[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 294460, member: 27"] So now Drew and Dr. Obrecht are being held prisoner together: a Navy SEAL and a brilliant doctor/criminal mastermind are allowed in a cell together? Victor had better look out, because the inmates will soon be running the asylum. I find it really entertaining how Liesl keeps going on about killing Peter as if it's a task to cross off her to-do list rather than making it out to be some important event. I'm guessing Valentin will be the next one to end up on Cassadine Island, leaving Anna a sitting duck. From what I've read, the Nina/Carly showdown wasn't the slap-fest or scorched-earth event I was imagining. Maybe they're keeping their powder dry for future showdowns, since they haven't laid all the details out yet (likely in an effort to create another "stage" of a longer story rather than just ending the story with the end of "Mike" and Nixon Falls). They've had Sonny acting uncharacteristically compassionate toward Nina without saying it out loud, and of course Jason and Carly can say their almost-romance is over and in the past, but the feelings seem to still be there. If Sonny keeps hearing Carly dishing out hateful diatribes about Nina and tells her to lay off (or better still, defends her) then Carly will start going to (and confiding in) Jason, who will always listen to her bitching even if he doesn't agree. I have to say I'm rooting for Nina to stand her ground against Carly's onslaught. I admit I'd probably root for anyone who's up against Carly, since she is just the most hypocritical, unlikeable harpy in town. Nina did something stupid, and I don't think she should "come out on top" in a war with Carly, but I do not want to sit through Carly grinding Nina into the pavement and adopting that smug look of self-satisfaction that she wears so often. From what I read, Nina did not shrink back from Carly in their initial fight the other day, so it's a good start. I imagine Carly's next step will be to weaponize hers and Sonny's children, especially Michael. Since she's carried Michael's balls around in her purse for years, I imagine she will demand that Michael not allow Nina to see Wiley. Would he have the nerve to tell her he won't follow her orders? I highly doubt it, but he will not be pleased to be shoved right into the middle of this Nina/Carly war. It's too bad Michael has no backbone whatsoever, because if he were to forbid his mother to turn Wiley into collateral damage in her latest feud, it would be a thing of beauty. Manipulating the kids (not just Michael, but also Dante, maybe even Ghost Kristina) into fighting her battles for her would be right up Carly's alley. So what can Nina do to fight back? I wish Nina would fall back on the large fortune that she inherited from her father. It was said back in the day that it was hundreds of millions of dollars in Manhattan real estate. As Carly tries to drive Nina out of town (to keep Sonny from buzzing around her!), Nina could reinforce her place in Port Charles by buying up some key real estate---like maybe the hospital. This was how Reginald Love made his presence known in [I]Another World'[/I]s Bay City, by buying the town's hospital and a huge skyscraper where several characters worked and lived (which he renamed The Love Tower). The beautiful new rooftop pool that Carly and Olivia built atop their Metro Court hotel had to have cost a pretty penny; what if they took out some sketchy financing that Nina manages to leverage against Carly and end up owning a third of the hotel? They've never used this plot point (of Nina's fabulous fortune), but they could introduce someone who has been off-screen managing her real estate portfolio, who then comes to PC to help her make some moves to consolidate her place in Port Charles society.
