I'm working on some fic in which, among other things, I'm trying to fix the Ethan's-paternity debacle, and I need some help with the timeline. When Robert came back to Port Charles at the beginning of June 1987, did he say how long it had been since the plane crash that Holly had supposedly perished in? Anybody know? I'm trying to make stuff make sense, but it's impossible because the GH timeline is so effed up! Ethan's birthday is supposedly September 22, 1987, which actually is perfect timing for him to be a Scorpio coma baby because Robert returned to Australia from Port Charles in January of that year, so Ethan should've been a Welcome Home present from that R&H reunion. BUT...that also means Robert should've known Holly was pregnant before he went back to PC again in June 1987---she would've been 5 or 6 months along! So do we know when she got in the car/plane accident that comatized her? Was it much earlier than June '87? I don't know much of anything about that bad luck Ethan but I do know that Robin spoke to her dad and Holly on the phone. I think it was in March or Maybe April (87) I think it was around the time that Anna and Duke broke up over Duke's past because Robin was really upset over it. So, R/H were a least together during that time. Here's the clip and it was around the time that Anna and Duke had broken up.. This was March 11...

when Robert let Autumn down easy- it was just around New Years and he said it had been 8 months since Holly's funeral. Which makes it April. But for whatever reason- I always thought it was May. He returns to PC in May, doesn't he? I always assumed she'd just died...

It makes sense that he would have to deal with a funeral and not want to stick around in their home alone

You may be on the right track there,however, there was never any date mentioned regarding her coma. I'm working on a fan fic too. How did you find Ethan's date of birth? Now I need to do a re-write Stinkin GH, wish they would get the real story right!! I saw the birthday on a GH wiki general-hospital.wikia.com/wiki/Ethan_Lovett_(Nathan_Parsons) . That doen't necessarily mean it's accurate, of course.

And I assumed it was right after Holly died, too, but that doesn't work with my current fic idea, so I was hoping for a loophole. Maybe I'll also end up doing a rewrite.... Ugh, this fic is not coming easy. Thanks for nothin', Guza and Carlivati.

Just watched GMRC2's clip og Holly returns part 5, and during this clip Robert tells Holly how he received a letter she had written before she left Australia and "died" in that plane crash, 6 months after she died.

He got the letter in October, so, it would still put her death in April ...

Was wondering if anyone had an idea of how long Holly knew about Paloma? Was it ever mentioned that she knew about her as a kid or didn't find out till they were grown? Why weren't they raised together? And would anyone happen to have those clips that could maybe do a screen cap of Emma with the red wig I've read about? Wish I had watched it but the thought of seeing her with that loser Luke-a-like cousin was more than I could handle. I only watched up to when she started seeing that jerk and then I stopped till 2006 and was disappointed yet again so didn't watch that crap either. Have watched those scenes on youtube though I wish I hadn't. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. From what I remember it was similar to Parent Trap ,in that, Holly and Paloma accidentally met at boarding school when she was there as a teenager. I don't know if they were supposed to be twins or just sisters. They were never raised together and Holly never told her father about it. I kind blocked a bit of that story out, as Emma and that wig and Paloma's stick up her ass personality, were a bit hard to swallow.

They didn't have the same father. They were identical HALF-sisters (lol). Holly's mother--whom we'd always been led to believe had died when Holly was a child--was re-written to have run off with a South American lover when Holly was a baby. Paloma was their child. And, yes, Holly did meet her in boarding school. I never liked the Paloma storyline. But I would totally accept the fanfic idea often bandied about that it's Paloma we have seen since 2006. I'd even accept her as Ethan's mother if he stays a Spencer. It would explain a lot.

I remember the storyline as being ridiculous! Holly and Paloma did indeed meet in boarding school. The writers and GM justified Holly and Paloma's striking resemblance by using a photo of Emma Samms' real mother who Emma did/does bare a remarkable likeness to!

So, if Holly "died" in April, then Guza-Robin's math is even worse than I thought. Robert didn't arrive in PC for Mr. Big until mid-September. So, even if Holly fled to Singapore the second he left, Ethan would have still been either 2 months premature OR a coma baby.

Im kinda over the whole Ethan being the coma baby. What about this new girl Sabrina being the coma baby I kinda like this character and I can really see that her and patrick could be real good together and then Robin returns finds that Patrick has fallen for somebody else and then she finds out this girl is her half sister. Sounds good to me!!!!!

I think Sabrina is related to Anna (and possibly Duke) somehow. I don't think she's Robert & Anna's kid though. I honestly don't think she's Robert and Holly's kid.

OK, I don't want to watch it, so I need everyone's help. Who was that Aboribrigony friend of Robert's who was at Robert and Anna's wedding?
