The best part of the episode, the most soapy part, was the beginning section with Georgie and Dillon checking out what caused her dizzy spell. Their reaction to Bobbie's news was very true, real, soapy, and in-character for the duo. I wish they had one of the big stories- love them to death!
As to the other teens, when did Maxie ever display slut tendencies? Yes, I remember her deflowering on the live 'Net feed (and I try to forget that), but she was (rightly) embarrassed and hurt by that sort of emotional betrayal. She wouldn't go around throwing herself at an on-duty cop and wonder- outloud!- about why he is so concerned about the case and not her body! *sigh*
I cannot talk about the "Carly Melts Down" story without ranting and getting upset. I have been a mental health client and take huge exception to how this is playing out. This soap used to bring intelligent handling of it's medical stories, as one would hope from a soap called General Hospital. I could be ok with Sonny ignoring what needs to be done, but there is no balance to his opinion. Everyone else lets this woman's ex-husband make medical decisions for her when her current-tho' separated- husband or her mother would be the legal final say.
It's just a more blatant episode showing how far the show has fallen. It makes me sad. Yet I refuse, currently, to abandon the few actors I adore still who manage to scrape out a couple of minutes a week and hit it outta the ballpark.moreless

ADD QUOTES-
Sonny Corinthos: Okay, I know shrinks work for some people. That's -- that's fine. But last time Carly was in Shadybrook, she was terrorized, she was drugged. That place is like poison to her.
-
Lorenzo Alcazar: Yeah, I find this so fascinating -- a former F.B.I. agent and a former D.A. stonewalling for a mob boss. Ric I can understand -- the shunted-aside younger brother desperate for attention and approval, but you? I thought you'd be tougher to crack.
Reese Marshall: Well, why don't you mind your own business? Or don't you have any since Carly dumped you?
Lorenzo Alcazar: I'm surprised you're taking such a superior tone, Agent Marshall. You took the same path as Carly -- from an occasional night in Sonny's bed to becoming a fixture in his home, this place where he manages to convince women that they're royalty when all they really are is the new flavor of the month, the next cheap contender who are willing to trade their dignity and morals for a hop in the sack. -
John Durant: Oh, what? So she's going to be better off with you in, what, your perfect little world, which this year so far, what -- had three of your children kidnapped, your son traumatized. He's convinced that he killed his real father. Carly just went careening over the edge into a mental breakdown, and that's wiped out what's left of Jason's little bit of brain matter that he has. You're not the cure, Corinthos. You are the problem, and I'm not going to leave my fragile daughter to your insensitive mercies.

Dillon Quartermaine: I mean, we were careful, right? We were.
Georgie Jones: Yeah, Dillon, we're always careful, but there's no guarantee. Mac's going to kill me.
Dillon Quartermaine: No, no, you're going to have time to run while he's killing me first.
