General Hospital Daily YAPP Recap, February 5: In one ear and out the other with Curtis Ashford

Welcome to the General Hospital Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What Happened on General Hospital

We have a love-hate relationship with Curtis. We know he's basically a good guy who has been a part of the Port Charles fabric for the last decade. We know he can certainly be entertaining, but he can also be...well...an ass. His high standards for the women in his life and his perfection expectations could drive anyone insane, often leaving us wanting to slam a door in his face or even just scream. He didn't do himself any favors on the February 5th episode of General Hospital when he sought out Alexis to help him get a court order to compel Portia to have a paternity test done ASAP. Alexis refused to take the case and even gave him some friendly advice — don't do it. She was perfectly reasonable when she told Curtis that all he would do was make matters worse. If he has to co-parent with Portia, he wants to be on good terms. Curtis seemed to agree. Then, what did he turn around and do? He went straight to Portia and threatened to get a court order to compel her to take a paternity test. Curtis certainly caught a severe case of In One Ear and Out the Other. We're not even sure his doctor estranged wife can cure this ailment. Maybe Aunt Stella and Trina can take this on and teach Curtis something about "My Body, My Choice."
