Curlyqgrl's Robert and Anna Edits

Robert, Holly, & Anna #1 April 10 – May 16, 1985 – "Anna Arrives" - 8 hrs
This edit begins as Robert is hunting for Slater. Robert beings to suspect that Sean has stolen the treasure and Sean is working hard to ease Robert's suspicions. Anna is introduced as the fence that Slater approaches to sell the jewels to. Robert is honored and paid tribute to at a dinner in NY, many of his friends from Port Charles attend. Anna sits down next to Robert at the hotel bar and later arrives as a guest in his house, supposedly sent there by Holly's nanny. Robert is furious when he finds Anna in his home. Slater shoots Sean as he and Robert pursue him. Sean realizes that Anna is Robert's new houseguest after he recognizes her perfume. Sean gives Anna a job as his secretary. Anna sets up Holly to be found with stolen property and she is arrested but finally her name is cleared and the charges are dropped. Robert and Anna have flashbacks of their past together from meeting, their first mission together, and they sleep together for the first time (still in flashback mode).
I included every Robert scene, every Holly scene, and every Anna scene during this time frame. There is also a lot of Sean's storyline to show him plotting and trying to stay a step ahead of Robert. This is my original edit and it is 8 hours. I had great fun doing this edit, its been years since I've watched this time frame and this storyline was very well done. They showed a whole series of flashbacks that was its own self-contained storyline showing the early history of Robert & Anna, I had forgotten how detailed and how well done this was.

Robert tries to kiss Anna and she stops him and removes the scar on her face, it was a fake! She tells Robert that she has been wearing it for the past 6 1/2 years as a way of doing penance and so that no other man would want her and that she has not been with another man since Robert.
Sean discovers Grant is the person who stole his treasure and becomes partners with him. Anna interrupts Prescott and Grant moving the treasure from the basement of the brownstone and she is knocked out and put in the hospital. Holly returns from London and her and Robert are attempting to reconcile when Holly discovers that Anna's scar is a fake and leaves Robert again and this time it seems rather final. However, Holly never makes it out of town. She stops off to say goodbye to Sean and overhears him and Grant discussing their plan to get the treasure out of town.

This edit continues with the Aztec storyline, Robert and Anna pretend they are involved in a romance (with much kissing and snuggling) so that Robert can ditch the tail that Sean has put on him. Grant realizes that Sean has double crossed him by moving the treasure without telling him and he goes over to Robert's side and joins their team. They all join the wedding train action as much of the cast don Gay 90's costumes, for a train ride up the eastern seaboard that culminates in Grant and Celia's wedding. Frisco, Felicia, Robert, Anna, and Grant work together to figure out what Sean is up to and to try to stay one step ahead of him.

There are some nice reunion scenes between Robert and Holly as they spend time together before Holly departs for Australia (as Emma leaves the show). The Asian Quarter storyline immediately begins with the appearance of Mr. Woo who is distraught that the black pearls are missing from his Jade statues (the same statues that Anna planted on Holly to have her arrested). Robert arrives home one day to find Robin waiting in his living room. He quickly becomes very attached to her (they are so adorable together!). Anna has said her goodbyes and returns home to NY to find Philomenia tied up and that Robin has been kidnapped. She turns to Robert for help and is shocked to find Robin has been with him. As she hugs Robin, Robert starts to put together Robin’s age, her resemblance to Anna, and their obvious bond. He realizes that Robin is his daughter and Anna confirms it.

