Spencer wants the benefits and responsibilities of being Ace’s father without actually claiming Esme as his girlfriend. It don’t work like that bro. Ain’t no half steppin’. You either wanna be with Trina or you don’t. The way he’s putting her through all this is really f’ed up.
And he's exaggerating a ton...he sees the movement as taking Ace away, he created this fantasy, and salty because it is manifesting unlike how he hoped. This was never a lasting solution. Unrealistic utopia. @@goodmusiq3539
Sometimes when we’re up set , we can take it out on others unintentionally, in this case I think that’s what he did but, he definitely needs to apologize to her, the writers need to apologize for only showing Sprina once this week, yet Anna everyday! I appreciate the brake from Carly today too, please have Dex and Joss mind their business although I think something is up with Dex speaking up on Spencer’s behalf, maybe they’ll actually be friends or something, it doesn’t seem like he has friends, He probably misses Cam too.
@@katrinabryant9873 Trina is not acting like his mother. She is stating her opinion on the matter. The fact is Spencer is not the father he needs to step back.😅
I love that Trina's voice wasn't muted, and she wasn't written in these scenes as weak or willing to back down. She told the truth, stood her ground and then made it her business to not beg or plead for this man after he came out of his mouth crazy.
@@marshagreen9759 Correct 💯 Summers is Buffy's last name. Caresha is a name Sprina fandom came up with. It's her street name, or as Taby said to NAC at one of their fan meet and greets "it's their ghetto names" 😂🤣
Love that Trina had the guts to stand up for herself. On another note, Tabyana should definitely go for the role of princess tiana if it ever opens up.
"Esme doesn't have to share custody! You're Ace's brother, not his father!" Thank you Trina for saying what everyone has known for months. Spencer's possessiveness with Ace is ridiculous.
Amen it really is. The way that he acting about Ace is ridiculous. What will he do when he finds out. Ace is not related to him after all. They got Spencer way to obsessed with Ace. It's really a shame.
One good thing about Spencer has always been the way he speaks to Trina , because his voice always takes on a gentle tone, but today he was yelling at Trina like he was having a conversation with Nicholas. Verbal abuse is never acceptable.. Trina was right for walking out today 👍. Spencer owed Trina apology, because she was right. Spencer is the brother of Ace not his father. Kudos to Trina/Tabyana in today's episode👍💪.
I noticed that too. Spencer always used to get loud-mouthed with Laura, Victor, Esme, Nicholas and whoever else got in his way but today was the first time he let loose on Trina. And I’m glad she’s seeing it for what it is. Imagine losing your man to a woman who framed you for revenge p#rn and drugged you. You finally give him a chance after being heavily pursued for over a year and the whole time he constantly throws it in your face that Ace (and by extension Esme) will ALWAYS be top priority. Then has the nerve to gaslight you into thinking this is acceptable behavior. Trina needs to date around. I’m tired of him putting her through all this unnecessary TRAUMA. The only way he can be a father to Ace is if he gets back with Esme. Release him back to the streets.
@goodmusiq3539 lmao, not release him back to the streets 😂. But, I wholeheartedly concur. This man has officially lost his damn mind. There is a form of gaslighting going on with him in regards to how he treats Trina. Anytime Trina tries to bring up his messed up living arrangement, he always manages to bring up his childhood as a way to almost mute her valid feelings regarding him living with his ex. I want to get back to rooting for Sprina, but I'm about over it. I'm so glad Trina walked away. He has a lot of making up to do for the shit he said to her.
Man, wtf?? Who this fool thinks he’s talking to like that?? It’s bad enough Trina has to endure Spencer living with Esme, now he is yelling at her? Not only Spencer needs therapy for his abandonment issues but he also needs it for anger management.
This writing is WHACK. I'm disappointed in Spencer's behavior today and the writing is on the wall. Spencer is headed for a humpty dumpty fall. I'm now truly convinced that Ace isn't a Cassadine after today. He threatened to chose Ace over Trina and she walked right out and made the decision for him. When the truth comes out all the people that propped up Esme will feel stupid including Spencer. Trina he can't just apologize his way out of this. Spencer needs therapy to deal with his various trauma.
He's also dealing with CPTSD which is why you saw what we all saw today. Which is also why Dex stepped in the way he did. It's also why he hid what really went down at the gym months ago. I also think this has to do with what happened in Greenland. Go back and watch the conversation with Curtis and Laura on the way back. She talked about how the trauma of what happened to Trina and Spencer will pop up at some point, and some of us spoke about it, and I think we're seeing it.
@blackbutterfly3364 You're right 🎯. My boy Spencer had an episode today, and I know he's going to regret what he did today big time. I'm surprised that no one has suggested therapy for Spencer. I'm glad Trina will talk to Ava.
@@flacagonzales Well, Laura's officially on crack, she backs a sociopathic predator, she didn't bother to have Spencer checked out after the explosion Greenland. Let's face it, Spencer's family is whack. This is the hurdle/storm that was mentioned months ago, and here we are. Let Spencer hit bottom so he can heal. Dex was pivotal here because of his time in the military so he can pick up on what looks to be CPTSD. Which is why his tone diffused the situation.
@@blackbutterfly3364 I am glad you explained about Dex, I forgot he was in the military, and he picked up on what was happening to Spencer. I think Spencer thinks everyone is against him, including Trina. Nicholas needs to bring his butt back to Ace & Spencer. Spencer needs his father's love; he may have lost Trina's.
@@creating1_c1999 Trina was a Super Fly Girl in that outfit and she had so much class in letting Spencer know that she chooses herself. She walked on by him (big song in the 70s).
A Burt classic. RIP Burt Bacharach. Another classic, "Alfie" is what he needs to listen to and let him sort this mess out. I'm tired of watching her be sad. She deserves better. This is not better, but harder. The writers need to give her some relief. At this point I don't care if they kill Esme and burn her clothes. Get gone! @@marshagreen9759
Spencer is projecting his abandonment issues onto Ace and it's unhealthy. He's not his father. And when people talk to him, he puts words into their mouths
Most soap opera couples who are super couples break up and get back together eventually. Spencer will hit rock bottom and find out that Ace isn't a Cassadine and then realize that he's been played again by Esme. I do think that Spencer will eventually want Trina back and have to work harder than he did before to get her back, but he will eventually.
Saw this coming too! Trina is too mature for him. The writers are being very realistic with how a woman would handle his selfish , out of pocket behavior. Grow up Spencer or lose the woman you claim to love.
Trina deserves better than what Spencer is willing to offer her. Good on her for walking away. If Spencer wants her, he's gonna have to put in the work to deserve her.
A couple of things, Trina should have instantly told Spencer to lower his voice because NO. The writing of Spencer is so inconsistent. He's all over the place lately. I don't know how we go from Spencer wanting to be there for his little brother to wanting shared custody?? I am a Sprina STAN but, I need Trina to take a break from him at this point. He can't keep treating her like second best and get away with it.
I think he’s triggered. Or that’s what the writing was trying to show us. As soon as he came back form NYC he learns his dad has abandoned him AGAIN. So he’s clinging to the only “family” he has left (even though he’s related to over half of PC 🤦♀️)
I couldn't agree more with all of the comments. We all know that Esme did this on purpose to drive a wedge between Spencer and Trina. Spencer is so stupid! The writer's of GH are stupid! Where is the DNA Test? Where is Nicholas and when is he gonna show up? Or is this how the writer's wanted to do this storyline in the first place? The Wam Bam Thank You Ma'am Storylines of Interracial Couples? What is this? Spencer and Trina were so happy. If Joss and Dex can be happy, going at it like sex crazed animals then why can't an Interracial Couple have that same right? As a matter of fact, Spencer & Trina's love scenes compared to everybody else was totally choreographed quite different. Did anybody else notice or was it just me? GH is even going down that rabbit hole of Kristina and Blaze as a situation. There is something not right with Blaze though. Can't put my finger on it, yet. I just pray that "Linc", is not still pulling strings from in behind Scenes. I'm tired of these types of storylines and with as much as Esme Prince has done, her ass should have been in prison. Lots of women end up in jail when they have done crimes and it didn't matter. Yeah I know it's a soap opera. Just saying!
@@vjones4769 Agreed. What a stupid storyline! Spencer and Trina should be happy! The writer's of GH give Viewers what they wanted sort of. Then they bring this couple back for this mess by throwing that criminal with all her sneakiness back in our face. Esme hasn't changed and eventually all of Ms. Prince, old self is gonna show up!
@@maryfranceswilliams782 I do notice that a lot of soap operas dangle interracial couples especially bwwm in front of our faces to shake things up for ratings but it’s never with the intention of longevity. I’m hoping this time around in 2023 that is not the case. And yes Sprina’s love scenes were choreographed with the help of an intimacy coordinator. I’d argue that Sprina is considered a supercouple and they are endgame so maybe that’s why they got an extra special NYC trip.
@tessjosephh, thanks for saying that. I always told the truth in dating and hated BS stuff. You also get labeled bossy, angry, or mean when you speak up. I just appreciate your comment. This is 2023 year and not 1923, women have voices and will not hang their heads down and take it from no man or no woman.
Some women are raised to tolerate so when they see empowered women speak, collect their things, move on, and do better, they are disheveled. I love Trina so much to the point that I wish she was my child. But there are so many who dislike her and accuse her of being bossy and treating Spencer like a child. She reels him in because he has very little restraint. He's admitted he's a hot head, reprobate. Boughee, spendthrift. @@marshagreen9759
I do believe this is progress. Spencer is about to experience a major shift that’s going to force him to finally face his demons. Sadly his relationship with Trina is suffering right now and she is getting hurt in the process but if this future confrontation leads to Spencer healing and becoming whole within himself then that’s also good for Trina. She deserves him at his best and right now he is not stable enough to give her that. She has done all she could do and has shown him what’s possible. It’s up to him to overcome the rest. This was all inevitable. I’m looking forward to a happier and healthier Sprina but this needs to happen for that to come to fruition.
I like the statement "At his best", it was a song called: "At your best" by the Isley Brothers and remade by Aaliyah. Great lyrics and that would apply to Spencer, he does need healing. Trina looked at him with sadness in the hallway, she saw a very hurt little boy in a man's body. Sometimes women are enablers and do not have the right tools to deal with someone that you love. Love your statement desikenkade.
After everything they've been through, he would so carelessly cast her aside over this baby that's probably not even a Cassadine. Spencer looks crazy and callous here.. But Trina! Even in the face of Spencer's hurtful words....I'm so proud of her. She spoke her truth, abruptly left and maintained her dignity.
I love everything you said. They may have messed up big time with this SL, but Trina has such a great screen presence!!! Trina is 'dignity', fair and forgiving 🙂...
@@lisemeunier9696The more I watched the ending is this episode, the more I think callous is an understatement. She didn’t deserve this from him. I am more than happy she chose herself and bounced with the quickness.
At this point, this isn't even about Ace. This is Spencer trying to prove he's not Nicholas. I like Spencer and Trina together, however that answer he gave is all she needs to know. In no way was she asking him to chose, he took it there and pretty much said with that answer she wasn't a priority. Trina deserves better than this. Glad she walked away.
Spencer has always been impulsive. He just reacts without thinking things through. He lashes out a lot. I've just never seen him this way with Trina. I didnt like it at all and I am glad she walked away, because he deserved it after the way he spoke to her. That said, i dont think this is the end for them. This is just a hurdle. Spencer is a little unhinged at this point, and losing Trina won't help his state of mind.
I agree! This will force Spencer to realize just how much he needs/wants Trina. They are definitely a super couple but even the best of the super couples have their major hurdles. He needs to apologize to Trina for how he was talking/yelling at her. Besides the obvious therapy that he needs, he also has WAY too much time on his hands!!! He needs a job or something because he does not handle difficult situations well. If he had a job or at least volunteer, he may be able to view life situations differently instead of just reacting impulsively all the time.
