I
decided to create a separate series for Jason Morgan’s early storyline. I have
created the Robin & Jason series that includes all of his scenes with Robin,
Sonny (but not his affair and friendship with Carly), and I had created a Carly
& Jason series with all of his scenes with her (but not the separate R&J
storyline). So basically by popular demand I chopped Jason’s storyline in two
from 1996-1999. I had found that the first couple of Jason & Carly edits had
become worn and needed to be redone and since a good part of Jason and Carly’s
storyline is very separate in 1996 and 1997, I decided to create two separate
series.
So
I have begun an Early Carly series, which contains every Carly scene, includes
her entire storyline with Jason, Tony, Bobbie, and AJ. You can view those write
ups at here.
I
then began this “Just Jason” series. This series will focus solely on the
character of Jason. It will include EVERY Jason scene, all of his scenes with
Robin, with Carly, with Sonny, and with the Quartermaines.
Just Jason #1
November 30, 1995 - May 28, 1996 – 8 hours
I began the first edit in this series, just before the accident in the aftermath
of Stone’s death, and very poignant happy Christmas scenes at the Q’s as
Jason and AJ play with the train under the Christmas tree (Jason wearing one of
the annual Christmas sweaters that Steve has joked about). I included the big
fight, AJ being plastered and driving off, Jason jumping in the car to try to
stop his brother, the accident, Jason’s coma, Ned covers up the accident and
says he was driving. Jason wakes up but he is no longer Jason Quartermaine.
Jason begins having outbursts of anger; he rapidly becomes tired of most of the
Q’s and their expectations and protestations of love for him. They are
strangers to him.
He
is released from the hospital and goes home and becomes increasingly unhappy,
violent, and destructive. He breaks Monica’s heart when he tears up his room,
destroying all she has left of Jason’s former life. He buys a motorcycle and
rides it through the Q living room, and eventually leaves to go leave in the
boxcar. He meets Robin on the bridge and they become friends, he meets Carly at
Jake’s and they begin an affair, he meets Sonny and they become friends. Jason
goes to work for Luke as a valet then quits after an altercation with Edward,
then works on the docks and quits after Monica shows up. Jason witnesses one of
Sonny’s couriers being ambushed and shot, he picks up a large bag of money and
on Robin’s advice takes it to Sonny. Sonny is very appreciative of Jason
returning his money, and offers him a job. Jason tries to warn him about the
trouble the Q’s will cause, Sonny informs him that, “The Quartermaine’s
have no power in my world.” That is all Jason needs to know and he becomes
Sonny’s runner.

Just Jason #2
May 28 - September 12, 1996 - 8 hr original edit
This edit covers a lot of Jason's early storyline with Sonny and the development
of their relationship, which begins with the explosion that kills Lily and
Sonny's baby. Robin asks Jason to stick by Sonny no matter what and he agrees.
Jason uses Robin's key to get into the penthouse and then refuses to leave as he
sits quietly by. He goes with Sonny to Puerto Rico when he confronts Rivera over
murdering his own daughter. Also included is Jason's continuing affair with
Carly, Nurse's Ball scenes, Jason carries Robin off the stage.
In
order to protect Sonny, Jason sells him his ELQ shares so that Sonny will have a
legitimate business interest. Jason and Sonny show up at an ELQ board-meeting
ready to vote! Edward is trying to get Ned tossed out as CEO, and Tracy arrives
in time to use her vote to save her son's job (great series of scenes). Jason
and Robin spend the night at the boathouse, and then decide to take off for
Montauk Point to spend time along together before she leaves for Yale. Jason
gets attacked when he makes an unscheduled drop and they don't recognize him as
the guy scheduled (Sonny later explains this is standard procedure). Jason is
put in the hospital, and Robin is arrested by the local police and interrogated.
Back at GH, Alan gives Robin the good news that with the new drug treatment that
she has a chance of living a long life. Robin says goodbye to all of her friends
at her goodbye party and her and Jason spend one last night together.
