Chapter 45
     The Impostor 

           Ferncliff 
           Julie's Room 
           March 14, 2000 
           10:45 am 
 

           Julie was reading Soap Opera Digest when she heard the door creak open.
           She saw Dr. Rimmer enter with a young man. 
           ''Julie. This is Lucky Spencer, he is a new volunteer for Ferncliff. He is here
           to help and entertain you today,'' Dr. Rimmer explained calmly. 
           ''This isn't Lucky Spencer! Who is this guy?'' Julie asked loudly. 
           ''Julie, don't be rude..... You haven't seen Lucky for a long time and
           probably forgotten how he looks! You are probably just confused, that's all''
           Dr. Rimmer. 
           ''Dr. Rimmer is right. I have changed alot since you have last seen me, But I
           am still me,'' Lucky Spencer,'' Lucky smiled. 
           Suddenly Dr. Rimmer's beeper went off in the room, and he picked it up
           quickly. 
           Then he said, ''I need to leave, Julie... Lucky, if you have trouble, just call
           out for the guard.'' 
           Lucky nodded as Dr. Rimmer ran out the room quickly. 
           Julie stared at him, ''I don't know who you are, buddy. But I do know you
           aren't Lucky Spencer!'' 
           ''But I am Lucky, I acquired a face disease that gave me a new face. And you
           know what? My new face is so much better than my old face. I am so much
           more handsome, don't you think?,'' Lucky said sounding very cocky. 
           ''I think you have an ego, the size of Frank's head. The real Lucky never had
           an ego ever. Who are you really?'' Julie demanded. 
           ''I'm Lucky!!'' He protested, ''Let me prove it you!'' 
           ''Sure, try your best,'' Julie said not caring. 
           Lucky grabbed his guitar and started to play 
 

           As you kneel beside your bed tonight, 
           keep a little prayer for me in sight. 
           Know that I'll be there when you call, 
           know that I'll catch you if you might fall. 

           Julie, go to sleep. 
           I wan watch you breathe. 
           I wanna feel God's peace. 
           All I want is this, Julie. 
           Julie, you need to get some rest, 
           so lay your head upon my chest. 
           Release all your fears and regrets, 
           it's not your fault your life's a 
           see-through dress. 
 

           ''Isn't that Elizabeth's song?'' Julie interrupted. 
           ''So what? I wrote it, I can change the lyrics if I want to!'' Lucky said
           defensly 
           ''You never wrote this, Lucky Spencer did. And for your singing, it sucks!!''
           Julie complained. 
           ''How many times do I have to tell you that I am Lucky Spencer. And for
           your information, I am a wonderful singer!!'' Lucky yelled his face turning
           red. 
           ''Sure, Sure, Rick!'' Julie said shaking her head. 
           ''Rick??'' Lucky seemed puzzled. 
           ''Sorry, I mean Jacob... Didn't you used to play Rick on Bold and the
           Beautiful?'' Julie asked. 
           ''No, I didn't!'' Lucky insisted. 
           ''Yes, you did It took me a while but I finally remembered who you were..
           Jacob Young, right..Look!! See you are in my Current issue of Soap Opera
           Digest, in the Where are they now section. Apparently SOD said you had
           joined ''Boston Hospital'' after the Bold and Beautiful but left due to
           personal reasons... Did Helena Cassadine hire you to play Lucky Spencer?''
           Julie asked her eyes twinkling. 
           ''Helena saved me after Faison faked my death again... If I happen to look
           like Jacob Young, it's not my fault,'' Lucky said shrugging his shoulder. 
           ''Lucky Spencer was believed to have perish in Sonny's warehouse fire two
           months ago. But if think you are going to pass as Lucky Spencer in Port
           Charles, you got another thing coming!'' Julie laughed. 
           ''I had plastic surgery, Devlin... My friends and family have accepted my new
           face, Julie. You should also too,'' Lucky said confidently. 
           ''I disagree, NuLucky.... For you see, Luke was very close to his son, he can
           tell a impostor from the real thing... For one thing, I can tell you are class
           one jerk unlike Lucky Spencer!'' Julie smirked. 
           ''I am Lucky Spencer!! And for the record, I am a great guy!!!!!'' Lucky
           yelled as his face turned bright red. 
           ''No, you aren't... The only way for people to believe you are Lucky if Helena
           brainwashed the whole town. That is the only possible solution,'' Julie
           suggested. 
           Lucky blinked his eyes and looked confused, ''Maybe you are right that I am
           not Lucky Spencer...'' 
           '' Always protect your Queen, Lucky! ,'' a voice sound loudly. 
           Lucky's eyes glazed and he went silent for a minute. 
           ''I am Lucky, Julie!! And I could be no one else, not even this Jacob Young!''
           Lucky said in a monotone voice. 
           ''See, Julie. Lucky knows who is he!'' Helena said smoothly. 
           ''Bull!! This boy is not Lucky Spencer but Jacob Young... Luke and Laura
           are probably suspicious already, and will probably find the Real Lucky in no
           time!'' Julie pointed out. 
           ''You know for once, Helena. Crazy Julie is right!'' Luke said as he and
           Laura burst through the door. 
           ''Helena, I have a surprise for you. Turn around!'' Laura said loudly. 
           Helena whipped around and gasped loudly, ''Lucky!!'' 
           ''Hello, Helena. Once again, I escaped from your prison!'' The real Lucky
           smiled. 
           ''Then if he is the real Lucky, then who I am?'' NuLucky wondered. 
           Helena glared, ''You are Jacob Young... I brainwashed you to be Lucky
           Spencer, which turned out to be nothing but a big failure for me! I will just
           have to find another way to destroy the Spencers!!'' 
           ''Jacob, you have been a victim of Helena's. The minute you came into town
           claiming to Lucky and blaming Faison for your new face. We then knew
           something was up and hired Felicia to follow Helena. After a month long
           search, we found Lucky today. And what a joyous day it was!'' Laura said as
           she hugged Lucky hard. 
           ''Next time, Helena. I suggest you with a better idea of faking Lucky's death.
           Copying Faision's idea wasn't too bright,'' Luke laughed as Helena glared at
           him. 
           ''What will happen to me?'' Jacob wondered. 
           ''Who cares! I want you all to leave my room pronto!'' Julie yelled. 
           ''What a rude young lady!!,'' Helena said coldly,'' Come Jacob, I need your
           help to poison my son, Stefan this afternoon,'' 
           ''I am not doing your evil bidding. I remember I am Jacob Young and will be
           heading back to audition for Days of your Lives '' Jacob snapped. 
           ''Days? Really? Can you say hi to John Black from me?'' Julie smiled. 
           Jacob looked amused and said, ''Sure,'' 
           '' Jacob, Always Protect your Queen,'' Helena said quietly. 
           Jacob eye's glazed the spoke, ''I will... Instead of Days, I will help Helena
           pick out the right poison for Stefan.'' 
           Then Helena and Jacob walked out the room silently, while Lucky, Laura,
           and Luke looked amused. 
           ''Well, we only hope that Cassadine's hatred for each other will kill that
           family off,'' Luke smirked. 
           ''We can only hope,'' Laura grinned. 
           ''Now, Now. Nikolas isn't too bad,'' Lucky objected. 
           ''He sure is, since he turned into NuNik!'' Julie interrupted. 
           The Luke and Laura looked at each and laughed out loud. 
           ''NuNik, that's one way to describe the new Americanize Nik..... Lucky, we
           are going to be late for your welcome back party at my club, if we don't go
           now. We better let Julie be, I'm sure she has a busy schedule tonight.'' Laura
           smiled. 
           Lucky nodded happily, then he and his parents departed the 
           room. 
           ''Oh, yes my schedule is really busy here at Ferncliff, Laura... I can't wait for
           my next party invite here!'' Julie said sarcastically. 
           Then she re-opened her Soap Opera Digest and continued to read. 