Robert, Anna & Robin #6 September 26 – October 31, 1985 – 8 hour original edit
Robin is continually threatened and we finally learn as she has a flashback that she found the pearls in the Jade Buddha’s and put them as eyes in her doll. Robin’s doll is stolen as a warning that they can get to Robin, though ironically Wu doesn’t realize that the pearls are in the doll’s eyes. Frisco goes undercover by taking the blame for a hit and run accident that kills Tai, Yang’s brother. Anna realizes Robin is in danger and takes her to the pizza place to hide. They are found by Wu’s men and stalked through the Asian Quarter. The Green Shirts save the day and come along at just the right time, and then Robert arrives to arrest Wu’s men. Jack Wagner does a great job playing Frisco on the edge, and is very believable in this undercover story. He is arrested for vehicular manslaughter when Tai dies, and jumps bail when he is released playing the man on the run. Yang is furious and goes after him, and Sean overhears and pulls him into hiding when Yang finds him and calls the police.
     Frisco is able to convince Sean he is on the run and he is told that in order to work for Mr. Wu that he will have to prove his loyalty by kidnapping Robin. They set up a fake kidnapping and Anna is able to intervene and rescue Robin. Felicia is taken hostage and questioned all night. She is released with the ultimatum that if the black pearls aren’t returned within 24 hours that Frisco will be killed! Robert gets fake pearls to give to Mr. Wu to buy Frisco time. Before he can leave to make the exchange, Anna knocks Robert out and takes his place. Olin and her grandson, Suki, help Frisco escape. Kim (Mr. Wu’s grandson) shoots Frisco but Sean jumps in front of him and is shot instead. Yang tells Robert that Frisco was shot point blank and he doesn’t believe he could have survived that bullet. So everyone is told that Frisco is dead! Felicia doesn’t believe it and goes looking for Frisco’s body. She finds Olin who tells her that Frisco is alive and takes her to him.
     Robert and Anna grieve over Frisco’s death and are immensely relieved when he shows up alive! Robert demands he turns Sean over to him but Frisco refuses saying Sean saved his life by taking a bullet meant for Frisco. Robert is determined to bring Sean in.
     I continued to include every Robert, Anna, and Robin scene. I also included pretty much every Sean scene, a lot of the Mr. Wu and his grandson Kim’s actions, as well as showing Olin and her grandson Suki helping Frisco, I also included most of Frisco’s scenes as he takes on a dangerous undercover assignment to help Robert protect Robin and find out who killed Josh. So this is not just R&A scenes but follows the Asian Quarter storyline. Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert, Anna & Robin #7 October 31 – November 25, 1985
This edit contains the actual location scenes shot in a Chinatown that was used as Port Charles Asian Quarter, this authenticity really added to this storyline. I continued to include every Robert scene, every Anna scene, and every Robin scene. Robin overhears Robert and Anna talking about being her parents, she is hurt when she hears Robert say he doesn’t want to tell her yet. Robin runs away and hides out at GH. Robert and Anna believe that Wu has kidnapped her and they are desperate to find her. Robin visits her sick friend and gets back her doll, Cindy. Robin stows away in the medical van and when it arrives in the Asian Quarter, she makes her getaway and runs into the Ancient One. She is soaking wet from the rain and he takes her inside to get dry. He quickly realizes she is a runaway and gives her shelter till he can figure out where her family is. He tells her the story of the black pearls and the Jade Buddha’s and Robin realizes the marbles she found are the black pearls that the Ancient One needs to save his people. She puts the pearls back into the Buddha’s to give the Ancient One his miracle. Kim learns where they are hiding out; he steals the Buddha’s and the doll. Ancient One and Robin run out into the street, Robin finds her doll thrown in the street and the Ancient One retrieves his Buddha’s from where Kim had stashed them when he was confronted by the Green Shirts. The Ancient One and Robin seek a new hide out, while there Robin shows him the pearls.
Sean and Frisco hide in the catacombs under the city and eavesdrop on Wu and Kim. They are able to get evidence of Wu’s master plan to use the cannery to can and sell cocaine. Wu catches on to their presence beneath him and an explosion causes a cave in. Sean was out following Kim and returns to find Suki and Frisco have been buried alive. He runs to Robert’s to get help. Frisco is rescued and reunited with his friends and family. Anna finally finds Robin walking on the docks with the Ancient One and they share a very happy reunion which is cut short when Wu’s men kidnap her and the Ancient One.