@@ddlovesjc1 I agree with your statement and if he had a job or volunteer, he might handle situations that come up differently. I hope he and Trina will get back on track because they both are young and in love and both should show each other respect and kindness.
Trina is too good for Spencer. I'm glad she walked out on him he's not worth it. Trina has ambition, integrity, and intelligence. Spencer is lacking all three. What an idiot!
I hate to say this, but I think Trina needs to do a temp breakup with Spencer. She needs a guy who will give full attention to her. I love Sprina, but this Ace/Esme thing is beyond ridiculous.
Too many Spencer Trina haters out there every couple has arguments and disagreements doesn't mean they have to go break up every time I have a fight it won't be no long-term marriage is going around in America today give this young couple a chance to work it out before y'all keep trying to break them up cuz like I said it's the writers on the show is going like this in an ugly trying to waste another time bringing another actor in the text Spencer's place select this relationship work its course😮😮😮
Who said I was a hater? I love Sprina. They are the Shawn and Angela for me (boy meets world). I’m still angry how that paring was destroyed in the garbage BMW sequel. I hate seeing how these writers are when it comes to Sprina. How much is Trina supposed to put up with here? She needs to leave Spencer and let him learn the hard way. At this moment in time, he’s taking her for granted and for a fool.
Like I said too many Spencer Trina haters okay people have arguments all the time for couples do there's no such thing as a temporary breakup the riders need to put better story lines on here two and a half years it's time for the end right now😮😮😮
Even though Joss can get on my nerves, I love how she stands up for Trina. The look the girls gave Dex had me weak. It is past time for Trina to slap someone, and Spencer needs to be the first person in line. He never chooses Trina first. After all these years and he has yet to choose her first! I'm so disappointed in him.
Joss is Carly's child. She is going to ride or die for the people she cares for. If she's not on duty, it is intentionally done by the writers, similarly to how Marvel locks down HULK when they wanted Thanos unleashed.
I liked the Sprina scenes today because there is no way but up from here and it moves this nonsensical story to some conclusion. Trina didn't ask Spencer to choose but Spencer made an error when he made that statement about choosing because it actually forces him to choose. He thought by saying that, Trina will back down but she didn't fall for it. Trina chose herself and walked out. Spencer cannot walk what he said back. Trina is not going to accept anything less now that she walked out. So there has to be a resolution because I know Sprina will make up. Cannot wait to see him grovel.
@@chimao215 you really should try comprehend before reply . The situation where the 20 year old brother is obsessed like the father. 20 year old have kids all the time I am one of them I overstand that fully
4:00 SO TIRED OF TRINA always having to speak up while this grown baby is just 😳. Phenomenal acting by all actors I figured this line would happen, but not with Spencer sounding delusional. Hoping Nik will come thru.
He's unhinged. But remember he recently said he'd follow her to the ends of the earth. I was packing a bag and road snacks for Trina because I knew the mushroom cloud was about to appear in the sky. @@TakeGutCare
Spencer has definitely gotten used to Trina’s kind nature and placating of him, his family and Esme cause I don’t think he expected Trina to walk out after that ultimatum. He expected her to keep being a good sport about him living with & having this makeshift family with Esme which has turned into him unconsciously taking advantage of Trina. That “don’t make me choose between you & Ace” was wrong on so many levels and I’m glad she showed him he doesn’t have to choose her because she’ll choose herself. He’s gonna have to fall on his face & have Esme prove Trina right about her games/motives and deal with the weight of walking on eggshells to be around Ace before anything between him and Trina rectifies itself. Because without Trina we all know it won’t be long before he snaps on Esme especially after this breakup
@@katrinabryant9873 That’s just it she’s never asked him to. Her issue has never been Ace it’s Esme and the clear issue of the lines between brother and father/family being blurred. Not only that but he led her to believe this living arrangement was temporary months ago and has begun to change his tune these past few months even after Trina expressed issue with the living situation
@@katrinabryant9873jeez you are everywhere with your tantrums Trina is not bossy also Spencer will regret it I know you hate Trina seen your protective comments for Spencer everywhere chill jeez
She's not at fault. She is the voice of reason, one he's never had before. Everyone accepts money and says "YESSIR Master Cassadine". Not Trina. Everyone and Santa Claus has told him that he has no rights accept being the brother. As his woman, she reminded him of what she already said, been saying. The day would come that Esme would want to move on. She doesn't need to stay and talk this out because she already told him this day was coming. He wants to keep things as is. It's unrealistic. Whatever he chooses to do, he will never have as good as Trina or Emma because money cannot shut them up. They aren't sluts for hire. @@katrinabryant9873
I disagree with everyone that says Trina didn't talk to Spencer enough. In the beginning sure but for months she’s been telling him that she’s uncomfortable with his arrangement. She said it in the gallery when she asked him to consider what he wanted for their future and he has yet to answer her and she’s been saying for a while that he is not Ace’s father. She told him at Laura’s that she was concerned that there seemed to be no boundaries with him and Esme when it comes to taking care of Ace and that things were spilling over. He still has yet to speak to that concern as well. I agree that he has been trying to make some concessions with spending more time with Trina, separating his life with Esme but that’s also the problem, because of that, now all they have are moments, not 2 people sharing their life together and who wants to live a divided life with the person they love. It's like there is this massive bleeding cut that Spencer has been treating with duct tape and as long as it wasn’t spewing blood he thought he was doing a good enough job which is not only untrue but childish and foolish, now the patient is flatlining cause he’s incompetent - this is how I look at this whole situation Spencer has allowed to fester. As for Ace, Spencer has been swearing up and down to anyone who’ll listen, including Trina, that Esme is a good mother, not even capable or adequate but good. And the show has literally been bending over backwards and writing people out of character to establish this. Like Trina, I am failing to see the immediate danger that Ace is in that Esme needs constant supervision from Spencer. There are so many other ways to keep an eye on her but taking Spencer at his word that isn’t even his concern. His biggest concern is not being able to be Ace’s daddy. Trina simply said no matter the circumstances he will never have a legal right to Ace as he is his brother and not his father. Spencer has no rights no matter where Esme lives so what would be the problem if she moved out? And if he wanted to have parental rights he would need to be in a relationship with Esme as that is the only way that Esme would allow it. And if he is gonna be Ace’s daddy through Esme what kind of relationship does he envision them having. He’s the one that made it all or nothing meaning he needs to be Ace’s dad or he has nothing so she took herself out of the equation cause no way is she gonna stand there and let him turn her into an obstacle rather than a valuable part of his life.
You nailed it! He has no legal rights. Love doesn't give you a legal right. A contract does. It really doesn't matter what Esme's motives are, because she never promised Spencer that this child was his. She was running away from anyone trying to clip that bird from her nest. It is Laura who appealed to her in kind, Trina who tabled the investigation. The lines are blurring. Esme is admitting it. Regardless of who she was, who she is, or who she pretends to be this is a Spencer problem. She is open to him seeing and visiting, and has always said "he's mine". I'm glad she's out of that orbit. He can play house all he wants. Truly is pisspoor writing. The baby is in daycare. My question is why? What is Spencer doing in the day? Esme is setting boundaries. I wish people would just accept Spencer's issues, faults, prime directives in coming to PC, and stop making excuses and blaming everyone else. They play a part but if he's that weak he needs his own guardian.
Trina has been more reasonable and patient with Spencer. First of all, babies won't have much of a vivid memories until they are 3yrs old. So for now Spencer has been consistently losing a grip in reality and what boundaries need to be set. Esme is the legal parent with all the rights to do as she pleases with Ace. Spencer may lot like it, but it hard facts. No Cassadine privilege will will change that. Trina walking away was the first step to Spencer realizing his fantasies of being BroDad to Ace are coming to an end. Spencer needs intensive therapy to sort out his abuse/abandonment issues. Trina can only do so much because she loves the silly dork. She wants what best for Ace. But Trina also doesn't want Esme to think her "access" to Spencer is permanent. Even the grownups are not doing their collective jobs... it will much worse before Spencer is able to see the forest through the trees. ❤
@@toshawnaburgher3700 I have to back away for a minute, been arguing with folks concerning Trina. I see a lot of haters and I will say something concerning SPRINA.
I have said that Spencer & Trina should have been checked out from that Haunted Starr ordeal. I noticed Trina knew something was wrong with him, she zeroed in quickly on him. He came to speak to Trina in the hope she would side with him, but he is not understanding that Trina has a problem with Esme but not Ace. Spencer knows now that Trina is no Esme, and she will bite back. Maybe they both need to step back, and he deals with Esme & Ace. Trina made his job easier, and she gave him options.
in theory yes, but soaps use trauma for drama and that is hard to swallow in the era where getting professional help/therapy is less stigmatized the same way they are selective on DNA testing
I loved Spencer and Trina together….but I think Trina needs to leave him at this point. He only cares about his brother and Esme staying under his radar. Trina is obviously not his priority and he’s not giving her the attention and love she deserves
Yeah I’m over it. This guy just said he’d pick his baby brother (who has an active parent that has parental rights, while he has none!) over the person he in love with. He better explain this as a mental breakdown because…??? Your not-even-1-year-old brother over the woman who you’ve been in love with for 3 years??? I know he loves his brother but he’s IN LOVE with Trina. Trina did the right thing, leave because that man who is in love with you, literally admitted that you would come second to something, proving he doesn’t prioritize you (and your relationship). And if he comes back groveling citing the mental breakdown and him saying those thing in anger, still don’t get back with him because he needs to heal - anytime he doesn’t get his way he’ll do this again. This is just weird and annoying. Ace can’t be all of his life or all of his family. Spencer is incapable of starting his own family right now, because if he were to have a kid for himself how would he rationalize Ace. He and Trina are having sex now, so why is he not thinking about this. He should be thinking about Trina getting pregnant and how a family with Trina would be. That would make too much sense so the writers aren’t going in that direction, but it is more likely to be his perspective as a young man in a committed relationship with abandonment issues (that he would consider a family with his partner and that is where his trauma would show up - in the way he fantasizes about that family). Obsessing over the shameful bastard child of you ex-girlfriend/ abuser and neglectful FATHER is a weird way to write Spencer. He wanted nothing to do with them before Ace, so why is he all of a sudden hyper-focused on Ace? It would make more sense that Spencer would have to work through the trauma of his very conception. This is all stupid and makes Spencer look like a man with no concrete sense of self, like a wavering contradiction that is easily swayed by manipulation.
Didn’t he want Evil and Ace to live in Port Charles but not with him? Like when they first got out of the hospital and she moved in to Laura’s he was mad and wanted her out just not away from Port Charles so he could keep an eye on Evil and protect Ace. What happened to that? And don’t tell me the summer, parenting class, or whatever bs the writers contrived to justify Evil’s screen time. When did keeping an on Evil turn into Ace being a part of his daily life? Portia better go down in all of this too because that parenting class empowered Spencer to feel like a dad to this child who isn’t even blood related to him.
He’s not picking between a life with Ace or Trina, he’s picking between a life coparenting Ace with Evil or a healthy relationship with his brother and Evil. Next he’s going to try to bargain and move in with Evil. He speaks as if not living with Ace means he won’t see him and Dex’s stupid behind agreed with that. Shared custody of a baby that’s not yours with a woman you are not with??? No judge would allow that because brother or not, it is seen as a risk that you feel the necessity to be that involved over a child that you already are allowed to present with. Even when he says it out loud Spencer realizes it doesn’t make sense. It’s not even tunnel vision, it’s just him not having anything else. Man he is going to crumble when Nik comes back and/or Ace isn’t a Cassadine. This is the perfect situation for Spencer right now, Evil has ties to Port Charles with a job so she won’t leave, Spencer doesn’t have to cohabitate with Evil, Ace is safe and knows him, Spencer already plays a more active part in Ace’s life, he has a girlfriend who’s fine with him not doing anything in life, and he has his own space (because Laura and Kevin are never around) or can get his own space. He gets to win completely here, but he doesn’t like that because Ace isn’t living with him or because Evil isn’t??? If Nik never left, Spencer wouldn’t be living with Ace anyway because he wasn’t living with Nik anymore and Nik was taking his son. Unless the writers will say this whole storyline would have still happened with Neglectful as a replacement for Evil.