           The End 


           Chapter 46 The Escape 
           Ferncliff 
           Juile's Room 
           March 25, 2000 
           2pm 

           Julie hung up the pay phone after talking to her lawyer, Lee Baldwin, and
           look around the area. To her delight, she saw her orderly snoring peacefully. 
           She smirked then said, ''I knew my sleeping pills would be helpful someday.'' 
           Then stole the uniform off the orderly and left him sleeping in his underwear.

           ''He'll get a surprise when he wakes up,'' Julie chuckled as she put his clothes
           on. 
           ''Bye, Bye, Freddie,'' Julie whistled as she played with his keys in her hands. 
 
 

           Five Minutes Later 

           ''A Red Beetle. Freddie has good taste,'' Julie smiled as she observed the car. 
           Then she smiled turned to a frown, ''Damn, it is really snowing hard today....
           But I am excellent driver, I am sure that I can make to the Canadian Border
           before the storm gets too worse.'' 
 

           Twenty Minutes Later 
           The Interstate, on route to Port Charles 
 

           You Drive me Crazy 
           I just can't sleep 
           I'm so excited. I'm in to deep 
           Ohh.. Crazy. But it feels alright 
           Baby, thinking of you keeps me up all night 
           Tell Me, Your so into me 
           That I'm the only one you will see 
           Tell me, I''m not in the blue 
           That I'm not wasting, my feelings on you 

           Loving you mean so much more 
           More than anything I ever felt before 

           You Drive me crazy 
           I just can't sleep 
           I'm so excited, I'm in to deep 
           Ohh. Crazy, But it feels alright 
           Baby, thinking of you keep me all night 

           Crazy, I just can't sleep 
           I'm so excited, I'm in to deep 
           Crazy, But it feels alright 
           Every Day and Every Night 

           Julie shut off the radio, and started to concentrate on the icy road ahead. It
           had been snowing non-stop since she had left and it was very hard to see
           ahead on the road. She once remembered that Frank said these snowstorms
           were the worst night for accidents. But being a careful driver, she knew it
           wouldn't have one and would make to Canada safety. 
 
 

           Port Charles 
           Karen's Apartment 
           10 minutes later 

           Karen opened a letter and some pictures fell out. She quickly read the note
           and exclaimed, ''I can't believe this. Jagger has seen Ellen in San Francisco. I
           better tell Matt now.'' 
           ''But Karen, it is really snowing hard outside. The weather person said not to
           drive today. You can show Matt the letter and pictures tomorrow,'' Chris
           commented as he drank his coffee. 
           ''Oh, what do those weather people know. They are wrong about three
           quarters of the time, anyways'' Karen said shrugging her shoulder. 
           Then she grabbed her jacket and ran out the door quickly. 
           ''Women!'' Chris said shaking his head. 
           Then he put on his jacket and followed her out of the door. 
 
 

           Port Charles 
           The Road near the Recovery Room 
           35 minutes later 
 

           ''Oh, I know I shouldn't have bought that Almond Joy at the store. But it's
           been so long time since I had one,'' Julie sighed as she drove down the street. 
           She sighed, then said, ''It is snowing so much, I can hardly see down the
           road.'' 
           She then turned on the radio as she drove quietly down the street. 

           It is expected to blizzard all day long, please drive with caution today if you
           intend to go out...... In other news, Dr. Julie Devlin escaped from Ferncliff
           over a hour ago. Authorities are presently looking for this serial killer She is
           dangerous, repeat dangerous!!!!!. If you see her, please call the PCPD
           immediately. 

           Julie shut off the radio, ''Serial killer, please.... I'm a Brainwashed Serial
           Killer. Can't the radio station get the facts right for once.'' 
           Suddenly to her horror, she saw a car sliding toward her and she scrambled
           to get out of the way in time . 
           ''Stupid Driver!!'' Julie screamed as her car slammed against the curb on the
           sidewalk then stopped. 
           Suddenly a group of people came racing out of the recovery room. Frank
           Scanlon walked up to Julie's door and knocked on the window. 
           ''Are you okay, Madam?'' he asked not knowing who was inside. 
           ''Yes,'' Julie whispered as she tried to hide, ''Now go away.'' 
           ''Lady, are you hurt?'' Chris asked as he and Karen joined Frank. 
           ''No, just leave me alone. Or I may be forced to kill you!'' Julie yelled. 
           ''Julie!!!!!!!!!'' Chris, Karen, and Frank said in shock. 
           Julie jumped out of the car and yelled, ''I was trying to make my escape out
           of this stupid state. But due to Karen's idiotic driving, I was forced off the
           road and never had a chance to leave Port Charles.'' 
           She then paused, then yelled, ''But Frank was the worst culprit here today.
           For you see, he stole my St. Patrick's gold again this year. I want it back
           now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. 
           ''I don't have it,'' Frank said chuckling as the snow kept falling down around
           the group. 
           ''Oh, yes, you do. The only way you could paid for Neil's hospital bill was
           with my pot of gold... Just admit it, Scanlon. You stole from me, when I was
           in session with Dr. Rimmer last week. But unlike last year, you are going to
           pay for your crimes!!!!'' Julie yelled. 
           Then she grabbed a plastic knife that was in her car and attempted to stab
           Frank several times in the heart. 
           ''Quick, Chris. Get me a plastic fork. I need to defend myself!'' Frank
           giggled. 
           ''Julie, stop it! You are hurting Frank with that plastic knife,'' Chris smirked. 
           Karen gave Chris a annoyed look as she pulled Julie away from Frank. 
           ''I want my Leprechaun Gold back. It's all mine, It's all Mine!!!!!!!!!! I will
           not be rob for a second year.'' Julie shouted. 
           ''Julie,'' a voice interrupted. 
           ''Mac!!'' Frank, Karen, and Chris said in surprise. 
           ''What are you doing here?'' Chris asked. 
           ''I had dinner at the recovery room. I got sick and tired, eating at Kelly's,''
           Mac answered. 
           ''Mac, arrest Frank!!!!!! He stole my gold,'' Julie said anxiously. 
           ''Julie, your gold isn't stolen. I'm sure you probably misplaced it, and most
           likely in your room in Ferncliff. Come with me, we will take you back there
           after the storms ends,'' Mac said gently. 
           ''Okay, Mac. You are probably right about the gold, I am constantly
           misplacing things in Ferncliff.. My escape plan failed miserably today but at
           least my gold isn't stolen,'' Julie sighed. 
           ''It sure isn't.'' Frank smirked as he, Karen, and Chris proceeded to walk
           toward the Recovery Room. 
           ''Julie, we are leaving now,'' Mac said then he put some handcuffs on her and
           lead her toward the car. 
           ''Do you still make my favorite cheeseburger at the Outback?'' Julie asked as
           they reached the car. 
           ''Yes, do you want one?'' Mac asked. 
           ''Yes, I would,'' Julie smiled as she sat in the passenger seat. 
           ''Then we stop by and get one, just for my favorite brainwashed serial killer.
           Then we will drive you home to Ferncliff after the storm stops. But in the
           meantime, we will take you to PCPD for some rest. Your jail cell is still there
           for you,'' Mac smiled sheepishly as he jumped in the driver's seat. 
           Julie sat back in the car seat and sarcastically, ''Oh, goody!!!'' 
           The she grinned happily as Mac started up the car and left the recovery
           room. 
           ''A cheeseburger, my gold back in my possession, but no escape today. Oh,
           well, two of three isn't bad,'' Julie thought to herself. 
           ''What are you thinking, Julie? Mac asked. 
           ''I want you to wake me up, the minute you picked up my Cheeseburger,''
           Julie requested. 
           ''Sure,'' Mac replied. 
           Then she closed her eyes and fell asleep in the car as Mac drove towards the
           Outback. 