Robert, Anna & Robin #8 November 26, 1985 – January 11, 1986
This edit contains the conclusion of the Asian Quarter storyline, Thanksgiving, goes through Anna becoming police commissioner, and Robert’s departure and a very sweet farewell between R&A at the airport. About five hours into the edit, the Laurelton murder mystery begins when a dead body is found in the brownstone. Anna begins the investigation and all clues lead to a Laurelton conspiracy, when Bobbie disappears on a trip there, Anna goes searching for her. The last four hours is primarily edited to Anna as Robert is off the show, a little Frisco but he is busy in the police academy, and Sean is off having an affair with Monica!
The video quality on this is good throughout, audio is good except for between about 5-7 hours when there is a background buzzing. This existed on the master episodes. The dialogue is still audible, though have to admit when it first begins its annoying though fortunately it softens and then disappears. After awhile, I did find I got used to it and was still able to hear and enjoy it. Click here to read the full edit description.

Anna #9 January 9 – Feb 25, 1986 – 8 hour original edit
This edit continues with Anna’s storyline as she investigates the Laurelton murder mystery. If you plan on watching this, I suggest you not read through all of the descriptions so you don’t spoil the suspense of the storyline. Robert is out of town so he is not on this edit. Sean is not on this much as he is off having an affair with Monica! I included all of the Anna scenes, and additional scenes as needed to follow the storyline. Though I tried to keep the focus on Anna’s investigation, I did include additional Teri, Kevin, Patrick, Ted & Jennifer and Laurelton location scenes as needed to tell the story and in order to follow the investigation. If you are interested in the full storyline, I would recommend complete episodes. The Laurelton storyline continues on the Anna #10. Click here to read the full edit description.

Anna & Robin #10 February 26 - April 16, 1986 - 8 hours
The Laurelton storyline beings towards the end of the 1985 #8 and continues through the Anna & Robin #11. I continued to include every Anna scene and every Robin scene. This edit has more Robin on it than the #9 (which had very little Robin), as Anna tries to balance being a single mom and her career responsibilities.
Anna pressures Buzz to allow her to listen to the tape of Teri's therapy session and tensions arise between them as he refuses. Teri also wants to listen to it and steals it from Buzz's desk. Anna takes it back from Teri and takes the opportunity to listen to the tape, which incriminates Teri. She has listened to part of the tape as well and is beginning to have a meltdown. She takes a number of sleeping pills and tries to light the gas stove for a cup of tea but falls asleep as gas pours into her apartment. Frisco smells the gas and she is rushed to GH.
Jennifer gives Teri a glass of milk and brandy and in her sleep she tells Jennifer who the murderer is. The next day, Jennifer disappears and her body is later found. Anna continues to investigate until she gets enough evidence to arrest Kevin for Jennifer's murder. Kevin's trial begins and Jake makes quick work of witness after witness. The mousy librarian, Lucy Coe, arrives in town as the prosecutions mysterious star witness. Click here to read the full edit descriptions.

Anna & Robin #11 April 17 - June 3, 1986 - Laurelton Conclusion - 8 hours
This edit covers the conclusion of Laurelton storyline. I continued to include every Anna and ever Robin scene on this edit. The description below is primarily about Anna's storyline. While she is off chasing the bad guy, Robin is taken care of by Bobbie and Felicia. Often in a soap, the children are just forgotten but not with Robin. She continues to have her own storyline as she interacts with a variety of people in Port Charles while her mother is gone. Anna makes frequent phone calls home to talk to her daughter. I recommend that you not read any further for this description if you plan on watching these scenes as will ruin the mystery and the big finish to know what happens. The Laurelton storyline takes place on the Anna #8 (last half), the #9, 10, and #11 concludes it.
This edit continues with Kevin's trial and his acquittal for Jennifer's murder. Buzz is attacked and critically injured and Anna and Robin spend many hours at GH waiting with Buzz's friends for word on his condition. Jake stumbles upon a key hidden in Kevin's apartment that he realizes goes to Lucy's backdoor. He puts together Lucy's lies to get Kevin freed, and finds a page about Double Jeopardy hidden behind some wallpaper. Jake fills Frisco in on his suspicions. Buzz wakes up and is reunited with his relieved friends. Burt fills Anna in on Frisco and Jake's activities and she heads over to confront them. They immediately leave for Laurelton but just miss Kevin and Teri. Frisco figures out from information Lucy had that they went to Catalina Island and heads there.
This edit is full of gorgeous location shots in Catalina, the gang all go Scuba diving and there are several beautiful underwater sequences unlike anything on a daytime show. Frisco follows Kevin, Patrick, and Teri to the beach and when he sees them enter the water, he follows them. Frisco is attacked from behind and sent to the hospital in critical condition. Anna and Jake arrive on the island and continue to look for the O'Connors and for Frisco. They soon find that Frisco is in the hospital and rush to his side. They finally get a lead on the O'Connors whereabouts but when they arrive at the hotel, they learn that Teri attempted suicide and they have left the island. They are headed to a sanitarium on another island, and Jake and Anna follow them there. There is a big chase scene through another location shot, as they go through the hills, valleys, and meadows, ending in the death of a major character in this storyline and neatly wrapping up the storyline.