@@katrinabryant9873 nobody said abandon him that’s the part that’s annoying. But I am not going to abandon myself by neglecting my own needs for someone else. Especially not my sibling who will have their own life to live. I would not give up the love of my life for a sibling. If my sibling is truly my sibling, they will always be in my life or I will be able to see them eventually when they become a legal age and I can reach out. Many mothers have taken their kids from toxic households for the betterment of their child and other siblings have to wait to get to know that child. It isn’t wrong and it happens often unfortunately. It sucks but its a reality you have to deal with because you are not the parent. But the sibling will grow up and live, and so should the other person. Life goes on and you cannot put someone else’s life above your own. Spencer is foolish for thinking his brother comes before his “future wife” (as he claims). Ace will never be his life partner, so Spencer should not prioritize him as such. My siblings could never get rid of me or be abandoned by me, we’re connected for life, I can’t say the same about a romantic interest that I literally had to find and choose to maintain. Ace will live and move on. What would Spencer do if Ace moves out… stay with Evil or finally get on with his life. I get your point but I find it very short-sighted and not thought through in terms of how it would look. I have siblings and they do not come before my boyfriend because they do not come before me and the necessary fulfillment of love for my life. It would never be a choice between them because they are separate and don’t conflict - which they shouldn’t because it’s weird and unhealthy if they do (potential life partner and sibling should not be equal). That’s all I’m saying.
He is. And as painful as it is to see, it needs to happen. He has to lose everything so that he can be at place where he can open to getting the help he needs.
Yeah, he's projecting his abandonment from his father onto his brother. And it's making him obsessive, possessive, and borderline abusive. Look how he talked to Esme and with Trina.
Someone said Dex said something because he saw that Spencer was losing it when he was in the military. I didn't see it from that viewpoint but now I do.
This was a fight that needed to happen for this storyline to hopefully come to a close pretty soon. The comments are so funny to me😂One argument and no more Sprina! Whether some of you guys like it or not I can almost guarantee Sprina is endgame! This will all work out in Soap Opera land!
Spencer is spiraling. The anger he held back from his grandmother, he exploded on Trina. She didn't deserve it, but Spencer was too blocked to see Trina's point. Trina also didn't see Spencer's desperation at feeling abandoned by Ace moving. She is fearful of Esme and her power over Spencer. They need to come clean with each other. Hopefully, Joss and Dex can give him observations from outsiders to help him realize that Trina has suffered also and didn't deserve his treatment. 🤔😵💫
I’M SO SICK AND TIRED OF THIS STORYLINE. TRINA HAS SUFFERED FOR 3 YEARS BECAUSE THESE F*CKING WRITERS CAN’T GET OVER THEIR OBSESSION WITH ESME. THE MILLION ATTEMPTS TO REDEEM ESME HASN’T WORK AND THEY KNOW THIS. ESME SERVES NO PURPOSE ON THIS SHOW. WE HAVEN’T HAD ONE SPRINA SCENE WITHOUT THE MENTION OF ESME OR THAT BABY. THEY NEED TO END THIS RIDICULOUS STORYLINE.
GH loves Esme so much, they do not care about SPRINA, only for the ratings. GH can't make us love Esme for her wrongdoings and want us to forgive her. They have trolls on these channels reporting back to them on our comments. I am tired of folks saying Trina is bossy but does not call Joss or other women on the show bossy. GH, I hope you are happy to please the haters of Trina & Spencer by breaking them up. You can redeem Esme all day and all night long, she is dangerous and if Spencer takes her back, so be it. People are tired of this wacky story that is not teaching us fans a dam thing but trying to turn Esme into an angel, not working for me.
@@CatchupGirl71 I am sick and tired of folks hating Trina because of her skin color and trying to redeem Esme as a saint or an angel. I can't stand it and GH is not respecting Trina or Spencer's Love. This couple has proved the powers of GH wrong with their love/romance talent. They have set all kinds of records in the States and in other countries. You always bring it my dear also (thanks).
Spencer Didn't Have To Yell At Trina, He Should've Been Calm & Leave It Alone. I Hope That Spencer & Trina Will Be Back Together Soon, They Were Good For Each Other.💯
I’m actually not nearly as mad as I thought I’d be coming into the episode. A lot of things have gone unsaid around this situation and the last few weeks we’ve started to see Trina being more vocal. I know this might be an unpopular stance, but sex changes relationships. Especially when you’re as young as they are. Trina told Spencer that that progression in their relationship made her start to consider what’s ahead for them. So her not speaking up about her feelings around his living situation doesn’t work for her anymore. Not when she envisions building a future together. Which is why she said that final line, basically stating that for him to have everything he wants he’d be tethered to esme forever(or at least until Ace is gets older). Which would basically end them before they really start… We should all take note of Spencer’s all or nothing language around Ace. We’ve heard him multiple time accuse Trina of saying he should abandon Ace. And today he described his interaction with Laura as her not wanting him to have anything to do with him…I assume we’re gonna see some impulsive, poor decision making coming up. I hope it’s not too damaging to Spencer as a character.
Spencer needed to hear what Trina had to say. Hopefully the reality of the situation will sink in with him. If not, he’s going to lose Trina and Ace. Esme is moving out. Ace is her son, not Spencer’s. I totally understand his abandonment issues, but he’s projecting them on Ace. Spencer needs counseling for his own issues, that’s the bottom line. I’m proud of Trina for not backing down on this. Hopefully Spencer will get his head out if his a** and get the help he needs.
I reviewed this scene again and Spencer never answered Trina's question, where does this leave us? He said do not make me choose between you and Ace, that is not the answer. She asked him earlier that you know what you need to do to stay in Ace's life, you have to be in a relationship with Esme and he said he loved her and not Esme. Trina wanted him to realize that he wanted to be around Ace, but it can't be that way unless Esme is part of his life. Trina told Spencer, you know what the solution is for that and asked where does this leave us? He should have said Trina, it is no us anymore and not fair to you because to be around Ace, I have to take Esme as the complete package. Spencer's comeback was don't make me choose between you and Ace (threat to me). Trina got the drift of things, why stand there and keep talking and making a fool out of herself, she has pride. She walked on by and walked out of the apartment, she was hurt and insulted by her boyfriend.
This! Woohoo! This is what happens when someone is telling you "do what you have to do". So she did. When Esme gave her last word, walked off, and Laura commanded "stay", that is when his computer crashed. When his brain rebooted it was on pre-Trina Safe Mode, where he commands/demands and takes no shorts. He loves Trina, but his brain was no longer in the present. It was in pre-Trina mode, child-like but still giving orders and people followed, no questions ask but how high to jump. Clinically, his impulsivity doesn't allow him to think of consequences before he acts. That's his method of operation. In his irrational megalomaniacal Cassadine mind, Trina is his but she can wait until he secures Ace. Then once he secures Ace, then he comes for Trina and quite possibly eliminate Esme. That's the Cassadine way. They assess what is most crucial first, and so on. Helena once said to Emily, that loving a Cassadine man is no easy feat. In Spencers mind it doesn't matter that the two things he possesses live in separate situations and one partially obstructs the other. To him, they are both his and he's taking them, anyone be damned. I'm saying this because I think you know how the Cassadine men are dating back to Mikkos. Spencer wasn't raised with a lot of that crazy influence, but he's still raised with no speed bumps, no brakes, or stop lights. He's going for what he wants. Remove all obstacles one by one, once that gene kicks in.
@@creating1_c1999 This comment was so deep, that I had to step back. I was never an ABC soap opera watcher, always a CBS until about 3 years ago when SPRINA was launched. What I have been learning the last few months about the Cassadine clan is so weird. At first, I thought they were vampires from Russia, they were a mess. I will go back and re-read your comment, it was very powerful, and I am fascinated by this family. Thanks for explaining my dear.
Marsha I thought you were an old time GH commander. LOL. I truly hope that Spencer crashes before he goes nuclear. I do believe Esme is going to flat out deny him. She's scared of him too from what I saw in the previews, so we shall see. I keep trying to explain to the people that he is not going to be content without Trina, regardless of what he said to her about not forcing him to choose. He's not thinking rationally. I do believe that a ton of #Sprina fans are experiencing PTSD from Esme's machinations that they might be focused too much on the break up and not enough on Spencer's mental health and the fear it is putting in the women around him. He literally dragged Esme for filth and now he's going to ask her to do him a favor...nope! She's going to decline. Plus in contract, NAC needs departure to do his movie. I'm believing he'll bounce, or have a complete breakdown and go into therapy. @@marshagreen9759
@@creating1_c1999 I am an old timer of "As the World Turns, Guiding Light, Y&R, and never an ABC or NBC person. Watch today's episode. She did deny him today because he said he would live with her but not in a romantic way. You were on point, she was feeling Spencer until he kept saying, I will set you up, you, Ace & I and she came back and said (ok) but the 4 of us can live together and he said who, she put Trina in it and Spencer was pissed. Esme said she would do it her way. She did not like Spencer's response about raising Ace without the romance, as friends.
As someone who grew up in a different home from several siblings, Spencer needs to heal 🥴 He has too many unresolved issues and he is hyper-focusing on Ace. “They think Ace shouldn’t be a pet if my life anymore,” no one said that 😭 The delulu is palpable.
Please have them break up. Let Esme have his unstable butt. They truly deserve each other. I will have to put some of the blame on Trina because she had a conversation with him about the very same that almost a year back about taking custody of Ace but chose to be with that bird brain anyway. Spencer not that damn fine to have him speaking to her in that way though. Please please GH please cast a new love interest for Trina, Spencer is working a last nerve
That was when Esme was fragile. She's healthy, healed, working mom, and has a Mother of the Year badge pinned on her chest. The living arrangement is the cause of this blurred effect, and that has never been something Trina ascribed to. She has even reminded him "Snap out of it". He mutes what he doesn't want to hear, what doesn't suit his agenda. He is just a handsome trust fund baby. Nothing to do with his brain. He has all the time in the world and plenty enough left to get to a therapist. I love Trina. She makes him more appealing. She brings out the better qualities in him. But even she cannot make him a man. He's not ready for an adult relationship not with this grown ass woman. He doesn't have a very high opinion of old Esme. He might like this one better. Who cares...because Esme is boring when she's not biting the heads off of birds.
@@creating1_c1999 I know one thing, he saw the look and how quiet Trina was, Joss & Dex were trying to help out. One thing that Spencer doesn't see is Ms. Trina has an Ace up her sleeve, and she is getting ready to play dirty (Trina's Style), he has awakened a "Little Giant." Trina spoke but she also was observing and calculating this whole conversation. She loves Spencer but she also has to slowly step back and give him his space. She will do that for her peace of mind.
Funny thing, Sprina haters are expecting magic to happen with Esme. Avery is a half-decent actor but she's flat and an overcooked villain they want integrated if they can. I wish her well. They could have brought her back as a different character like they keep doing with Michael Easton (now Finn) and Roger Howarth (Austin) but no. They had to drain life force from #Sprina to keep a dead arc alive. @@marshagreen9759
He has major trauma about being abandoned by his father. He is seeing Ace as his younger self. He is reliving his childhood through Ace's situation, especially because they share the same father that wasn't around for him. It's a trauma thing for Spencer. He needs therapy.
