to move back in. They've been through a long, hard journey.  It's time to be together".

Sam agrees, but then shocks Jason with her next plan: She wants to have a baby.

"Immediately" gasps Burton. "Don't pressure the guy or anything". He says "What would have happened if we had a kid this whole time: I was on the run and you were in jail? We need to really think about bringing a baby into this world. It's a safety issue."

Jason, of course, already has a baby on the way ... with Liz...but was passed out when she told him the happy news.

"The baby with Elizabeth is an accident", reminds Burton. "Jason would have taken care of the baby and been involved any way he could have, but to actually make the decision to have a baby...that's getting tougher for him because of all the (bad)  stuff that happens to him all of the time."

So, Sam accepts it when Jason pooh-poohs the idea of becoming a papa. "But it's going to come to a head sooner or later" warns Burton. "It might be when Jason finds out the truth about Elizabeth's baby."

And when might that be? Insiders hint that February sweeps will be can't-miss.