The mob is out to kill Duke in order to silence him, and Tony helps the gang to fake Duke's death. Duke then has to hide out in the catacombs. Frisco then boards Angus' yacht and wants to join the mob, and gives up Damon as a traitor to the mob who is turning state's evidence. As a test, Frisco is ordered to kill Damon. They also fake Frisco's hit on Damon and almost fool the mob, but the scam is up when the "Pilgrim" spots the bullet proof vest that Damon is wearing. He then orders a hit on Frisco which is almost successful, but Sean spots the ticking watch carrying the bomb just in time to save Frisco's life.
Bert is distracted by a retirement luncheon and the gang plot to keep him from meeting up with his cohorts who are arrested. Robert confronts Bert on the docks and arrests him as well. As gunmen take aim at Robert, Duke jumps in front of him, saving Robert's life as he takes the bullet. When Duke wakes up in the hospital, he can't feel his legs and looks like he might be paralyzed. There are a lot of outdoor, on location sequences, on an actual pier/dock area and on a yacht. This was a fun edit to do as the gang once again are all working together to defeat the bad guys and this edit contains the satisfying conclusion as Mr. Big and his organization is finally brought down. I continued to include every Robert, every Anna, every Duke, and every Robin scene on this edit, though there isn't a lot of Robin on during this time frame.

Robert & Anna #1 Feb 3 - March 18, 1991 - 8 hours
I have completed the new R&A Romance #1 edit from 1991. This is one of my all-time favorite edits. I started the edit with some flashback scenes from 1985 with Anna's arrival (the quality from the first 10 minutes is only okay but I thought it was good to show those few minutes to provide a bit of the history). The quality on the rest of the edit from 1991 is pretty good.
This edit begins with Robert taking Lucas away from Bobbie (his illegal adoptive mother) and giving the child back to Cheryl (his biological mother who thought he had died). This precipitates an argument between Robert and Anna and he calls her a nag and a frump. After a hostage situation at Wyndham's, Frisco helps rescue Robert and he gives Frisco his job back (Frisco had helped cover up Bobbie's misdeeds and Robert had fired him). Robin invites her parents to attend her Valentine's Day recital; Anna goes shopping for a new dress and winds up buying lingerie. Robert and Anna meet at the Port Charles hotel, and he is speechless when she enters with her hair cascading in curls, a tight red dress, and full make up. They share a magical evening, she plays footsie with him during the recital, they have dinner, a nightcap at his place, and then she uses his bad shoulder as an excuse to tie him up. The next day she winds up going around town trying to find someone to release him (she had thought he would be able to get out of her restraints), finally she tells Frisco and he let's him out. This is followed by the San Pedro Harbor location scenes, Jenny Eckert and the environmental protest, the ELQ Tracy explodes, and Robert fishes Mac out of the water. Anna is shocked to learn he is Mac's brother. Mac is later arrested for assaulting a police officer and gets community service. Bill Eckert is introduced as a shocked Bobbie initially thinks it is Luke. Mac skips town and Robert is forced to track him to Lake Placid and bring him back to Port Charles. Anna arrives in lake Placid and they all share a train ride together. The romance continues as Robert arranges for a romantic dinner for Anna.