@@creating1_c1999 I know but I have been saying for weeks, send her to outer space or to Mars. He was having a meltdown because Trina didn't back him up. Now I think he was lost and no one on his side but Dex.
She should've slapped the crap out of him yelling at her like that I really hope that esme fight for her rights as a parent like she is his mother and he isn't the father his obsession is so annoying the girl isn't leaving town he clearly can still see him he so he won't be abandoned him I want esme to start keeping him away Making clear that ace is her son and to really get new love interest and shut up dex he should've also stayed out of it I really try to skip his scenes I can't with spencer he isn't your son nikolas needs come back because I can't with spencer think he's the father I mean I still have my doubts that baby ace is a cassadine but right he is nikolas .
I want Esme in jail. Like Trina I don’t give a crap how she is as a mother. She’s yet to pay or even take accountability for her horrendous actions. And if Spencer - who was being manipulated by Esme had to go to jail to pay for his crimes (and let’s be real for her crimes) -, then she can to to jail for hers. Ryan “manipulating” her is irrelevant. Especially when we the audience know she chose to attack Spencer’s friends against his [Ryan’s] wishes.
I'm reading these comments and boy o boy. Yes Trina's reaction to the news was a bit insensitive especially in light of seeing how upset Spencer was. So that already started an already spiraling Spencer down a dark road because the person he ran to for solace was not having it. However, it's time for Spencer to face the true reality of his situation. In taking the trip to NYC, making love and saying ILY, he changed the game. There's no going back to what was anymore. He's in a committed relationship with Trina and it's past time he started thinking about his future with her and how she fits in this unhealthy situation he created. They can't go back to status quo. He told Trina he loved her, he was happiest with her and took her virginity in NYC. Y'all not going to tell me that Trina shouldn't be thinking that she wants a future and wants to know what that's going to look like from Spencer's perspective. She's well within her rights to want to know that and to want Spencer to start thinking about their future. The fact that Spencer wants to continue to bury his head in the sand and not think about what the future will look like is unrealistic because you can't tell me that they all going to live there until Ace turns 18 or that Nik is just going to stay gone. Things change. Things have to change, it's as simple as that. What Spencer is doing is commendable but not sustainable because he's not the father and he's not in a relationship with Esme. So knowing that, what was the endgame? That's what Trina and trying to get Spencer to see. At some point hard decisions needed to be made, whether that be he moves on from Trina and continue this unhealthy little family situation he created with Esme or continue with Trina and set some healthy boundaries in a sibling type relationship with Ace. Does Spencer want to get married one day? Does he want children of his own? Does he want a career/job? Does he expect Esme not to date? This situation is unhealthy and good for no one including Ace. There needs to be clear boundaries and there simply isn't any. If Esme is truly different than she would encourage Spencer in continuing to be a part of Ace's life but we all know the true answer to that which is why no one has tested the waters until now. Esme has been slipping under the radar with her performance and no one has been challenging her because they on this amnesia train and things had been going her way for the most part so she hasn't rocked the boat too much just steadily trying to reel Spencer in using Ace. The NYC trip and Nik sighting has changed all that. She now has to make moves and the status quo has ended and some real truths are about to be revealed. Esme has done a masterclass of a con but just like before she's gonna trip up because Trina is her achilles heel
He felt mocked, and I understood it too. In that moment he needed Sonny, not Trina. Despite what he expected which was her warm embrace and some kisses, he needed a grown man's advice. Now that he's older, he avoids men because he's aware he's not developmentally one yet. I have too laughed inappropriately. LOL. But she told him the day would come. I know people don't like the writing, because it is delaying some vindication for Trina, making Sprina stressed, but the reality is that we are seeing the unpacking of trauma.
thanks. He needs an intervention and get him somewhere before he blows and winds up in prison again...honestly someone should have petitioned for a psych eval when he went in for crimes against Ava...but again soaps like trauma to be exploited for drama/ratings @@marshagreen9759
I've been waiting for the living situation at Grandma Laura's to change. Uncle Kevin foreshadowed this when he and Laura returned from Europe. Everyone knows Nik is alive, and he will return eventually. Esme has been comfortable for too long. Will Spencer choose her and Ace over Trina. Possible for the short-term. But in the end, his heart will return to Trina. That's when true Esme will appear!! I can't wait!
First off, Spencer would have woken up on the floor and wondered what had happened. His screaming at her was abusive. I'm so glad she broke it down and walked. She needs to keep walking; she deserves better. Let them bring in another guy with hot chemistry and an on-fire story-line who is mature and can be all that and a bag a chips to/for her. He needs to grow up and go to therapy. GH writers are so predictable. SMH
💯 I've said the same thing and a lot of people didn't like it, there is no reason for Trina to still be with spencer. I agree they need to bring in another guy for Trina, some people where saying GH is not gonna do that. But am like how would y'all know? spencer and trina relationship has ran its course. Trina needs to level up and upgrade to a new boyfriend.
I agree with you. Friday he seemed ready for Shadybrook and a thorazine drip, today it looks like the writers are playing in our faces. @@marshmallowbabe
I should have made it clearer, after a verbal takedown he would have thought he had been hit for how he spoke. It would have not been yelling and screaming at him. You can make someone regret they ever opened their mouth without yelling, screaming, or cussing. It's amazing how an articulate take down can bring someone to their knees and let them know how ignorant they are, and that they stepped to the wrong person. Love is not abusive. The precedence should never be set to allow someone to think verbal or physical abuse is okay. As far as this storyline....Nope...As far as I am concerned the writers opened the door to lay the seeds for a start of an abusive relationship. Lots of women end up in abusive relationships that start with a man yelling at them and then the apologies / pattern start. Yes, I know women can be abusive too but statistics show more women are abused vice being the abuser. @@katrinabryant9873
Honestly, after Spencer snapped at Trina like that, especially after she had every right to be uncomfortable with Esme around Spencer after everything Esme did to Trina. And Trina stood up for herself, my first thought was go Trina, you don't deserve that bs treatment from him.
@@katrinabryant9873 Yes she does and so does Spencer, their ordeal on the Haunted Starr, they went through hell together and should have been checked out. Victor was going to throw them overboard into the sea and Spencer took a beating for Trina. They were too young for that crap and dealing with family.
Loved today. Great drama. Written well. Actually thought the way they incorporated Dex and Joss was well done. I’m actually looking forward to next week. Honestly the only thing that will make me rage quit at this point is Spencer sleeping with Esme.
@@nollonhatchett5873I loved today!! At this point I’m mostly watching gh for this pairing and this was the story finally moving forward. Couples fight. This was a good one. And while I think Trina’s initial reaction was a bit insensitive, it was honest. And she 100% spoke the truth. If he wants to continue playing daddy, he’s going to have to be in a relationship with 🤮.
@@vjones4769 I disagree with you, my dear. Trina told Spencer a few days ago that eventually Esme & Ace will not be living with Laura for long. He was not listening and when she said finally, she is moving, Spencer got pissed. He needs to go back and review when he said it was going to be temporary when he moved in with his grandma to help out. He was lying, he was already getting attached and didn't realize it or want to admit it. But what about Trina's reaction when he rushes off when they are on a date or Esme interrupts them at Laura. Trina asked him will this be forever, and he said no. Spencer knew Trina did not like being around Esme but did not mind being around Ace. Trina should have gotten some counseling from that drug Esme gave her (dangerous drug).
Spencer needs therapy for all those unresolved issues he has bottled up inside. I completely understand he’s attached since he’s been helping raise Ace and has been been with him practically every day of his little life but he needs to work WITH Esme, not against her. Acting barbaric like he has ownership over Ace and control over what Esme does with HER son isn’t the way. I also get why Trina saying ‘finally’ may have rubbed him the wrong way but he shouldn’t have yelled at her and insinuated he would pick Ace over her, especially since Trina never and would never make him choose her over his little brother. I hope Trina keeps her distance for a bit and they don’t let this situation go with some weak apology on Spencer’s part. This drama with Ace/Esme needs to be resolved once and for all and Spencer needs to get a life preferably a hobby or a job.
1. I’m SO glad Trina didn’t give Spencer the satisfaction of having the power to “chose” her or Ace. 🤬 2. Spencer needs to take the base out his voice bc who are you yelling at like that. 3. I blame Spencer and all his enablers aka everyone that encouraged this BS with Spencer and Ace/Esme 4. Dex no one asked for your opinion so please be quiet 5. Welp we didn’t have to worry about Portia or Esme after all bc Spencer f**ked this up all on his own. 6. Ya know…. Sprina is the most popular couple on GH and has been bringing folks back to watching and even new folks watching bc of them. So what exactly are we doing GH? Like you couldn’t just let them be for a while and just have regular relationship drama? 7. That kid isn’t a Cassadine so this is gonna get really dumb 8. If Esme got a restraining order out on Spencer I wouldn’t even be mad and I would support it 10. Being a Sprina fan is hard 😢 11. Spencer will need to do lots of begging if he’s gonna come back from this. I’m just at a loss. 🫣😓
Well said. like I was on this sprina choo choo train n nw I jus feel like coming off for a break rn so disappointed in spencer swear like he needs help😢
@@marshagreen9759 Right like he has nothing to do with this. If Cam was there, he would have plenty to say because he would calm Spencer down. BatDex only met Esme once, so he has no leg to stand on
Run Trina as fast as you can, he’s a immature boy a child, don’t like your mother Trina but your mom was right about him you’re to good for him, he is nothing but a walking ball of entitlement and hurt for you, “run” find you a man that is into you and you only.
Just say you're a Portia supporter and let it be that. Second, stop putting people under one umbrella. To say that's why people like him because of his looks is pretty juvenile. And if you're gonna get on here and speak about mental abuse then you should know what Portia is, and has done to Trina. She is a narcissist who used emotionally abusive tactics on both her daughter and Spencer. That would make her abusive. Lastly, this situation needed to happen. because of Spencer's abandonment issues, and him being a victim of mental and emotional abuse by both his father and Esme it was only a matter of time before he would hit this point. Spencer is letting his emotions cloud his judgement. He was blind sided by his grandmother whose been acting shady asf as of late. Then to top it off she's been siding with a woman who abused him and violated her other grandson and almost sent the love of his life to prison, so of course he's angry. With that said, it doesn't take a genius to see the forest through the trees that Spencer is spiraling. He's held in this anger for a very long time. Spencer isn't a bad guy, he's a victim of abuse; something that happens in a lot of households, unfortunately, including relationships. What's going on has been headed in this direction for some time now. Everyone that's been close to him either screwed him over, lied, or died; his father being the biggest betrayal. So it's only natural he's going to cling to Ace. Ace helps fill that void of abandonment, but he also knows it's not feasible/sustainable. It's another reason why he lashed out. Anxiety, and fear of abandonment was the driving force behind his emotional state today. And he'll find out soon enough that Esme is screwing with him as she did yesterday. But let me make something clear, this is a LOVE STORY whether you like it or not. And Spencer needs therapy. Trina made the right decision. But as NAC said, they're endgame, so i expect a lot of apologizing along with him reasessing who he is and who he wants to be. He's gotta hit bottom in order to get better. THAT'S the reality here. As for Esme, it's already been established, he doesn't give a shit about her. It's Trina and Ace. Over and out. P.S. Anybody who wants to see the response from Sprina fans of today's scenes, head over to Twitter and i guarantee most of us didn't have a problem with what happened today, because it needed to.
Yes, this is a spiral for Spencer for sure. He’s sabotaging himself. And yes this probably needs to happen so that we can move beyond this storyline and just have regular drama. But this is alot at once lol. We waited two years for a kiss then months for them to be intimate, all the while them as a couple ducking and dodging Esme and Portia. They just face obstacle after obstacle after obstacle… it’s maddening as a fan. Yes, I think we’re all clear that Spencer loves Trina. I’m glad he’s said it multiple times and now we have witnesses. I get Spencer’s abandonment issues and him trying to restory his own abandonment using Ace. Girl it’s just a lot. I wish Courtney was around to help him. He would have been a totally diff person is she lived. I did enjoy Anna slapping Valentin tho lol.