I continued to include all of Jason's scenes during this time frame. I also
included Robin's scenes with Sonny, with Carly, and as needed to follow Jason's
storyline, and with Carly. I did not include Carly's separate storyline as I did
all of her scenes from her arrival on the Early Carly series and her storyline
during 1996 is fairly separate from Jason's other than their affair. This edit
is mostly about Jason's relationship with Robin, and his developing relationship
with Sonny. This edit does include all of Jason's scenes with Carly which aren't
included on the Jason & Robin #4. I recommend the Just Jason #1 and #2
instead of the R&J #1-4 for anyone who would like Jason's entire storyline,
including his affair with Carly. The R&J edits do not include his affair
with Carly. Click here to read the full
edit description. Just Jason #3
September 12, 1996 - March 17, 1997 - 8 hrs
This
edit continues with Jason's storyline and covers just as Robin leaves for
college. I recommend this edit for R&J fans who would like all of Jason's
scenes while Robin is away at college (this falls after the Robin & Jason
#4). Contained is more of Jason's early relationship with Sonny as most of
Jason's scenes during this time frame are with Sonny. He has a few early
friendship scenes with Carly, and scenes with Robin during her brief returns but
mostly this is a Sonny & Jason edit <grin>. I included some classic
Thanksgiving dream scenes, and Christmas scenes when Sonny takes over sales at
the tree lot, New Year's Eve, Jason's short lived friendship with Gina (Stone's
sister), and the big stories are Sonny getting shot up with heroin as Jason gets
very protective over him and then Harry kidnapping Sonny & Brenda and
blowing up the cave and trapping them. Jason leads the rescue. Click here to read the
full
edit description.
Just Jason #4 March 18
- July 2, 1997 - 8 hours
This edit continues to be
focused on Jason's storyline and contains every Jason scene during this time
frame. It includes all of his scenes with Robin during her returns including her
surprise date on the boat, all of his scenes with Carly, Sonny, and is centered
around the Dr. Dorman storyline. Jason suspects Dorman of being involved in the
influx of drugs into Port Charles, he searches his apartment, follows him to
gain evidence against him and to just torment him as he has tormented the Q's.
Emily begins smoking heroin and tries to fly off the roof. Ned and Jax rescue
her, Jason arrives in time to perform CPR and she is taken to the hospital. The
only doctor on duty is Dr. Dorman and Jason stands watch as he treats her.
Dorman
has released to the news media that AJ was driving drunk the night of Jason's
accident (he got Matt to give him a copy of Emily's diary). AJ goes on a bender
at Jake's, Carly enters fresh from a fight with Tony and they sleep together. I
included the AJ and Carly scenes during this time frame as it becomes so crucial
to Jason's storyline later after Michael is born. I also included a concert at
Luke's, as Jason, Sonny, and Luke were all involved in passing out flyers and
promoting the event. The 4th Nurse's Ball is included, with Jason
"meeting" his old girlfriend Karen, Robin returns briefly, and of
course several of the performances. Monica kidnaps and drugs Dorman and
threatens to kill him. I put in this series of scenes, they were quite well
done. Jason arrives just when it seems like Monica might actually kill Dorman.
Emily has a breakdown when she learns that Dorman read her diary and used it to
hurt her family and she is brought into GH. Jason has had it with Dorman hurting
people, and Emily is the last straw. Dorman is found dead in the GH morgue, and
this was an interesting episode with everyone running around GH so there were
lots of suspects available. Carly finds Jason with the body and offers to do
anything to help him. He has her call the police and is once again taken in for
questioning. At the PCPD, she is surprised by AJ being there and asking
questions. He figures out that she doesn't know that he is Jason's brother and
blows her mind with this bit of information.