Robert & Anna #2 March 18th - May 1st, 1991
This edit really has it all from romance, to action, heartbreak and humor. Robert gives Anna a key to his apartment. Robert is getting ready for his big evening with Anna, and a bomb is thrown through his office window. He is sent flying, knocked unconscious and is in critical condition. Anna is a basket case as Robert fights for his life. Robin goes to the PCPD and accuses Mac of trying to kill her father. Anna sees Mac trying to sneak into Robert's room, she tackles him, ties his arms behind his back and searches him and finds a knife. She is in a rage thinking he came there to kill Robert. Robert finally wakes up and he asks Sean to bring him the puzzle box he has in his office. He becomes extremely upset when the evidence he has compiled against Mac's mercenary activities is gone and goes into cardiac arrest! He is revived he is very sheltered and protected from then on and it drives him crazy. He fights with the nurses and some funny scenes when he has Guy smuggle in a cell phone and he has to talk under the covers to hide it. He is busted and Nurse Strickland takes the phone away from him. He is so argumentative with the staff that they complain enough that the hospital agrees to send him home with Anna as his nurse and bodyguard. Frisco is working hard investigating on Robert's behalf and Robert rewards him with a gold shield and a return to his dectitive status. Robert gets mad when Sean helps investigate for Scotty, Sean is intent on looking at all angles as he isn't sure Mac is responsible. Anna is taken hostage in a bank robbery and Frisco rescues her. Big earthquake and Felicia is paralyzed, Mac escapes from jail and hides out in the condemmed brownstone. I included every Anna, every Robert, and every Robin scene during this time frame. There is also quite a bit of Mac though I didn't include all of his jail scenes as they weren't advancing the storyline. Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert & Anna #3 May 2nd– 30th, 1991 – 8 hours
I continued to include every Robert scene, every Anna scene, and every Robin scene. Robert invites Anna to move in with him, Anna later finds Mac in her bed when she returns home. Finian helps Mac escape once again and takes him to hide out in the Eckert’s basement. Anna winds up in a gunfight down on the docks and is shot in the shoulder; her face is scratched resulting in a bandage reminding Robert of her scar. They track Mac to an outbound freighter and when Robert spots him, he insists on confronting Mac by himself, they fight and Mac gets knocked overboard. He disappears into the water below leaving everyone to wonder if he was knocked unconscious and drowned.
A search does not turn up a body but Robert believes he is responsible for killing Mac. Mac though has swum up under the pier and is quite sick for a while as he almost drowned trying to find the entrance to the tunnel where he hides out. Finian then sends him up to Finger Lakes, Robert gets a clue from following Finian that perhaps Mac isn’t dead and a setup sends Robert up to Finger Lakes as well. Robert and Mac come face-to-face, guns drawn and Mac fires and Robert is shot! However it isn’t by Mac but by Rory, a paid assassin who is killed. Mac and Robert are arrested in Finger Lakes and back in Port Charles faked evidence is released linking Mac and Robert to criminal activity. Mac and Robert escape prison, and then when a couple of Paul’s’ goons track them down they take off on foot into the woods. Anna has tracked them to Finger Lake’s.
At about 20 minutes into the edit there is a line that appears in the middle of the screen and lasts for about 2 ½ hours or so. Unfortunately the problem existed on my episodes for May 3-11. I borrowed a tape from another friend who had even more quality problems on her tape of those episodes so since I felt it was still watchable just not quite as good as all of the scenes on the #1 and #2 and on the rest of the #3. The rest of the quality is pretty good. Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert & Anna #4 May 30–July ?, 1991 - The Wedding! - 8 hour original edit
This edit covers one of my favorite time frames, the wedding of Robert and Anna. It begins as Robert and Mac are on the run in the woods, they come across Dominique’s estate “Serenity” and hide out there. They call Sean and warn him that Paul Hornsby is involved in the ELQ sabotage. Robert and Mac return to Port Charles and stand trial and are exonerated. Robert proposes to Anna and the wedding preparations and festivities begin, with her bridal shower, and the rehearsal dinner. Faison has returned to town and leaves red orchids everywhere for Anna to find as a message from him.
There is lots of wedding drama as first Faison comes in and grabs Anna and a suddenly psychic Robert rescues her sensing she is in danger, then Dominique freaks out and pulls a gun at the wedding though Mac talks her down from whatever brainwashing has occurred, finally the wedding takes place. They then enjoy a lovely reception as the town congratulates our happy couple. Robert and Anna depart aboard a train for their honeymoon though between the rocking motion of the train and the confined space in the upper berth they don’t have much romance. They finally check into a beautiful hotel and the honeymoon really begins!
I continued to include every Robert, every Anna, and every Robin scene. There is quite a bit of Mac as he is involved with Robert on the run however I did not include all of the separate Dom and Mac scenes. I did include all of the wedding and reception scenes.