           You Drive Me Crazy: Brittany Spears 

           Chapter 47 April Fools II 
           Ferncliff 
           Julie's Room 
           April 1, 2000 
           3pm 

           ''Now, Julie, tell me about your relationship with your Dad. Did you two get
           along?'' Dr. Rachel asked while taking notes. 
           ''No, we didn't.... I thought your first clue would be that I stabbed him to
           death with a fountain pen!!'' Julie snapped. 
           ''Julie, you don't have to be so touchy!! I should of clarify my question. Did
           you two get along before you found about his affair with Eve and your
           brother's girlfriend?'' Rachel asked looking straight at Julie. 
           ''Gee, thanks alot, Rachel. Like I wanted to reminded of that lovely time.
           Why don't remind me of the other time, when my Mom slept with Chris
           Ramsey!! Julie said sarcastically. 
           ''Hmm, well, no wonder you have problems. If I had your parents, I would
           be crazy also,!'' Rachel chuckled. 
           ''That isn't funny!'' Julie glared. 
           ''Yes, it is, Julie. But I can see you can't get my humor... Oh, well, Julie, I
           would appreciated if you could answer my question?'' Rachel asked calmly. 
           ''No, we never got along ever. See, he favored my brother Buddy over me.
           Nothing I did was ever good enough for him!!!!!!!!!'' Julie said angrily. 
           ''Perhaps if weren't such a failure, he might of actually loved you,'' Rachel
           said writing down some notes. 
           ''There is one thing I won't failed it. Let me show what it is,'' Julie glared at
           her. 
           Then she grabbed Rachel's neck and started to strangle her. 
           ''Help!!'' Rachel managed to gasp out. 
           ''Oh, Rachel. After this, you won't be calling me a failure. In fact, you won't
           be speaking at all!'' Julie said coldly. 
           Suddenly the door flew open, and a voice yelled, ''What in Hell is going on?''

           ''Chris,'' Rachel slowly gasped out. 
           Julie immediately dropped Rachel's head on the table and said
           mischievously, ''Nothing much, Chris. Just giving Rachel a neck massage.'' 
           ''Oh, is that what they call strangling these days?'' Chris chuckled as he
           strolled into the room. 
           ''You could say that,'' Julie smirked. 
           ''Julie, can I talk to you alone?'' Chris said loudly. 
           ''Yes, you can.... Julie, we will finish the rest of our session another day,''
           Rachel said quickly. 
           Then she grabbed her notebook, knocked on the door, then ran out of the
           room. 
           ''If you don't like Rachel as your shrink, why don't you fire her,'' Chris
           asked as he threw his jacket on the table. 
           ''She amuses me,'' Julie said shrugging her shoulder, ''Why are you here,
           Chris?'' 
           ''I am here for Karen. You see, she felt really bad about the car accident
           when you tried to escape recently. She wants to compensate you for any pain
           and suffering that might of occurred from the accident,'' Chris said throwing
           a briefcase on the table. 
           ''Well, I was in a lot of shock when I started to slide off the road. How much
           did she want to give me,'' Julie grinned. 
           ''Well, the money isn't from Karen directly. She is a poor medical resident,
           after all... It was Scott, who gave you the money!'' chris pointed out. 
           ''Her father?'' Julie question. 
           ''Yes, if you could call him that,'' Chris replied, Open it, Julie.'' 
           Julie threw open the briefcase and to her surprise the briefcase was full of
           money. 
           ''I'm rich!'' She exclaimed in delight. 
           ''Why yes, you are,'' Chris smiled. 
           ''All this pretty money just for me. White, Green, Pink, Blue, Orange...''
           Julie said then her voice trailed off. 
           ''What is wrong, Julie?'' Chris asked quietly. 
           ''This isn't real money. It's Monopoly Money!!!! What kind of game are you
           playing with me?'' Julie yelled. 
           ''April Fool's Julie!! I fooled you again this year!!! And by the way, you are a
           fool if you ever thought Karen would pay you compensation for your
           accident. Like that would ever happen... In fact, Mac Scorpio is giving her a
           medal for stopping your escape... Have a nice day, Julie,'' Chris smirked as
           he knocked, then left the room. 
           ''Damn it!!! He has fooled me twice these last two April Fool's Day. But I will
           get him next year, you can count on it!!'' Julie said angrily as she stared at
           briefcase of Monopoly Money. 
           Then she shut the suitcase and threw it in the garbage. 
 

           Chapter 48: The Easter Basket 
 
 

           Ferncliff 
           Julie's Room 
           Good Friday, 2000 
           10 AM 

           Julie leaped out bed excitedly and started to sing loudly 
 

           Here comes Peter Cottontail 
           Hoppin' down the bunny trail, 
           Hippity hoppin', Easter's on its way 
           Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy 
           A basketful of Easter joy 
           Things to make your Easter Bright and gay 
           He's got jelly beans for Greg 
           Colored eggs for sister Julie 
           There's an orchid for your mommy 
           And an Easter bonnet too 

           Julie sighed for she knew today she would receive her basket from the Easter Bunny. She
           remember last year that he had hidden the basket in her closet. 
           ''I wonder where the Easter bunny will hid my basket of goodies this year,'' Julie smirked. 
 