@@CJ3581 Yeah, he's also dealing with CPTSD as well. Some of us talked about this several months ago after regarding how he's quick to anger. So anyone thinking this attitude by him was intentional or he was being an ass on purpose, please step back and reassess how he's always checked his tone with Trina. The only time he raised his voice was at the High-Sider bar, and even then you could tell he was on edge.
@@blackbutterfly3364 I still would have told him to take the base out his voice lol (trauma response or not). I’m just getting whiplash from the highs and lows in their relationship. It would be nice if they sent Spencer to therapy to deal with his issues. My concern with this writing is that it’s just gonna make Spencer appear to be an ass and no one is gonna address this so it will just turn into Spencer’s villain origin story. It will go into the agenda of Esme being redeemed 😒. With that being said, I’m so proud of Trina for speaking her mind and not giving Spencer the power to “chose”.
@@CJ3581 No excuse, we're all on the same page with this. I don't see Esme as redeemed I think she said all of that bs to unnerve Spencer yesterday. This is Spencer going dark with Trina as his light. Before redemption comes repentance. Spencer has been keeping his anger at bay and it has to be dealt with.
The Cassadine blood in Spencer will be his downfall. Unfortunately, he will put the nail in the coffin of “Sprina” when he uses the evidence that his uncle left. Can I say how I dislike that TPTB slow-burn their relationship, got us on board, rooted for them, to just break them up?
The writers really hate this couple. They’re even willing to make us hate them together, to push this Esme and Ace stupid storyline. Why do that have this particular couple on their 💩 list so bad? Spencer would’ve never spoken to Trina like that. Where are the writers from the strike?
I have never liked this adult Spencer. His cousin Sam said his behavior was cute when he was a kid, now it's annoying. Trina makes him digestible. I watched him when he came to town. And there was nothing there. Trina brought out the better qualities in him. He needs to leave town and regroup.
@sassyfrass9102, I am upset and mad at Spencer, but I will never ever be for Esme. She drugged Trina & Oz, and that drug is one of the #1 drugs in my state that has killed many folks, including a friend of mine 4 years ago. GH can keep pushing the Esme & Ace storyline until it goes over that cliff. Spencer & Trina are very young and will have some more downs in this relationship. Many folks are jealous of the chemistry and popularity of SPRINA (Point Blank). They rocked it in NYC, but they rock it with all their scenes. I am Team SPRINA to the end.
@@sassyfrass1103 I wish they were back in NYC in room 192. They have not been back for only a week or two and they are out of love. GH is testing us SPRINA fans, and I am about to flunk this dam test. I hate tests like this, trying to slide Esme into our orbit of loving Trina & Spencer. It is not working, and GH knows it.
I used to enjoy Trina and spencer scenes I don’t anymore their relationship was once fun to watch and follow now it’s a strange game of Trina feeling in competition with a baby. I’m glad she broke up with him because spencer is not ready for a committed relationship with her. Who tells their girlfriend to not make them choose between her and a baby she won’t like the answer this has to be the most ridiculous storyline I have ever seen. Also why did they have this conversation in dex apartment with josslyn and him present that was also really weird. November sweeps with gh has been awful so far.
It wasn't too bad. A lot of the polarity is because of holding on too tight. I've been around since Monica was a scrub nurse married to Jeff Webber, but still in love with Rick and that mess bled all the way to her marriage to Alan. Messy! It's soaps. I'm not afraid of the pen. I can take it, leave it. But the passion of that fight makes me want to stick around. Not to be eye-abused, but to see the characters grow. Spencer has miles to go. He may never get there. But he will always remember Trina as the greatest love of his life. If he forgets, the fans won't.
@lexi6797 I get it, except for the last two years. It's been more drama with these two than happy boy friend girl friend stuff. I keep waiting for that, and it seems like it's never come.
I understand that. This is why I will not drag any comment that suggests they end because one can only take so much. I have lines in the sand too. My level is close. Two things I will not watch and remain hopeful is Trina enduring abuse for Sprina breadcrumbs. Why I say I'm a TrinaFF is because I don't care what Spencer does in his messy manic state if the show is going to trivialize to "soapy angst" and promote "endgame for Sprina, just watch wait and see" I'm nearly 50 years in history for this show, and I'm not that stupid to believe Spencer is going to become interesting with Esme and then find his way back to Trina healed with a whole bunch of kids from that psycho who will never see justice. @@teresajefferson3095
I think trina needs a new man tired of this esme storyline it's frustrating. I love #Sprina but guys this storyline makes me sick. Seeing Spencer raise his voice like that at trina pisses me off.
@@loulou-fx9fu Sweetie, I know (Old School), he cares, and he knows she was not only pissed but hurt. He didn't know how to react, because he thought she was going to cry and bow her head down. This is 2023 for all women in the house and not 1923, we have a voice and will use it. Trina also knew what Joss had said about shouting. I think Spencer is thinking about a lot of things right now. They will make it as a couple, they both have to get on the same page and communicate is the key, kiss and makeup and hold each other.
Time to earn Trina Spencer- either you love and put her First or… you fill in the blank! Love the two of you together♥️- as for yelling at Trina, NEVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!
I'm glad that Trina got all the clarity that she needed today from Spencer, she know for a fact now that she's always gonna be second place when it comes to Ace because of Esme using him for her shenanigans. I'm also very proud of her for standing her ground and giving Spencer the break the deserves. She's still better than me cause i would've broke it off right there and then.
Spencer has a lot of mental issues due to his father and I'm very confused as to why no one sees this. Him latching onto Ace is him protecting "himself" as a neglected child. I'm not saying that he doesn't love his brother but it's clearly more about him and Nikolaus and the lasting damage Nikolaus' selfishness and neglect has caused Spencer. A lot of people act that just because Spencer is an adult now that he should just man up. But that's the problem. He's still a young adult and he will carry that neglect for the rest of his life. He needs a lot of therapy to be able to get over it. Boy was acting unhinged about Ace's changed appt. Not one person has suggested he see a therapist on the show and it's mind boggling. Only when he can fix his issues can he be in his best place to be a good partner to Trina. Trina can empathize and support him, but she cannot fix his problems for him.
'I don't love Esme, I love you'... minus Ace' 😶. Is this Cassadine's so called love ? Spence, how dare you yell at Trina, the best thing that ever happened to you ? Who always stand by you even against momma Portia ? Who was willing to risk everything and die for you to save you from your madman uncle Victor? Who has been excessively patient with your questionable cohabitation with 🤐? Whom you should worship as 'the love of your life'? And I could keep going on, and on, and on, about all the qualities that woman has displayed for more that 2 years now... to get this 🤯 from you? What are the writers doing with this character? On a positive note, Queen Trina epitomized the Christabel Pankhurst best quote : 'Remember the dignity of your womanhood. Do not appeal, do not beg, do not grovel. Take courage, join hands, stand beside us, fight with us!” -
*Oh...HELLLLLLLL...No!!!* My neck is rolling! My eyes is rolling! I'm Rolling!!! No TF Spencer didn't speack to Trinia like that! That MoFo done lost his Eva loving mind! I love them together but Gurl, drop his Dusty ass!!! And Dex, ain't nobody asked you for a Amen! Mind Ya Business you Jason Click and Paste 😑
I thought the same thing. But I don’t think he’s fully realized that she actually walked out. He’s still so focused on losing Ace, which is why I think next week we HAVE to watch him pleading with ole girl. Spencer’s full breakdown hasn’t happened yet.! It’s the start of the unraveling
Hate to say it but violence starts with verbal abuse. He is really out of control. Women don't need to tolerate his level of disrespect. Now he's screaming in her face so GH can prop up Esme and Ace. Really??
I dont know about this. The way Spencer talked to Trina…..NOP. IF IT WERE ME , I WOULD WALK AWAY FROM IT ALL. Trina has gone through too much. GH get it together. I am sick of the Esme mess and this crazy, obsessed Spencer.
I hate to say this, but I just don't like when Spencer and Trina are going to breakup, they we're supposed to Love each other. Spencer didn't have to yell at Trina Robinson like that, that is so Disrespectful.
There's something being told about these Cassadine men and their offspring and relatives...Look at the Valentin /Anna shoots Charlotte sl that's running parallel to Spina/Ace. The over protective parental presence, nearly obsessed with the kids, hiding vital information from and betraying the people they say they love to "protect" the child. Valentine and Spencer are a wild mirror right now. I don't know enough details about the Cassadine family history except that they were rich and crazy!😂Victor showed us a lot. He kidnapped Ace and Spencer in his obsession to control the family & the world. These men are from that SAME bloodline... So. who knows what Spencer or Valentin may do behind these children. Valentin just destroyed his relationship with Anna by not telling her that it was Charlotte terrorizing her. He just "wanted to be a good father" to her and protect her. Spencer is saying similar things. This father /child trauma goes way back with them.
Hopefully we see at least one of his family members suggest therapy before they’re talking around him and not too him they are also apart of the problem
Spencer is behaving exactly how I'd expect the heir of the Cassidine(Corinthos) fortune to behave! An Arrogant, spoiled, entitled, elitist, power hungry, snob with severe abandonment issues! If Laura doesn't reign him in or Courtney doesn't make a heavenly visit then he's going to be worse than his Cassidine predecessors! None of this is up to Trina or should fall on Trina because it is not her responsibility to parent Spencer he is not a child he's an adult! It makes for a very unpredictable, unhealthy, volatile and unwise relationship.....
Trina has a whole army around her.. trina better not went home crying cuz if she does spencer is in trouble smh I do feel like she should give him a break rn 😢
Trina is consistent, voice of reason.
Yes, she is consistent, and Spencer really needs this in his life.
Always!
Spencer wants the benefits and responsibilities of being Ace’s father without actually claiming Esme as his girlfriend. It don’t work like that bro. Ain’t no half steppin’. You either wanna be with Trina or you don’t. The way he’s putting her through all this is really f’ed up.
And he's exaggerating a ton...he sees the movement as taking Ace away, he created this fantasy, and salty because it is manifesting unlike how he hoped. This was never a lasting solution.
Unrealistic utopia. @@goodmusiq3539

Sometimes when we’re up set , we can take it out on others unintentionally, in this case I think that’s what he did but, he definitely needs to apologize to her, the writers need to apologize for only showing Sprina once this week, yet Anna everyday! I appreciate the brake from Carly today too, please have Dex and Joss mind their business although I think something is up with Dex speaking up on Spencer’s behalf, maybe they’ll actually be friends or something, it doesn’t seem like he has friends, He probably misses Cam too.

Exactly. She maintained her dignity.

"Esme doesn't have to share custody! You're Ace's brother, not his father!"
Thank you Trina for saying what everyone has known for months. Spencer's possessiveness with Ace is ridiculous.
beyond ridiculous
He's gonna find out the hard way unfortunately.❤
Amen it really is. The way that he acting about Ace is ridiculous. What will he do when he finds out. Ace is not related to him after all. They got Spencer way to obsessed with Ace. It's really a shame.
It's Beyond Dumb
One good thing about Spencer has always been the way he speaks to Trina , because his voice always takes on a gentle tone, but today he was yelling at Trina like he was having a conversation with Nicholas.
Verbal abuse is never acceptable..
Trina was right for walking out today 👍.
Spencer owed Trina apology, because she was right.
Spencer is the brother of Ace not his father.
Kudos to Trina/Tabyana in today's episode👍💪.