Robert & Anna #5 July 5-August 30, 1991 - 8 hours
I continued to include every Robert, Anna, and Robin scene on this edit. I included some of Tiffany’s illness (that Faison caused and Sean’s growing desperation to find a cure for her. This edit also includes the remainder of Robert and Anna’s honeymoon. The Q’s give Robert a letter from Edward indicating if he is dead that he was murdered by the cartel (Taub, Faison, and Barrington), the opening of the Outback is included, Anna helps Mac hide out from Taub, he finds her and takes her back. Faison brainwashes Robert into thinking he saw Anna in bed with Faison, Sean figures out what Faison has done and is able to get through to Robert. Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert & Anna #6 August 26 - October 28, 1991 - 8 hours
This edit continues with Faison's brainwashing scheme. Tom is able to deprogram Robert from having visions of Anna in bed with Faison. They discover that Faison has hypnotized Anna into planting a bug on Robert's office phone. She then goes to Tom to be deprogrammed as well. They turn the tables on Faison, allowing him to believe he is still hypnotizing Anna. They lead Faison to believe that Tony's research project has been halted, while Robert has arranged for Tony to work in a secret lab. Tony reports he believes he has found the cure to Tiffany's mysterious illness. Nancy Eckert is murdered and Robert begins investigating, questioning Bill, Julia, and Lucy. Witnesses come forward incriminating Bill at exactly the same time the cartel wants him out of the way. Paul is blackmailed into marrying Tracy Quartermaine. Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert & Anna #7 October 28 – December 3, 1991 – 8 hours
This edit continues with the Nancy Eckert murder mystery as Robert continues to investigate. The murder mystery is fortunately wrapped up during a big reveal one night as Robert gathers all of the suspects at the lighthouse, all set very creepily at night during a thunderstorm. The killer reveals himself when it looks like Robert is going to arrest Bill. Finally, they move back to the cartel storyline. (It was odd how in the middle of the cartel storyline they put that one on hold to do the murder mystery, and then went back to the cartel story. Anna wasn’t involved in the murder mystery so could be that was thrown in when Finola wasn’t available? Perhaps she was off taping Blossom?). Anna becomes more involved towards the end of the #7A dvd, Bill becomes involved working with Robert & Anna and has some great scenes with them. Finola and Tony finally get a chance to work together all too briefly before she leaves the show.
     So most of the first dvd is about Robert investigating the murder mystery, not much Anna (though the scenes between her and Bill are classic), and Robin was hardly seen at all. The pace picks up again as they get back into the cartel storyline towards the end of the #7A dvd as Bill begins working with Robert, Anna, Mac, and Sean in their battle to bring down the cartel and stay one step ahead of their devious plot to kill numerous people at the Outback, PCPD, and at GH during the Founder’s Day celebration. They have the evil deed videotaped and broadcast in their secret room in order to help them peddle their poison to terrorists. Finally Tony and Tristan are together again romping through scenes one last time!
     Anna discovers information that leads her to believe that Edward didn’t die in a car crash and she heads to the West Indies to find him. Robert goes undercover as one of the terrorists. Anna figures out how the cartel plans on deploying the poison and foils their plot (with Mac’s help). Faison and Taub are arrested and taken to jail.
     The Scorpio family shares a brief respite from adventure and settles into family life. Robin begins dating Roger and this makes Robert nuts! All too soon their family bliss is interrupted when Faison escapes and begins sending Anna messages telling her he is coming for her.
     This edit concludes Finola’s appearance as “Anna” on GH during 1991 and will be not be on the Robert & Anna 1991 #8 edit as she was fired and replaced by Camilla Moore. Robert continues on the show until Feb, 1992.
     Quality Notes: This edit is not as good in quality overall as the previous 1991 #1-6 dvds. The episodes I used for this edit came from a different source and overall they were not quite as sharp as the previous episodes from Jan-Oct, 1991 but still very watchable. On the #7A, there is about ½ hour that there is a bit of tracking on the bottom of the screen (around the murder mystery reveal). On the #7B dvd, there is reduced sound in section titled 11/20-11/25, it is muffled and lasts for about an hour. The last half hour of the #7B is only so-so quality and the scenes during this time frame have a slight jump to it. I am looking into getting better quality episodes for each of these time frames and will hopefully be able to re-edit those problem spots. So I don’t recommend ordering this edit at this time, you might want to wait a couple of months to see if I can get better quality episodes and then re-edit a couple of sections on this. I’m only releasing this for the die-hards who don’t want to wait, to see if can improve on the quality in the couple of problem areas and for everyone who enjoys reading the write ups and wants to read the conclusion to the Finola time frame.