 

           Julie's Room 
           2 hours later 
 
 

           ''Where is it?'' Julie said angrily. 
           She had torn the room apart in frustration and found no sign of her basket. She had
           checked everywhere, including the bathroom, closet, under the bed, behind the dresser,
           and the window. 
           ''Julie!! Lunch is ready!'' The orderly interrupted her thought as he opened her door. 
           ''Ok,'' Julie said casually. 
           ''What did you do to your room?'' the orderly asked bewildered. 
           ''I'm redecorating, Bozo. .. Let's go, I am famished,'' Julie barked. 
           The orderly gave her a look and remarked, ''You have a long way to go. Maybe you
           should forget Lunch and start now on your redecorating! If you are lucky, you might finish
           by Memorial Day'' 
           ''Shut up and stay of out my business!'' Julie yelled. 
           ''I guess that somebody didn't have their wheaties this morning!'' The orderly smiled. 
           The he chuckled as Julie glared at him as he walked her down the hallway. 

           The Cafeteria 
           A Table by the window 
           12:30 pm 

           ''So, I looked for my Easter Basket and it was nowhere in site,'' Julie moaned to the
           volunteer. 
           ''Why should I care, Julie. My grandmother is giving me a car because I am volunteering
           here and General Hospital. Isn't that great!!!'' Alison Barrington smiled. 
           ''Alison! I don't care about your stupid life, only mine!!, Julie snapped. 
           The she paused for a minute, ''Now what was saying... I know... I know I have my Easter
           Basket somewhere. You know, that Easter Bunny is tricky, because he hides my basket in
           a different spot each year. I just have to outwit him and find it.'' 
           ''Chill, Julie! It was only a basket! Why don't you go to a Mall and buy some new clothes
           to cheer yourself up. Those Ferncliff clothes don't really flatter you,'' Alison said as she
           filed her nails. 
           ''Sure, Alison. I just use my Ferncliff charge card and buy a new wardrobe! I'm sure Dr.
           Rimmer will have no problem letting go a shopping trip. In fact, I bet the PC malls will
           welcome me, a brainwashed serial killer, with open arms.... Tell me Alison, what is your
           next bright idea for me?'' Julie said sarcastically. 
           ''Well, no wonder you didn't receive an Easter Basket, you are so rude! Bye, Julie. I'm out
           of here!'' Alison said rolling her eyes then departed Julie's Table. 
           ''I will have one! You just wait and see!'' Julie shouted loudly in the cafeteria. 
           ''Shut up, Julie! Some people are trying to eat in peace!'' a man voiced mumbled. 
           ''Joe Scanlon.....I recognizing that mumbling anywhere. I forgot that Frank had committed
           you here.. Why don't move to Green Haven instead. We really don't want your kind here!''
           Julie suggested coldly. 
           ''You leave me son alone. He has every right to live in Ferncliff!!'' Mary Scanlon yelled
           from Joe's table. 
           ''Well, Well. It isn't my favorite nurse, Mary Scanlon. How are you?'' Julie smiled. 
           ''How am I!. Well I am just fine, Julie, since I learned you will be spending the rest of your
           pathetic life in this loony bin... I will never forgive you for trying to smoother me with a
           pillow or kill off my entire family at Thanksgiving. I can't believe I ever encouraged Frank
           to date you. If I had know you would turn out to be a serial brainwashed murderer, I would
           encouraged Frank to date Brenda Barrett instead,'' Mary glared at her. 
           ''Oh, please... No woman is good enough for your sons... Like Karen Wexler for instance.
           You hated her because she was a stripper, divorcee, drug addict and involved with that
           mobster Sonny Corthinos,'' Julie sneered. 
           ''Don't forget she is now dating Chris Ramsey,'' Joe said in disgust. 
           ''I would think that would be a step up for Karen,'' Julie smirked. 
           Mary glared at her, ''Joe was too good for Karen. He deserves so much better like that
           sweet new Nurse, Gaberiella... But there is one good thing about Karen. She would never
           sink as low to murder five people, attempt to kill her good friends, or poison the pudding,'' 

           ''There you go judging me again. Always assuming the worst about me. Did you ever
           bother to find out why I killed those people. Maybe I had good reason, like those people
           annoyed me...... Instead you labeled me and poisoned your son against me. Now Frank
           hates me and wants ....'' Julie stopped suddenly then said nothing. 
           ''What is it?'' Joe mumbled. 
           ''Speak up, Joe! That brainwashed serial killer can't hear what you said,'' Mary ordered. 
           ''I said, what's wrong, Julie?'' Joe spoke loudly. 
           Julie said nothing then glared coldly at him. 
           Then she walked to him and said calmly, ''I see that you have two Easter Baskets on your
           table.'' 
           ''That's correct.. One from Ferncliff and another from my mom!'' Joe said slowly. 
           ''Liar!! You stole the Basket that was personally given to me from the Easter Bunny!''
           Julie yelled. 
           She gave him a angry look then she suddenly tackled to him down to the floor. 
           ''You give me that Easter Basket now!! Julie ordered loudly. 
           ''Forget Julie. That chocolate is mine, not yours...Ma, get this psycho off me!'' Joe
           managed to say. 
           ''Help!!! My son is being attacked by this wacko!! Somebody do something!'' Mary
           shouted. 
           ''Why don't you stop interfering in Joe's life. He doesn't need your stupid advice. He is a
           big boy and can take care of himself... This matter doesn't concern you at all!'' Julie
           shouted as she started to strangle Joe.. 
           ''Actually, this is one time, I would like my mother to interfere!'' Joe managed to gasp out. 

           ''Julie, just have this stupid basket. Now get the hell out of here!'' Mary said as she threw
           the basket at Julie. 
           Suddenly Julie stopped strangling Joe on the floor, then she grabbed the basket. 
           Then she smiled, ''Thanks Mary, for the return of my Easter Basket. But don't get too
           comfortable, I will make you pay for stealing my basket. So, I would watch my back if I
           was you!'' 
           Then she laughed wickedly as she walked back to her table. 
           ''Thanks alot, Ma!'' Joe said sarcastically as he got off the floor, ''That candy was mine!'' 
           ''Oh, shut up, Joe. Just concentrate on finishing your dinner. And you won't be having any
           of your Easter Candy from your second basket, until you eat all your vegetables on your
           plate! Have I made myself clear, young man!'' 
           Joe rolled his eyes, sat down on his chair, then mumbled, ''Yes, Ma!'' 
           Then he picked up his fork, and to started to eat his broccoli and his potatoes on his plate. 
 