I noticed that too. Spencer always used to get loud-mouthed with Laura, Victor, Esme, Nicholas and whoever else got in his way but today was the first time he let loose on Trina. And I’m glad she’s seeing it for what it is. Imagine losing your man to a woman who framed you for revenge p#rn and drugged you. You finally give him a chance after being heavily pursued for over a year and the whole time he constantly throws it in your face that Ace (and by extension Esme) will ALWAYS be top priority. Then has the nerve to gaslight you into thinking this is acceptable behavior. Trina needs to date around. I’m tired of him putting her through all this unnecessary TRAUMA. The only way he can be a father to Ace is if he gets back with Esme. Release him back to the streets.
Agree and I've seen it before, but Spencer's actions are similar to those of a person who is bipolar.
Glad trina put her foot down with Spencer's tantrums😊
@@goodmusiq3539I agree with alot of what u r saying
Spencer seems very ungrateful here today
@goodmusiq3539 lmao, not release him back to the streets 😂. But, I wholeheartedly concur. This man has officially lost his damn mind. There is a form of gaslighting going on with him in regards to how he treats Trina. Anytime Trina tries to bring up his messed up living arrangement, he always manages to bring up his childhood as a way to almost mute her valid feelings regarding him living with his ex. I want to get back to rooting for Sprina, but I'm about over it. I'm so glad Trina walked away. He has a lot of making up to do for the shit he said to her.
I would've said "lower your voice when you're speaking to me" cuz I wouldn't be taking that
Also she wasn't asking him to choose between her and ace. She just wanted to know where their relationship would stand. He's the one who brought it up
Right! Because who the hell is he talking to like that?
Spencer you are so weak you will fall into Esme arms every thing you put Trina through you and that nut Esme
@@JoseConnelly He thought it was Esme but he found out differently.
Right! Spencer’s so selfish. He’s really getting on my nerves. Trina deserves so much better
Man, wtf?? Who this fool thinks he’s talking to like that?? It’s bad enough Trina has to endure Spencer living with Esme, now he is yelling at her? Not only Spencer needs therapy for his abandonment issues but he also needs it for anger management.
Spencer is an idiot. After everything he went through to build a relationship with Trina and he just destroyed it.
Haha I was just about to type the same thing when I read your comment.
@@LMCghwatcher lol, sorry.
At this point they’re just not meant to be, the relationship is getting toxic because Spencer only has Ace and Esme as his priorities
Nah he didn't destroy it. It's normal disagreements. He's being an idiot but it's not destroyed.
It's a cassadine ... They learn the hardway .... It was expected...😂
This writing is WHACK. I'm disappointed in Spencer's behavior today and the writing is on the wall. Spencer is headed for a humpty dumpty fall. I'm now truly convinced that Ace isn't a Cassadine after today. He threatened to chose Ace over Trina and she walked right out and made the decision for him. When the truth comes out all the people that propped up Esme will feel stupid including Spencer. Trina he can't just apologize his way out of this. Spencer needs therapy to deal with his various trauma.
He's also dealing with CPTSD which is why you saw what we all saw today. Which is also why Dex stepped in the way he did. It's also why he hid what really went down at the gym months ago. I also think this has to do with what happened in Greenland. Go back and watch the conversation with Curtis and Laura on the way back. She talked about how the trauma of what happened to Trina and Spencer will pop up at some point, and some of us spoke about it, and I think we're seeing it.
@blackbutterfly3364 You're right 🎯. My boy Spencer had an episode today, and I know he's going to regret what he did today big time. I'm surprised that no one has suggested therapy for Spencer. I'm glad Trina will talk to Ava.
@@flacagonzales Well, Laura's officially on crack, she backs a sociopathic predator, she didn't bother to have Spencer checked out after the explosion Greenland. Let's face it, Spencer's family is whack. This is the hurdle/storm that was mentioned months ago, and here we are. Let Spencer hit bottom so he can heal. Dex was pivotal here because of his time in the military so he can pick up on what looks to be CPTSD. Which is why his tone diffused the situation.
@@flacagonzales I suggested it a while ago but I’m not a writer on the show 🤣
@@blackbutterfly3364 I am glad you explained about Dex, I forgot he was in the military, and he picked up on what was happening to Spencer. I think Spencer thinks everyone is against him, including Trina. Nicholas needs to bring his butt back to Ace & Spencer. Spencer needs his father's love; he may have lost Trina's.
Go off Taby!! She was excellent today 😊
Yes she was, eating up the scenery.
@@creating1_c1999 Trina was a Super Fly Girl in that outfit and she had so much class in letting Spencer know that she chooses herself. She walked on by him (big song in the 70s).
A Burt classic. RIP Burt Bacharach. Another classic, "Alfie" is what he needs to listen to and let him sort this mess out. I'm tired of watching her be sad. She deserves better. This is not better, but harder. The writers need to give her some relief. At this point I don't care if they kill Esme and burn her clothes. Get gone! @@marshagreen9759
Spencer is projecting his abandonment issues onto Ace and it's unhealthy. He's not his father. And when people talk to him, he puts words into their mouths
Exactly!

Most soap opera couples who are super couples break up and get back together eventually. Spencer will hit rock bottom and find out that Ace isn't a Cassadine and then realize that he's been played again by Esme. I do think that Spencer will eventually want Trina back and have to work harder than he did before to get her back, but he will eventually.
Saw this coming too!
Trina is too mature for him. The writers are being very realistic with how a woman would handle his selfish , out of pocket behavior. Grow up Spencer or lose the woman you claim to love.
Trina deserves better than what Spencer is willing to offer her. Good on her for walking away. If Spencer wants her, he's gonna have to put in the work to deserve her.
A couple of things, Trina should have instantly told Spencer to lower his voice because NO. The writing of Spencer is so inconsistent. He's all over the place lately. I don't know how we go from Spencer wanting to be there for his little brother to wanting shared custody?? I am a Sprina STAN but, I need Trina to take a break from him at this point. He can't keep treating her like second best and get away with it.
SPENCER WHO THE HELL ARE YOU YELLING AT
Nah fr would have told him straight up tone that mf voice down cause who tf are you yelling at
Spencer she is right why are you obsessing over someone who's not even your son
I think he’s triggered. Or that’s what the writing was trying to show us. As soon as he came back form NYC he learns his dad has abandoned him AGAIN. So he’s clinging to the only “family” he has left (even though he’s related to over half of PC 🤦♀️)
Imagine your man stressing this hard about where another woman chooses to live with a baby that ain’t even biologically his. The embarrassment 😒😒
I couldn't agree more with all of the comments. We all know that Esme did this on purpose to drive a wedge between Spencer and Trina. Spencer is so stupid! The writer's of GH are stupid! Where is the DNA Test? Where is Nicholas and when is he gonna show up? Or is this how the writer's wanted to do this storyline in the first place? The Wam Bam Thank You Ma'am Storylines of Interracial Couples? What is this? Spencer and Trina were so happy. If Joss and Dex can be happy, going at it like sex crazed animals then why can't an Interracial Couple have that same right? As a matter of fact, Spencer & Trina's love scenes compared to everybody else was totally choreographed quite different. Did anybody else notice or was it just me? GH is even going down that rabbit hole of Kristina and Blaze as a situation. There is something not right with Blaze though. Can't put my finger on it, yet. I just pray that "Linc", is not still pulling strings from in behind Scenes. I'm tired of these types of storylines and with as much as Esme Prince has done, her ass should have been in prison. Lots of women end up in jail when they have done crimes and it didn't matter. Yeah I know it's a soap opera. Just saying!
@@vjones4769 Agreed. What a stupid storyline! Spencer and Trina should be happy! The writer's of GH give Viewers what they wanted sort of. Then they bring this couple back for this mess by throwing that criminal with all her sneakiness back in our face. Esme hasn't changed and eventually all of Ms. Prince, old self is gonna show up!
@@maryfranceswilliams782 I do notice that a lot of soap operas dangle interracial couples especially bwwm in front of our faces to shake things up for ratings but it’s never with the intention of longevity. I’m hoping this time around in 2023 that is not the case. And yes Sprina’s love scenes were choreographed with the help of an intimacy coordinator. I’d argue that Sprina is considered a supercouple and they are endgame so maybe that’s why they got an extra special NYC trip.
this is what i like the most about Trina, she tells it like it is and she's not with the bs whatsoever
@tessjosephh, thanks for saying that. I always told the truth in dating and hated BS stuff. You also get labeled bossy, angry, or mean when you speak up. I just appreciate your comment. This is 2023 year and not 1923, women have voices and will not hang their heads down and take it from no man or no woman.
Some women are raised to tolerate so when they see empowered women speak, collect their things, move on, and do better, they are disheveled. I love Trina so much to the point that I wish she was my child. But there are so many who dislike her and accuse her of being bossy and treating Spencer like a child. She reels him in because he has very little restraint. He's admitted he's a hot head, reprobate. Boughee, spendthrift. @@marshagreen9759
How the hell is tabyana not nominated for an Emmy. She's killing it on gh . I am so mad 😭
I do believe this is progress. Spencer is about to experience a major shift that’s going to force him to finally face his demons. Sadly his relationship with Trina is suffering right now and she is getting hurt in the process but if this future confrontation leads to Spencer healing and becoming whole within himself then that’s also good for Trina. She deserves him at his best and right now he is not stable enough to give her that. She has done all she could do and has shown him what’s possible. It’s up to him to overcome the rest. This was all inevitable. I’m looking forward to a happier and healthier Sprina but this needs to happen for that to come to fruition.
Absolutely.
Totally. The demons need to be dealt with first.
I like the statement "At his best", it was a song called: "At your best" by the Isley Brothers and remade by Aaliyah. Great lyrics and that would apply to Spencer, he does need healing. Trina looked at him with sadness in the hallway, she saw a very hurt little boy in a man's body. Sometimes women are enablers and do not have the right tools to deal with someone that you love. Love your statement desikenkade.
Good for Trina. She’s been very understanding and patient but she’s right. That’s his brother, not his son.
We stand with the Queen.
After everything they've been through, he would so carelessly cast her aside over this baby that's probably not even a Cassadine. Spencer looks crazy and callous here.. But Trina! Even in the face of Spencer's hurtful words....I'm so proud of her. She spoke her truth, abruptly left and maintained her dignity.

At this point, this isn't even about Ace. This is Spencer trying to prove he's not Nicholas. I like Spencer and Trina together, however that answer he gave is all she needs to know. In no way was she asking him to chose, he took it there and pretty much said with that answer she wasn't a priority. Trina deserves better than this. Glad she walked away.
It never was about Ace. It was plain to see.
No self-respecting woman would remain with Spencer. Great acting by Tabyana and Nicholas in these scenes though.
Spencer has always been impulsive. He just reacts without thinking things through. He lashes out a lot. I've just never seen him this way with Trina. I didnt like it at all and I am glad she walked away, because he deserved it after the way he spoke to her.
That said, i dont think this is the end for them. This is just a hurdle. Spencer is a little unhinged at this point, and losing Trina won't help his state of mind.
I agree! This will force Spencer to realize just how much he needs/wants Trina. They are definitely a super couple but even the best of the super couples have their major hurdles. He needs to apologize to Trina for how he was talking/yelling at her. Besides the obvious therapy that he needs, he also has WAY too much time on his hands!!! He needs a job or something because he does not handle difficult situations well. If he had a job or at least volunteer, he may be able to view life situations differently instead of just reacting impulsively all the time.
@@ddlovesjc1 I agree with your statement and if he had a job or volunteer, he might handle situations that come up differently. I hope he and Trina will get back on track because they both are young and in love and both should show each other respect and kindness.
Trina is too good for Spencer. I'm glad she walked out on him he's not worth it. Trina has ambition, integrity, and intelligence. Spencer is lacking all three. What an idiot!
I hate to say this, but I think Trina needs to do a temp breakup with Spencer. She needs a guy who will give full attention to her. I love Sprina, but this Ace/Esme thing is beyond ridiculous.