Robert & Anna #8 December 4, 1991 - February 6, 1992 - 8 hours
This edit covers Finola's final scenes as Anna, some great scenes as the Scorpios enjoy some family time, getting their tree and having a holiday family dinner together with Mac. She leaves the show abruptly about 1 hour into this edit on the #8A dvd. Camilla Moore immediately takes over the role of Anna and she plays the Christmas and New Year's Eve episodes with Robert and Robin. Faison kidnaps her at the end of the #8A dvd which concludes Anna's final scenes on GH until 1995.
Holly arrives on the beginning of the #8B dvd at Mac's birthday party that Dom throws for him in NY. Robert learns Holly is alive and meets with her. Robert, Mac, and Sean all desperately search for Anna on the #8B. Robert is worried that Faison will also take Robin and she is placed at Sean's penthouse under heavy guard. Holly is working a scam to steal a stamp belonging to Dom's late husband (Leopold Taub) to sell for $5 million. She wants out once she finds out Dom's connection to Mac, who she learns is Robert's brother. Her family puts a lot of pressure on her to continue. When she finally meets with the buyer to tell him she wants out, we learn the buyer is Faison (unbeknownst to Holly). Click here to read the full edit description.

Robert, Anna and Robin 1992 #9 - 12 hours
The Robert & Anna 1992 #9 are three separate dvds. Note, there is NO Anna scenes on the #9A and #9B. The Robert #9A & #9B concludes Robert's scenes through his departure as he leaves to search for Anna. This edit includes all of Robert's scenes, all of Holly's scenes, and all of Robin's scenes during this time frame. Robin learns that Holly is alive. Also included are the attempts that Faison makes to kidnap Robin, first in the elevator which Holly foils, and then at the cannery. After Robert leaves on the #9B, I continued to include Mac & Sean's scenes as they search for Anna and all of Holly's scenes, and all of Robin's scenes including those with Mac & Holly as they care for her in the wake of her parent's absence. They find out that R&A have been marked for elimination by the WSB and Mac learns that Anna was a double agent and is furious that Sean hadn't told him. The last scenes on this dvd are of everyone finding out that R&A have been killed.
The #9C includes more of the aftermath of the news of Robert and Anna's death, Mac's refusal to believe it, R&A's memorial, their return in 1995 as ghosts, then some 1999 scenes as R&A are suddenly remember on the 7th anniversary of their deaths (to coincide with Faison's arrival back in PC) and Felicia & Mac confronting him over R&A's deaths. I then finished this third dvd with Robin & Anna's later reunion on AMC, and then Mac & Anna's reunion also on AMC. Click here to read the full edit description.