 
 
 
 

           Julie's Room 
           2:05pm 

           Julie signed as she carried her Easter basket into her room, after the guard let her inside. 
           She smiled to herself then said, ''Nobody steal my basket, not even that idiot Joe
           Scanlon,'' 
           Suddenly she gasped and said, ''What the hell!!'' 
           Julie was shocked, her room was clean and furniture was back in it's place. But what
           surprised her the most, was an Easter Basket on top of her bed. 
           Julie started to giggle, then managed to say, ''I guess Easter Bunny was late this year.
           And to make it up to me, my Easter Bunny took the time to straighten up my room. I
           guess, I should of be patient and waited for my goodies instead of jumping to conclusions...
           Oh, well, Joe doesn't have to know that I was wrong!'' Julie smirked. 
           Then she put her other basket on her bed, grab a Cadbury Creme Egg, the turned on the
           TV

           5 am 

           ''Man, I am so tired. I just want to lie on this couch and sleep for hours,'' Chris groaned as
           he fell on the couch. 
           ''Karen, the head resident, won't let us sleep. I am surprised she lets us eat because I
           thought it might interfere with our patient care!,'' Eve groaned as she laid on the bed. 
           ''It's those Nurse's fault not Karen's that we have work so hard,'' Chris glared at her. ''If
           they hadn't gone on strike, we wouldn't be doing their menial jobs around the hospital.'' 
           ''We really need more help, Chris. All of us doctors are exhausted from working day and
           night,'' Eve yawned. 
           ''I agree,'' Karen said as she and Matt entered the on Call room. 
           ''What we are going to do? Hire more scabs, Karen?'' Chris asked. 
           ''No, not right now. Maybe later.... But, Joe is going to help out during the strike. I figure a
           doctor who mumbles is better than no doctor at all,'' Karen said as she rolled her eyes. 
           ''Just make him work in the other side of the hospital. That way he is very far away from
           us and we don't have put up with his mumbling,'' Chris laughed as he kissed Karen softly
           on the lips. 
           ''Sure he can work with Alan, Monica, and Tony at the West Wing!'' Karen nodded as she
           wrote some notes down. 
           ''He could work in the morgue for all I care. Just keep that mumble out of my way!'' Matt
           said sounding irritated. 
           ''By that comment, Matt. I would think that you don't like Joe!'' Chris smirked. 
           ''I don't,'' Matt grinned as the others burst out laughing. 
           ''Come on, you guys! We better return back to work. Patients are waiting for us!'' Karen
           said seriously after the laughter died down. 
           ''Alright, Honey!'' Chris kissed her as the others departed the on call room. 
           Karen blushed, as she and Chris walked hand in hand out of the room. 
 
 
 

           Ferncliff 
           Hallway down Julie's Room 
           9am 

           ''Where are you going, Joe?'' Julie asked with curiosity as she saw him walking with
           Frank. 
           ''I have been asked to help out at General Hospital during the Nurse's Strike,'' Joe
           mumbled smugly. 
           ''What did he say?'' Julie asked puzzled. 
           ''The Mumbler said he will be working at GH during the Nurses Strike,'' the guard
           answered. 
           ''Joe is out of Ferncliff, for good??'' Julie said excitedly. 
           ''Don't worry, Julie, about missing my brother. He will back after the strike ends!'' Frank
           said confidently. 
           ''Damn! I finally thought I was getting rid of that idiot in my life!'' Julie said rolling her
           eyes. 
           ''Nope! You aren't that lucky, Julie,'' Frank whispered into her ear. 
           ''Scanlon, I am going to make you pay for sending your loser brother to Ferncliff!'' Julie
           said loudly. 
           ''I am not a loser,'' Joe shouted. 
           ''You are too!'' Julie grinned. 
           ''We have better things to do than discuss what a loser Joe is, Julie,'' Frank interrupted. 
           ''Like what?'' Julie asked coldly. 
           ''Like helping out GH medical staff during this most difficult time. You, on the other hand,
           better hurry to your coloring class.'' Frank smirked. 
           ''Yes, Julie. You don't want to late for that!'' Joe snickered. 
           ''I'll be sure to save your seat once you return to Ferncliff!'' Julie said smugly. 
           ''Shut up, Julie!'' Joe snapped. 
           ''Or what??'' Julie said her eyes narrowing. 
           ''Or I will be force to shut your trap!'' Joe yelled. 
           Suddenly Frank whistled loudly in the air. 
           The hallway became very silent, then Frank spoke angrily, ''If you two children aren't
           quiet in two seconds, I am sending both to your rooms!'' 
           ''Okay, Frank. Let's head to General Hospital now,'' Joe said quietly. 
           ''Well, I better go to my class,'' Julie said looking down on the floor. 
           Then she ran down the hall with the guard while Joe and Frank departed the building. 

           Ferncliff 
           Visitor's Lounge 
           11:30 am 

           ''Alan, thanks for coming!'' Julie smiled pleasantly as he entered the room. 
           ''What was so urgent. I have more problems at the hospital that are much more important
           than you,'' Alan said seriously. 
           ''Oh, I know all about the Nurses Strike. That's is why I called you!'' Julie said excitedly. 
           ''What do you think you can do? Kill off some of the patients to cut down the workload for
           the doctors!!'' Alan said looking very scared 
           Julie slapped Alan on the back and giggled, ''Very funny, Alan. Don't you know by now, I
           only kill Doctor and Nurses at GH!'' 
           ''Um, Julie, we need all the Doctor we can get during this strike,'' Alan looking even more
           nervously. 
           ''Exactly. That's why I am voluntary my services at GH. You are a powerful man, you can
           get me temporally released so I can work as a doctor at General Hospital,'' Julie
           suggested. 
           ''Julie, I can't do it!'' Alan looked horrified. 
           ''Yes, you can. Taggert can follow me as I attend to my patient. I know you are desperate
           for help, why not use me!! I am an excellent doctor, by the way,'' Julie grinned. 
           ''Julie, you were convicted as the General Homicide Murderer and sentenced for life in
           Ferncliff. There is no way in Hell I am letting a Brainwashed Serial Killer work at GH!''
           Alan said angrily. 
           ''Alan, you silly. You forget that you let me work at GH as Brainwashed Serial Killer
           already. Why not do it again!'' Julie suggested happily. 
           ''Julie, I would rather have Nikolas Cassadine perform surgery than you anyday.. So Julie,
           the answer is no! The day I hired you back, is the day Sonny gets convicted by the PCPD!!
           Bye, Julie!'' Alan laughed. 
           Then Alan pounded loudly on the door and walked out the door. 
           Julie took a sip out of water and sighed, ''Oh, great! I have better luck with winning the
           lottery than the PCPD ever convicting Sonny.'' 
           Then she sighed again, walked up the door and knocked for the guard.