I did not include all of Carly's separate storyline with Tony, Bobbie, Luke as
most of her scenes do not involve Jason or his storyline and their storylines
are fairly separate during 1996-1997. Cary sleeping with AJ and the aftermath of
that action and all of Carly trying to hide it from AJ, trying to keep him from
remembering is on the Early Carly #3 which will follow her storyline during this
time frame. Any of the friendship scenes between them will be on both the Just
Jason series and the Early Carly series. Click here to read the full
edit description.
Just Jason
#5 July 3 - October 2, 1997 - 8 hours This
edit continues to follow Jason's storyline and includes him being shot in
Robin's living room, they break up and she goes to Paris. Jason helps
Sonny plan to leave town with Brenda. When her life is threathened, Sonny
leaves town without Brenda and asks Jason to break it to her and Jason
shows up at the church instead of Sonny. Click here to read the full
edit description.
Just
Jason #6 October 3, 1997 - January 13, 1998 - 8 hour original edit
This edit continues with the aftermath of Sonny's departure as Jason takes
over the business and tries to watch over Brenda (without her knowing it).
Robin reappears with a nice fantasy sequence about her and Jason, this is
followed by very funny Thanksgiving scenes as the Q's are being robbed
until Jason arrives and saves the day. Nik is shot in a drive by at Luke's
Club and Jason saves his life, Brenda has a nervous breakdown during a
photo shoot. This edit contains all of Robin's scenes from her return and
I began including all of Carly's scenes as she discovers Tony plans on
suing for sole custody of her baby, she has it out with him and tells him
that Jason is the father of her baby, not Tony. She then shows up at
Jason's house, seeking refuge and asking for his help. Carly goes into
labor and everyone gathers at GH, waiting to see if mother and child will
be okay. Tony finds out the baby's blood type eliminates him as the father
and AJ mistakenly believes Jason is the father. The Quatermaines all learn
that Jason is the father of Carly's baby and begin celebrating the new Q
heir. Jax brings Robin home to help Brenda during her recovery. Carly,
suffering post partum depression suddenly leaves town. Bobbie bonds with
the baby while Luke debates whether to tell her she is the baby's
grandmother. Jason takes the baby home to his penthouse as Tony insists
social services looks into his fitness as a parent. Click here to read the
full
edit description.
Just
Jason #7 (Jason/Carly/Robin) January 13 - February 23, 1998 - 8 hour
original edit
This edit includes Michael's baptism, Jason has asked Bobbie & Mike to
be the baby's god parents, Carly's return to town, the snowstorm and Carly
races to the PC Grill to finally hold her son. She confesses to Bobbie
that she is her long lost daughter, Caroline, Bobbie does not believe her
until Carly's adoptive mother, Virginia Benson, arrives and cries,
"Caroline!". Virgina has a stroke during the confrontation and
dies.
I continued to of course include all of Jason's
scenes, and since Carly is now living with him and he is raising her son,
all of her scenes are about/involve Jason's storyline and are now also
included. I also included all of Robin's scenes from her 1998 return. So
the Just Jason series in 1998 is more of a complete storyline with all of
Jason, all of Carly, all of Robin now included as their storylines
intertwine. Click here to read the full
edit description.
Just Jason
#8 February 23 - April 17, 1998 - 8 hour original edit
This edit
contains the complete storyline for Michael's kidnapping, including Tony's
machinations, Carly's grief and fear over her missing son, Jason's
desperate search for the baby, and all the hostage scenes with Robin and
Michael till Jason rescues them both. I included all of Carly's scenes and
all of Jason's scenes during this time frame. There isn't much Robin on
the #8A as most of her scenes during that time are with Nikolas and those
are contained on the Nik & Robin edit. I began including all of
Robin's scenes from the time she realizes Tony has Michael, confronting
him and getting kidnapped herself, through her captivity, rescue and
recovery in the hospital as she is reunited with her relieved friends and
family. Tony's trial begins and the courtroom is shocked when first
Felicia and then Robin testifies in support of Tony. Great storyline! Click here to read the
full
edit description.