And they're not going to bring another young actor on board to be with Trina, so dead that
Too many Spencer Trina haters out there every couple has arguments and disagreements doesn't mean they have to go break up every time I have a fight it won't be no long-term marriage is going around in America today give this young couple a chance to work it out before y'all keep trying to break them up cuz like I said it's the writers on the show is going like this in an ugly trying to waste another time bringing another actor in the text Spencer's place select this relationship work its course😮😮😮
Who said I was a hater? I love Sprina. They are the Shawn and Angela for me (boy meets world). I’m still angry how that paring was destroyed in the garbage BMW sequel. I hate seeing how these writers are when it comes to Sprina. How much is Trina supposed to put up with here? She needs to leave Spencer and let him learn the hard way. At this moment in time, he’s taking her for granted and for a fool.

Even though Joss can get on my nerves, I love how she stands up for Trina. The look the girls gave Dex had me weak. It is past time for Trina to slap someone, and Spencer needs to be the first person in line. He never chooses Trina first. After all these years and he has yet to choose her first! I'm so disappointed in him.
Joss is Carly's child. She is going to ride or die for the people she cares for. If she's not on duty, it is intentionally done by the writers, similarly to how Marvel locks down HULK when they wanted Thanos unleashed.
Dex talking to Spencer about Esme .. he hasn't ever met her just stand back and be quiet like Brock said. lol
I liked the Sprina scenes today because there is no way but up from here and it moves this nonsensical story to some conclusion. Trina didn't ask Spencer to choose but Spencer made an error when he made that statement about choosing because it actually forces him to choose. He thought by saying that, Trina will back down but she didn't fall for it. Trina chose herself and walked out. Spencer cannot walk what he said back. Trina is not going to accept anything less now that she walked out. So there has to be a resolution because I know Sprina will make up. Cannot wait to see him grovel.

Spencer better be careful before those family psychopath traits start rising up because of this obsession with Ace who is NOT his son😒😒
Spencer has definitely gotten used to Trina’s kind nature and placating of him, his family and Esme cause I don’t think he expected Trina to walk out after that ultimatum. He expected her to keep being a good sport about him living with & having this makeshift family with Esme which has turned into him unconsciously taking advantage of Trina. That “don’t make me choose between you & Ace” was wrong on so many levels and I’m glad she showed him he doesn’t have to choose her because she’ll choose herself.
He’s gonna have to fall on his face & have Esme prove Trina right about her games/motives and deal with the weight of walking on eggshells to be around Ace before anything between him and Trina rectifies itself. Because without Trina we all know it won’t be long before he snaps on Esme especially after this breakup
@@katrinabryant9873 That’s just it she’s never asked him to. Her issue has never been Ace it’s Esme and the clear issue of the lines between brother and father/family being blurred.

She's not at fault. She is the voice of reason, one he's never had before. Everyone accepts money and says "YESSIR Master Cassadine". Not Trina. Everyone and Santa Claus has told him that he has no rights accept being the brother. As his woman, she reminded him of what she already said, been saying. The day would come that Esme would want to move on.
She doesn't need to stay and talk this out because she already told him this day was coming. He wants to keep things as is. It's unrealistic.
Whatever he chooses to do, he will never have as good as Trina or Emma because money cannot shut them up. They aren't sluts for hire. @@katrinabryant9873
I disagree with everyone that says Trina didn't talk to Spencer enough. In the beginning sure but for months she’s been telling him that she’s uncomfortable with his arrangement. She said it in the gallery when she asked him to consider what he wanted for their future and he has yet to answer her and she’s been saying for a while that he is not Ace’s father. She told him at Laura’s that she was concerned that there seemed to be no boundaries with him and Esme when it comes to taking care of Ace and that things were spilling over. He still has yet to speak to that concern as well. I agree that he has been trying to make some concessions with spending more time with Trina, separating his life with Esme but that’s also the problem, because of that, now all they have are moments, not 2 people sharing their life together and who wants to live a divided life with the person they love.
It's like there is this massive bleeding cut that Spencer has been treating with duct tape and as long as it wasn’t spewing blood he thought he was doing a good enough job which is not only untrue but childish and foolish, now the patient is flatlining cause he’s incompetent - this is how I look at this whole situation Spencer has allowed to fester.
As for Ace, Spencer has been swearing up and down to anyone who’ll listen, including Trina, that Esme is a good mother, not even capable or adequate but good. And the show has literally been bending over backwards and writing people out of character to establish this. Like Trina, I am failing to see the immediate danger that Ace is in that Esme needs constant supervision from Spencer. There are so many other ways to keep an eye on her but taking Spencer at his word that isn’t even his concern. His biggest concern is not being able to be Ace’s daddy.
Trina simply said no matter the circumstances he will never have a legal right to Ace as he is his brother and not his father. Spencer has no rights no matter where Esme lives so what would be the problem if she moved out? And if he wanted to have parental rights he would need to be in a relationship with Esme as that is the only way that Esme would allow it. And if he is gonna be Ace’s daddy through Esme what kind of relationship does he envision them having. He’s the one that made it all or nothing meaning he needs to be Ace’s dad or he has nothing so she took herself out of the equation cause no way is she gonna stand there and let him turn her into an obstacle rather than a valuable part of his life.
You nailed it!
He has no legal rights. Love doesn't give you a legal right. A contract does. It really doesn't matter what Esme's motives are, because she never promised Spencer that this child was his. She was running away from anyone trying to clip that bird from her nest. It is Laura who appealed to her in kind, Trina who tabled the investigation.
The lines are blurring. Esme is admitting it. Regardless of who she was, who she is, or who she pretends to be this is a Spencer problem. She is open to him seeing and visiting, and has always said "he's mine".
I'm glad she's out of that orbit. He can play house all he wants. Truly is pisspoor writing. The baby is in daycare. My question is why? What is Spencer doing in the day? Esme is setting boundaries. I wish people would just accept Spencer's issues, faults, prime directives in coming to PC, and stop making excuses and blaming everyone else. They play a part but if he's that weak he needs his own guardian.
I went back and reviewed some older scenes, and she did talk to him, and he knows. Thanks for the reminder my dear.
@@marshagreen9759 no problem
Trina has been more reasonable and patient with Spencer. First of all, babies won't have much of a vivid memories until they are 3yrs old. So for now Spencer has been consistently losing a grip in reality and what boundaries need to be set. Esme is the legal parent with all the rights to do as she pleases with Ace. Spencer may lot like it, but it hard facts. No Cassadine privilege will will change that. Trina walking away was the first step to Spencer realizing his fantasies of being BroDad to Ace are coming to an end. Spencer needs intensive therapy to sort out his abuse/abandonment issues. Trina can only do so much because she loves the silly dork. She wants what best for Ace. But Trina also doesn't want Esme to think her "access" to Spencer is permanent. Even the grownups are not doing their collective jobs... it will much worse before Spencer is able to see the forest through the trees.

@@toshawnaburgher3700 I have to back away for a minute, been arguing with folks concerning Trina. I see a lot of haters and I will say something concerning SPRINA.
I have said that Spencer & Trina should have been checked out from that Haunted Starr ordeal. I noticed Trina knew something was wrong with him, she zeroed in quickly on him. He came to speak to Trina in the hope she would side with him, but he is not understanding that Trina has a problem with Esme but not Ace. Spencer knows now that Trina is no Esme, and she will bite back. Maybe they both need to step back, and he deals with Esme & Ace. Trina made his job easier, and she gave him options.
in theory yes, but soaps use trauma for drama and that is hard to swallow in the era where getting professional help/therapy is less stigmatized
the same way they are selective on DNA testing
@@creating1_c1999 Great points and I would not trust any DNA from GH.
yep because folks are always switching it...@@marshagreen9759
I loved Spencer and Trina together….but I think Trina needs to leave him at this point. He only cares about his brother and Esme staying under his radar. Trina is obviously not his priority and he’s not giving her the attention and love she deserves
Yeah I’m over it. This guy just said he’d pick his baby brother (who has an active parent that has parental rights, while he has none!) over the person he in love with. He better explain this as a mental breakdown because…??? Your not-even-1-year-old brother over the woman who you’ve been in love with for 3 years??? I know he loves his brother but he’s IN LOVE with Trina. Trina did the right thing, leave because that man who is in love with you, literally admitted that you would come second to something, proving he doesn’t prioritize you (and your relationship). And if he comes back groveling citing the mental breakdown and him saying those thing in anger, still don’t get back with him because he needs to heal - anytime he doesn’t get his way he’ll do this again. This is just weird and annoying. Ace can’t be all of his life or all of his family. Spencer is incapable of starting his own family right now, because if he were to have a kid for himself how would he rationalize Ace. He and Trina are having sex now, so why is he not thinking about this. He should be thinking about Trina getting pregnant and how a family with Trina would be. That would make too much sense so the writers aren’t going in that direction, but it is more likely to be his perspective as a young man in a committed relationship with abandonment issues (that he would consider a family with his partner and that is where his trauma would show up - in the way he fantasizes about that family). Obsessing over the shameful bastard child of you ex-girlfriend/ abuser and neglectful FATHER is a weird way to write Spencer. He wanted nothing to do with them before Ace, so why is he all of a sudden hyper-focused on Ace? It would make more sense that Spencer would have to work through the trauma of his very conception. This is all stupid and makes Spencer look like a man with no concrete sense of self, like a wavering contradiction that is easily swayed by manipulation.
Didn’t he want Evil and Ace to live in Port Charles but not with him? Like when they first got out of the hospital and she moved in to Laura’s he was mad and wanted her out just not away from Port Charles so he could keep an eye on Evil and protect Ace. What happened to that? And don’t tell me the summer, parenting class, or whatever bs the writers contrived to justify Evil’s screen time. When did keeping an on Evil turn into Ace being a part of his daily life? Portia better go down in all of this too because that parenting class empowered Spencer to feel like a dad to this child who isn’t even blood related to him.
He’s not picking between a life with Ace or Trina, he’s picking between a life coparenting Ace with Evil or a healthy relationship with his brother and Evil. Next he’s going to try to bargain and move in with Evil. He speaks as if not living with Ace means he won’t see him and Dex’s stupid behind agreed with that. Shared custody of a baby that’s not yours with a woman you are not with??? No judge would allow that because brother or not, it is seen as a risk that you feel the necessity to be that involved over a child that you already are allowed to present with. Even when he says it out loud Spencer realizes it doesn’t make sense. It’s not even tunnel vision, it’s just him not having anything else. Man he is going to crumble when Nik comes back and/or Ace isn’t a Cassadine. This is the perfect situation for Spencer right now, Evil has ties to Port Charles with a job so she won’t leave, Spencer doesn’t have to cohabitate with Evil, Ace is safe and knows him, Spencer already plays a more active part in Ace’s life, he has a girlfriend who’s fine with him not doing anything in life, and he has his own space (because Laura and Kevin are never around) or can get his own space. He gets to win completely here, but he doesn’t like that because Ace isn’t living with him or because Evil isn’t??? If Nik never left, Spencer wouldn’t be living with Ace anyway because he wasn’t living with Nik anymore and Nik was taking his son. Unless the writers will say this whole storyline would have still happened with Neglectful as a replacement for Evil.
alleyoop!