           East Wing 
           The On-Call Room 
           May 22, 2000 
           9AM 
    
 

           ''Yahoo!! The nurses strike is finally over. I am so happy they signed the agreement last
           night!'' Karen yawned as she entered the on-call room. 
           ''And Joe?? Is he gone??'' Eve asked quickly. 
           ''That mumbler was escorted by Mac and the Ferncliff staff early this morning. So yes,
           Eve, Joe is gone!'' Karen chuckled as she poured herself some coffee at the table. 
           ''Oh, yes. By now, he should be locked safely in his room. Never to bother us again,'' Matt
           said as he wheeled into the on-call room. 
           ''I don't want to talk about that insane manic who shoved me in the freezer!'' Eve said
           angrily. 
           ''Uh, Julie,.... That was Frank who did that to you, not Joe!'' Karen pointed out. 
           ''Oh that's right he did. But enough about Frank and Joe ......How about we chat about
           work instead?'' Eve yawned as she sat down on the couch. 
           ''You work?? I thought work was a foreign word to you!'' Matt chuckled. 
           ''I work very hard!'' Eve said sounding very defensive. 
           ''Oh, I agree, you do. That is when you aren't taking your 10 month vacations during the
           year!'' Matt laughed outloud. 
           ''10 Months?? Matt, you aren't being fair to Eve. She only takes 9 months, not 10 !!!''
           Karen smirked. 
           ''I will not stand here and be insulted!'' Eve said ticked. 
           ''Will you sit instead?'' Matt suggested with his eyes twinking. 
           ''No!!!!!'Eve yelled. 
           Then she stormed out of the room, leaving the two behind. Karen and Matt were quiet for
           a minute, then suddenly burst out into laughter. 
           ''Oh, this is too fun mocking Eve. But Matt, we need to get back to work. Patients are
           waiting for us,'' Karen said looking at her watch. 
           ''Okay,'' Matt sighed as he and Karen departed the on-call room together. 
 
 
 

           2 hours later 
           East Wing 
           Room 444 

           ''Okay, who is my next patient?'' Matt said as he was looking at his files. 
           ''Hmm, Devlin, Julie.... Now why does that name sound so familiar?'' Matt said as he
           entered the room 
           ''Matt!! So nice to see you again! Dr. Rimmer just went to get some coffee. He will be
           back shortly'' Julie said cheerfully 
           ''What's wrong with you now?'' Matt said rudely. 
           ''My, My. What pleasant manners you have today, Harmon?'' Julie said sarcastically. 
           ''Just tell me what is wrong, Devlin. Then I can treat real patients who really need my
           time.'' Matt said rolling his eyes. 
           ''Well, I just finished talking to Agent Mulder about Ellen on the pay phone. Then when I
           was walking back to my room, I slipped on the wet clean floor and twisted my ankle. Then
           Dr. Rimmer brought me to General Hospital because our Medical Doctors and nurses
           were at ELQ golf tournament today!'' Julie explained. 
           ''Ellen, did you find her?'' Matt said excitedly as he examined her ankle. 
           ''We have some leads but nothing solid yet. But Mulder is checking every lead out, no
           matter how small it is. Trust me, he will find Ellen,'' Julie said confidently. 
           ''Your ankle has a minor sprain. Stay off your feet for a week, and you will be okay.... As
           for Ellen, trust me, I have my own sources for finding her. I don't want or need your help!!''
           Matt said coldly. 
           ''Suit yourself, Matt. But you will be thanking me, when my Mulder finds Ellen before your
           detectives do!'' Julie said as Matt finished wrapping up her ankle. 
           ''The day I thank you for anything. Is the day, that I am committed to Ferncliff. As for
           Ellen, Felicia Jones will find her before Mulder finds his first clue. I suggest you stay out
           of my life from this moment on!'' Matt said angrily. 
           Then he quickly opened the door and yelled down the hallway. 
           ''Dr. Rimmer!'' Matt yelled, ''Come get your patient! She has worn out her welcome at
           GH!!'' 
           ''Julie!!!!I told you to behave with Dr. Harmon,'' Dr. Rimmer said shaking his head. 
           ''I have no idea of what you mean, Dr. Rimmer. I have been a perfect angel the whole
           visit,'' Julie smiled mischievously. 
           Matt rolled his eyes and muttered to himself,'' Julie is a angel. What is next? Roy
           DeLucca, a saint.'' 
           ''What did you say, Dr. Harmon?'' Dr. Rimmer asked. 
           ''Oh, I will start to get the ball rolling so Julie can get released this morning. Dr. Rimmer
           can escort you out of GH after I complete the paperwork!'' Matt said calmly. 
           ''Bye Dr. Harmon,'' Dr. Rimmer said as he watched Matt wheel out of the room. 
 
 
 

           Nurse's Station 
           10 minutes later 
 

           ''Thank you very much!'' Matt said as he hung up the phone. 
           ''Good news Matt,'' Rachel said as she walked by the nurses' station. 
           ''Yes, it is Rachel. It is the best news I have heard in a long time,'' Matt smiled brightly at
           her. 
           ''Is about Ellen?'' Rachel asked eagerly. 
           ''Did you find her?'' a voice said interrupting. 
           ''Julie! I thought you left five minutes ago,'' Matt said sounding irritated as he watched Dr.
           Rimmer and two guards drive Julie in a wheelchair nearby. 
           ''Well, I would of. But that Nurse Gabriella was flirting with Dr. Boardman in the hallway
           forever. So it delayed my released for a few minutes.... But nevermind about that. What
           did you learn about Ellen?'' Julie asked excitedly. 
           ''That Ellen will be home soon, if I have anything to do about it. I can't wait to show Ellen I
           can walk with the parastep.....Excuse me, I need to pick up some lunch at the recovery
           room. I will be back shortly!'' Matt said mischievously. 
           Then he wheeled to the elevator and smiled as the door closed. 
           ''Oh, I got to go also. I forget about my dentist appointment,'' Rachel said quickly, then
           darted toward the stairs. 
 
 
 

           Ferncliff 
           Visitor's Room 
           May 23, 2000 
           9 am 
 

           ''So, Julie. Let's discuss why you poisoned the Scanlons dessert on Thanksgiving?''
           Rachel asked seriously. 
           ''That was poison. I thought it was vanilla, Rachel... Silly me... Boy, don't I have egg on my
           face now,'' Julie giggled. 
           Rachel glared, ''Julie. This isn't a joke. If wasn't for Frank.....''. 
           ''Where is Matt, Rachel???'' a voice yelled as the door open suddenly. 
           ''Frank!! What are you doing here!!'' Rachel said startled. 
           ''Well, I have a question for you. Dr. Locke... Did you know Matt never return from lunch
           yesterday?'' Frank said accusingly. 
           ''No, but then I don't keep tabs on Dr. Harmon 24 hours a day!'' Rachel snapped. 
           ''Matt was so close to finding Ellen until his disapperance. I bet Rachel got rid of Matt so
           he would never have a chance to find her,'' Julie suggested. 
           ''Julie!! For the 100th time, I had nothing to do with Ellen's or Matt disappearance,''
           Rachel said sounding irritated. 
           ''I have already reported Matt's disappearance to Mac. And he promised me as soon he
           put away Sonny and Jason, he would look right into the matter.... But I promise you, that I
           will make you pay for causing the disapperances of Matt and Ellen,'' Frank said shaking
           his fingers at her. 
           ''Look Scanlon, I had nothing do with Ellen and Matt disappearances... Now leave us alone
           before I have to call security!'' Rachel ordered. 
           Frank glared coldly at her, ''There is no need to call Rachel.. I'm leaving ... Bye Rachel,
           Enjoy your freedom while it lasts. Because when I find the proof that you kidnapped Matt
           and Ellen, I will turn it over to the PCPD. Then you will be in prison for the rest of your
           miserable pathetic life. Bye Rachel'' 
           Then Frank smiled, knocked, then slammed the door in Rachel's face. 
           ''How about we continue where we left off and forget about that loser Frank?'' Rachel
           asked smiling. 
           ''Whatever, Let's just completed this session before Katherine falls off the parahet again,
           '' Julie said rolling her eyes. 
 

           Ferncliff Pay Phones 
           11am 

           Julie dialed the number nervously, then waited for the person to respond. 
           Then she spoke quietly, ''Mulder, it's me, Julie. Matt is now missing!!! '' 
           She listened for a few minutes then responded, ''Mulder, I am positive that Rachel is
           behind both Matt and Ellen's disappearance. We got to find them before it gets too late.
           Who know what that wacko Rachel has planned for them! 
           Keep me updated, Mulder.'' 
           Then she hung up the phone and left the pay phone area

           Ferncliff 
           Julie's Room 
           June 22, 2000 
           11 AM 

           Julie was washing her hands in the bathroom, when she heard someone open the door. She
           peeked out the door, then rolled her eyes. 
           ''Oh, Joy. The Scanlon Museum Tour group is here to observe me today. Oh, boy, this
           time, my guests are Maxie, Georgie and Mac.'' 
           Julie departed as Frank began to talk, ''Now, group. Remember Julie is a psycho. Be
           careful. You can talk to her for about fifteen minutes. I will be right back, I need to make
           some phone calls.'' 
           ''Oh, no problem, Mr. Scanlon. I have had personal experience with Port Charles best
           psycho, Dr. Ryan Chamberlain. Julie is like an amateur killer compared to him,'' Maxi
           smiled. 
           ''Hey, I am not an amateur!'' Julie protested as Frank departed the room. 
           ''You are. Ryan has more experience than you will ever have. And plus, he didn't need to
           brainwashed, like someone I know,'' Mac said smirking. 
           ''What are you doing here, Big Mac? You put me away. I thought you knew everything
           about me when I confessed being the General Homicide Killer!'' Julie said in
           astonishment. 
           ''Oh, I do, Julie. But my children wanted to go on the tour and meet you, for some odd
           reason. Apparently, Serena and Neil raved about you to my girls,'' Mac commented. 
           ''Of course, those brats would. They conned me all out of my Halloween candy last
           October. And now your kids probably want to steal my hidden stash of Kit Kat Candy
           Bars!'' Julie mumbled. 
           ''Julie, please speak up so that the rest of us can hear you!!! By the way, have you started
           to take mumbling lessons from Joe. Because you sound exactly like him,'' Mac said
           sounding irritated. 
           ''Please don't compare me to that caveman. So, I mumble once in a while. Big Deal!!
           Unlike Joe, who mumbles 24 hours a day!'' Julie sneered. 
           ''Is that true you tried to kill Joe?'' Georgie asked as she held her Barbie doll. 
           ''Yes, but due to mistaken identity. I accidentally killed the wrong man and..'' Julie voice
           trailed off. 
           She paused and stared at Georgie's doll, ''Georgie, what a lovely doll you have. Does she
           have a name?'' 
           ''Christina. I named her after my favorite Doctor. Chris Ramsey,'' Georgie smiled. 
           ''What a lovely name for the most beautiful Barbie doll in the world!'' Julie said stroking
           the blond hair of the doll. 
           ''It's just a plain Barbie doll.. Julie, could you please not stroke Georgie's doll hair,''
           Maxie said nervously. 
           ''Yes, Julie. Please don't touch Georgie's doll!'' Mac said sternly. 
           ''Oh, really. Who is going to stop me!'' Julie snapped then knocked the Barbie out of her
           hand. 
           ''Hey!'' Georgie yelled. 
           ''Finders Keepers. Losers, weepers!'' Julie smirked as she snatch the Barbie off the floor. 

           ''Give it back, Julie. Now!!'' Mac ordered. 
           ''No!!!!!!!!! Christina is my doll and no one is going to take her away from me!!! And
           Christina deserve the best in life. Like the Barbie dream house,'' Julie sighed as played
           the doll's hair. 
           ''My mom has always provided the best home for Christina. Ferncliff is no place to raise
           her!'' Maxie objected. 
           Mac rolled his eyes and said quietly to himself, ''I can't believe they are fighting over
           custody over a Barbie doll.'' 
           ''Once I finally break of Ferncliff for good. My beautiful daughter, Christina and I are
           moving to a warm Tropical Island and live happy ever after!'' Julie said happily. 
           ''I thought Christina was your Barbie Doll. Now, she is your daughter... Julie, you have
           really gone off the deep end.. So tell me?? Who is the father of Christina, Ken Sr?'' Mac
           snickered. 
           ''No, silly!!! It's Frank. But if you ever tell him that he is the father, I will kill you. And this
           is no threat, it's a promise!!! There is no way in hell, I will ever allow Frank to know his
           daughter,'' Julie yelled. 
           ''Oh, Don't worry. Frank won't know. Our lips are sealed,'' Mac said trying not to laugh. 
           ''Mac!! Can you tell the nice Serial Killer to give back Christina to me!'' Georgie begged. 
           ''Julie. I will buy you another Barbie if you return Georgie's Doll,'' Mac suggested. 
           ''My daughter is not for sell. Get out before I call security!'' Julie yelled. 
           ''Georgie, It will be alright. We'll get you another Barbie, ok,'' Maxie whispered as she
           took Georgie's hand. 
           ''Ok!'' Georgie smiled. 
           Then Georgie walked up to Julie and smiled, ''You can have Christina. I see you need her
           more than I do!'' 
           ''That was very nice, Georgie,'' Max grinned. 
           ''Georgie, she was mine in the first place. I just took back which was stolen from me! And
           if you expecting a thank you from me, you can forget it. I owe nothing to you!'' Julie
           sneered. 
           ''Come on Mac, Let's go to Toys R US and shop. We have better things to do than talk to
           a insane serial killer, who steals my sister's stuff!'' Maxie said coldly. 
           ''That's brainwashed insane serial killer'' Julie corrected. 
           ''Whatever! Let's go!'' Mac said causally as he knocked on the door. 
           ''Bye Julie!'' Maxie and Georgie chimed. 
           ''Bye, Losers!'' Julie said playing with the Barbie doll. 
           Then the door opened and Mac, Georgie, and Maxie left the room 
           ''Hey. Where is everybody going?'' Frank said as he walked toward them in the hallway. 
           ''Shopping. Want to come?'' Maxie asked. 
           ''Thanks for the offer but I can't go. I have another Ferncliff private tour at 2pm which I
           am doing,'' Frank replied as he looked at his watch. 
           ''Ok, Bye Frank. Have a nice day,'' Mac said as he and the girls got into the elevator. 
           Then Frank whistled, knocked, and entered Julie's Room. 
           ''Hello, Julie. Your next tour is at 2pm, so please be ready! See you later!'' Frank
           instructed the exited the room. 
           ''Ok,'' Julie said stroking the Barbie Doll's hair. 
           ''Nobody will ever take my Christina away. Not Maxie, Mac, Georgie and especially not
           Frank! Nobody!!! Julie declared. 
           Then she smiled happily, ''Christina, you look so tired. It's time for you to have a nap!'' 
           She laid the Barbie doll on the bed, then laid beside her. 
           ''Mommy, needs a nap also. We need to be well rested for our next guests!'' Julie
           yawned. 
           Then she closed her eyes and fell asleep. 
 

           Chapter 52 Dr. Ian Thornhart. 
 

           Ferncliff 
           Dr. Rimmer's Office 
           July 16, 2000 
           2pm 
 

           ''Good afternoon, Julie' Dr. Rimmer said pleasantly as the guard escorted Julie inside. 
           ''I'm ready to start my session. The sooner we finish, then I can plot out my next murder!''
           Julie smirked. 
           ''That's not funny, Julie,'' Dr. Rimmer said looking very cross. 
           ''Oh, lighten up, Doctor. You aren't on my list... not yet, '' Julie said slyly. 
           Dr. Rimmer shook his head, the said, ''Murder isn't a joke..And that what we will discuss
           in our session today.. Julie..'' 
           ''Sorry to interrupted, but I wanted to say hi,'' a man said with an Irish accent as he walked
           into the office. 
           ''Dr. Thornhart. What are you doing there? I thought you were involved with Doctors
           Without Limits,'' Dr. Rimmer said surprised. 
           ''Oh, I was. But I have accepted a residency here in Port Charles. But I wanted to stop and
           see my old friend first,'' Ian grinned. 
           He paused briefly, sat down by Julie, then smiled at here,'' Who is your lovely friend here,
           Doc?'' 
           Julie giggled then blushed, ''I'm Dr. Julie Ramsey and I'm very single.'' 
           ''And she is a very famous patient here. Isn't that right, Julie,'' Dr. Rimmer grinned. 
           ''Oh, yes it is. Ever heard of General Homicide Murderer, I'm her!!!!'' Julie bragged. 
           ''It is a honor to meet you, Julie. I have heard so much about you,'' Ian said shaking her
           hand. ''Weren't you aided by a Greg Cooper?'' 
           ''Yes, she was. He brainwashed Julie into committing murders throughout Port Charles.
           She has been living here ever since January 1999,'' Dr. Rimmer explained. 
           ''What hospital did you work in Port Charles?'' Ian asked. 
           ''Oh, I was an intern at General Hospital,'' Julie replied. 
           ''General Hospital. That's where I am going to practice,'' Ian smiled. 
           Julie was silent for a moment, then snarled, ''General Hospital!!!!!!!!!!!! I can tell you from
           personal experience that their residency program sucks. Surely someone as sexy as you,
           should be working someone better. May I suggest, Mercy Hospital?!'' 
           ''What is so wrong with General Hospital?'' Ian asked with curiosity. 
           ''You don't want work in a place that has a long history of serial murderers. For example:
           there was Dr. Kevin O'Connor, who Lucy Coe dated. And then there was Dr. Ryan
           Chamberlain, Dr. Kevin Collin's twin brother, he was obsessed with Felicia Jones,'' Julie
           said seriously. 
           ''What about your self,'' Ian inquired. 
           ''I don't count. I was brainwashed by Greg Cooper to become a serial murderer!!'' Julie
           snapped. 
           ''Julie!'' Dr. Rimmer said loudly. 
           ''Oh, Sorry. I didn't mean to snap... Anyways, another reason is, that GH is ran by those
           psycho Cassadines and the powerful Quartermaines. You cross one of them, and you are
           fired. Believe me, I know from personal experience,'' Julie said bitterly. 
           ''That's awful. I have always hated office politics. The reason I became a doctor to help
           people get better, not for the money. And Damn it!! And if I am only Doctor who puts the
           patient first at GH! So be it!!'' Ian declared. 
           ''But isn't all bad working at GH. One benefit is you can have all the time you want off.
           And if you want a vacation at any time, no problem. The GH staff is very flexible with your
           life. For instance, I required lots of time off for committing my many murders. Alan
           Quartermaine gave it to me, no questions asked,'' Julie smirked. 
           ''But if all the doctors are taking all this time off. Who is attending to the patients at GH?''
           Ian asked puzzled. 
           Dr. Chris Ramsey and Karen Wexler. I would added Dr. Matt Harmon, but he is on
           temporary leave right now,'' Julie said as she popped a mint in her mouth. 
           ''Family emergency?'' Ian inquired. 
           ''No, he disappeared. But once Mulder finds him and the missing Dr. Burgess, they will be
           back working at GH.... But that is another long story... So if I was you, I would have my
           residency transferred to Mercy!'' Julie suggested. 
           ''Julie's exaggerating. General Hospital really isn't that bad. There is alot of excellent
           doctors and nurses at GH,'' Dr. Rimmer said glaring at her. 
           ''Yes, General is really that bad, Ian. Those excellent doctors gave me the worst
           evaluation ever last year!'' Julie said angrily. 
           ''Julie! You confess being the General Homicide Killer right before your evaluation! That's
           why, you had a poor report,'' Dr. Rimmer reminded her. 
           ''Oh, yes. I forget about that little confession thing,'' Julie said rolling her eyes. 
           ''Well, Julie. From what you have said. It sounds like to me that the doctors at GH have
           forgotten that the patients comes first. But not anymore. I will care for the elderly, poor,
           rich, serial murderers, crazy people, PCPD, good mobsters, bad mobsters, brain damaged
           mobsters, Cassadines and the Quartermaines!!'' Ian said with determination. 
           ''Oh, believe me. You will find all types at GH,'' Julie giggled. 
           ''Well, I am off to General Hospital. Bye Dr. Rimmer and Julie!'' Ian smiled as he left the
           room. 
           ''Well, Dr. Thornhart seems very passionate about his work,'' Julie commented. 
           ''Oh, he is. But I don't see him settling in Port Charles, he isn't the type He probably
           return to Doctors without Limits in no time,'' Dr. Rimmer replied. 
           ''I doubt it. That man will probably fall in love in Dr. Eve Lambert and never even look at
           me,'' Julie said pouting. 
           ''Well, Julie. Don't worry about it. Now, I will be right back after I get some fresh coffee.
           The guards will be outside,'' Dr. Rimmer said as he left the room. 
           Julie sat back on the sofa chair and dreamily, ''Oh, Ian..Someday, you will be all mine!!'' 

           The End