@@katrinabryant9873 nobody said abandon him that’s the part that’s annoying. But I am not going to abandon myself by neglecting my own needs for someone else. Especially not my sibling who will have their own life to live. I would not give up the love of my life for a sibling. If my sibling is truly my sibling, they will always be in my life or I will be able to see them eventually when they become a legal age and I can reach out. Many mothers have taken their kids from toxic households for the betterment of their child and other siblings have to wait to get to know that child. It isn’t wrong and it happens often unfortunately. It sucks but its a reality you have to deal with because you are not the parent. But the sibling will grow up and live, and so should the other person. Life goes on and you cannot put someone else’s life above your own. Spencer is foolish for thinking his brother comes before his “future wife” (as he claims). Ace will never be his life partner, so Spencer should not prioritize him as such. My siblings could never get rid of me or be abandoned by me, we’re connected for life, I can’t say the same about a romantic interest that I literally had to find and choose to maintain. Ace will live and move on. What would Spencer do if Ace moves out… stay with Evil or finally get on with his life. I get your point but I find it very short-sighted and not thought through in terms of how it would look. I have siblings and they do not come before my boyfriend because they do not come before me and the necessary fulfillment of love for my life. It would never be a choice between them because they are separate and don’t conflict - which they shouldn’t because it’s weird and unhealthy if they do (potential life partner and sibling should not be equal). That’s all I’m saying.
Spencer needs to take several seats and slow his damn roll. WTH is talking to like that. The writers are ruining Sprina
Spencer is having a mental breakdown...he was rude...but also he is damage and need therapy.
He is. And as painful as it is to see, it needs to happen. He has to lose everything so that he can be at place where he can open to getting the help he needs.
Yeah, he's projecting his abandonment from his father onto his brother. And it's making him obsessive, possessive, and borderline abusive. Look how he talked to Esme and with Trina.
@@Dreamlillie_95 Nah, Esme deserved his ire; not Trina
Someone said Dex said something because he saw that Spencer was losing it when he was in the military. I didn't see it from that viewpoint but now I do.
This was a fight that needed to happen for this storyline to hopefully come to a close pretty soon. The comments are so funny to me😂One argument and no more Sprina! Whether some of you guys like it or not I can almost guarantee Sprina is endgame! This will all work out in Soap Opera land!
Spencer is spiraling. The anger he held back from his grandmother, he exploded on Trina. She didn't deserve it, but Spencer was too blocked to see Trina's point. Trina also didn't see Spencer's desperation at feeling abandoned by Ace moving. She is fearful of Esme and her power over Spencer. They need to come clean with each other. Hopefully, Joss and Dex can give him observations from outsiders to help him realize that Trina has suffered also and didn't deserve his treatment. 🤔😵💫
@reneemills1868, I just read your comment and I loved it, thank you for your wisdom. We need this in this world today.
I’M SO SICK AND TIRED OF THIS STORYLINE. TRINA HAS SUFFERED FOR 3 YEARS BECAUSE THESE F*CKING WRITERS CAN’T GET OVER THEIR OBSESSION WITH ESME. THE MILLION ATTEMPTS TO REDEEM ESME HASN’T WORK AND THEY KNOW THIS. ESME SERVES NO PURPOSE ON THIS SHOW. WE HAVEN’T HAD ONE SPRINA SCENE WITHOUT THE MENTION OF ESME OR THAT BABY. THEY NEED TO END THIS RIDICULOUS STORYLINE.
I love that you wrote your comments IN ALL CAPS because you perfectly, expertly expressed exactly how I feel about the situation. Thank you!
GH loves Esme so much, they do not care about SPRINA, only for the ratings. GH can't make us love Esme for her wrongdoings and want us to forgive her. They have trolls on these channels reporting back to them on our comments. I am tired of folks saying Trina is bossy but does not call Joss or other women on the show bossy. GH, I hope you are happy to please the haters of Trina & Spencer by breaking them up. You can redeem Esme all day and all night long, she is dangerous and if Spencer takes her back, so be it. People are tired of this wacky story that is not teaching us fans a dam thing but trying to turn Esme into an angel, not working for me.
@@marshagreen9759 Please preach the truth Sis! Thank you! Couldn't have said it any better myself!
@@CatchupGirl71 I am sick and tired of folks hating Trina because of her skin color and trying to redeem Esme as a saint or an angel. I can't stand it and GH is not respecting Trina or Spencer's Love. This couple has proved the powers of GH wrong with their love/romance talent. They have set all kinds of records in the States and in other countries. You always bring it my dear also (thanks).
Spencer Didn't Have To Yell At Trina, He Should've Been Calm & Leave It Alone. I Hope That Spencer & Trina Will Be Back Together Soon, They Were Good For Each Other.💯
Even Trina knew that somethings wasn't ok when Spencer yelled at her. I hope ace isn't really a casadine. So Spencer can wake up
What is Spencer smoking!? 😂 please someone let me know cause there’s no way he’s acting sanely right now.
right!
I’m actually not nearly as mad as I thought I’d be coming into the episode. A lot of things have gone unsaid around this situation and the last few weeks we’ve started to see Trina being more vocal.
I know this might be an unpopular stance, but sex changes relationships. Especially when you’re as young as they are. Trina told Spencer that that progression in their relationship made her start to consider what’s ahead for them. So her not speaking up about her feelings around his living situation doesn’t work for her anymore. Not when she envisions building a future together. Which is why she said that final line, basically stating that for him to have everything he wants he’d be tethered to esme forever(or at least until Ace is gets older). Which would basically end them before they really start…
We should all take note of Spencer’s all or nothing language around Ace. We’ve heard him multiple time accuse Trina of saying he should abandon Ace. And today he described his interaction with Laura as her not wanting him to have anything to do with him…I assume we’re gonna see some impulsive, poor decision making coming up. I hope it’s not too damaging to Spencer as a character.
Spencer needed to hear what Trina had to say. Hopefully the reality of the situation will sink in with him. If not, he’s going to lose Trina and Ace. Esme is moving out. Ace is her son, not Spencer’s. I totally understand his abandonment issues, but he’s projecting them on Ace. Spencer needs counseling for his own issues, that’s the bottom line. I’m proud of Trina for not backing down on this. Hopefully Spencer will get his head out if his a** and get the help he needs.
Go Trina!
Spencer is so dramatic lol
I reviewed this scene again and Spencer never answered Trina's question, where does this leave us? He said do not make me choose between you and Ace, that is not the answer. She asked him earlier that you know what you need to do to stay in Ace's life, you have to be in a relationship with Esme and he said he loved her and not Esme. Trina wanted him to realize that he wanted to be around Ace, but it can't be that way unless Esme is part of his life. Trina told Spencer, you know what the solution is for that and asked where does this leave us? He should have said Trina, it is no us anymore and not fair to you because to be around Ace, I have to take Esme as the complete package. Spencer's comeback was don't make me choose between you and Ace (threat to me). Trina got the drift of things, why stand there and keep talking and making a fool out of herself, she has pride. She walked on by and walked out of the apartment, she was hurt and insulted by her boyfriend.
This! Woohoo!
This is what happens when someone is telling you "do what you have to do". So she did.
When Esme gave her last word, walked off, and Laura commanded "stay", that is when his computer crashed. When his brain rebooted it was on pre-Trina Safe Mode, where he commands/demands and takes no shorts. He loves Trina, but his brain was no longer in the present. It was in pre-Trina mode, child-like but still giving orders and people followed, no questions ask but how high to jump.
Clinically, his impulsivity doesn't allow him to think of consequences before he acts. That's his method of operation. In his irrational megalomaniacal Cassadine mind, Trina is his but she can wait until he secures Ace. Then once he secures Ace, then he comes for Trina and quite possibly eliminate Esme.
That's the Cassadine way. They assess what is most crucial first, and so on. Helena once said to Emily, that loving a Cassadine man is no easy feat.
In Spencers mind it doesn't matter that the two things he possesses live in separate situations and one partially obstructs the other. To him, they are both his and he's taking them, anyone be damned.
I'm saying this because I think you know how the Cassadine men are dating back to Mikkos. Spencer wasn't raised with a lot of that crazy influence, but he's still raised with no speed bumps, no brakes, or stop lights. He's going for what he wants. Remove all obstacles one by one, once that gene kicks in.
I love your review❤❤❤
@@creating1_c1999 This comment was so deep, that I had to step back. I was never an ABC soap opera watcher, always a CBS until about 3 years ago when SPRINA was launched. What I have been learning the last few months about the Cassadine clan is so weird. At first, I thought they were vampires from Russia, they were a mess. I will go back and re-read your comment, it was very powerful, and I am fascinated by this family. Thanks for explaining my dear.
Marsha I thought you were an old time GH commander. LOL.
I truly hope that Spencer crashes before he goes nuclear. I do believe Esme is going to flat out deny him. She's scared of him too from what I saw in the previews, so we shall see.
I keep trying to explain to the people that he is not going to be content without Trina, regardless of what he said to her about not forcing him to choose. He's not thinking rationally. I do believe that a ton of #Sprina fans are experiencing PTSD from Esme's machinations that they might be focused too much on the break up and not enough on Spencer's mental health and the fear it is putting in the women around him.
He literally dragged Esme for filth and now he's going to ask her to do him a favor...nope! She's going to decline. Plus in contract, NAC needs departure to do his movie. I'm believing he'll bounce, or have a complete breakdown and go into therapy.
@@marshagreen9759
@@creating1_c1999 I am an old timer of "As the World Turns, Guiding Light, Y&R, and never an ABC or NBC person. Watch today's episode. She did deny him today because he said he would live with her but not in a romantic way. You were on point, she was feeling Spencer until he kept saying, I will set you up, you, Ace & I and she came back and said (ok) but the 4 of us can live together and he said who, she put Trina in it and Spencer was pissed. Esme said she would do it her way. She did not like Spencer's response about raising Ace without the romance, as friends.
As someone who grew up in a different home from several siblings, Spencer needs to heal 🥴 He has too many unresolved issues and he is hyper-focusing on Ace. “They think Ace shouldn’t be a pet if my life anymore,” no one said that 😭 The delulu is palpable.
He is delusional, he needs to be in a psych ward before he does something that could land him back in the can.
Honestly, Trina needa let him go because this is not working.
Please have them break up. Let Esme have his unstable butt. They truly deserve each other. I will have to put some of the blame on Trina because she had a conversation with him about the very same that almost a year back about taking custody of Ace but chose to be with that bird brain anyway. Spencer not that damn fine to have him speaking to her in that way though. Please please GH please cast a new love interest for Trina, Spencer is working a last nerve
You know they're not going to do that, right?
That was when Esme was fragile. She's healthy, healed, working mom, and has a Mother of the Year badge pinned on her chest. The living arrangement is the cause of this blurred effect, and that has never been something Trina ascribed to. She has even reminded him "Snap out of it". He mutes what he doesn't want to hear, what doesn't suit his agenda.
He is just a handsome trust fund baby. Nothing to do with his brain. He has all the time in the world and plenty enough left to get to a therapist.
I love Trina. She makes him more appealing. She brings out the better qualities in him. But even she cannot make him a man. He's not ready for an adult relationship not with this grown ass woman.
He doesn't have a very high opinion of old Esme. He might like this one better. Who cares...because Esme is boring when she's not biting the heads off of birds.
@@creating1_c1999 I know one thing, he saw the look and how quiet Trina was, Joss & Dex were trying to help out. One thing that Spencer doesn't see is Ms. Trina has an Ace up her sleeve, and she is getting ready to play dirty (Trina's Style), he has awakened a "Little Giant." Trina spoke but she also was observing and calculating this whole conversation. She loves Spencer but she also has to slowly step back and give him his space. She will do that for her peace of mind.
Funny thing, Sprina haters are expecting magic to happen with Esme. Avery is a half-decent actor but she's flat and an overcooked villain they want integrated if they can. I wish her well. They could have brought her back as a different character like they keep doing with Michael Easton (now Finn) and Roger Howarth (Austin) but no. They had to drain life force from #Sprina to keep a dead arc alive. @@marshagreen9759
He has major trauma about being abandoned by his father. He is seeing Ace as his younger self. He is reliving his childhood through Ace's situation, especially because they share the same father that wasn't around for him. It's a trauma thing for Spencer. He needs therapy.
Is Esme moving to another planet? That killed me when Joss said that.
lol. it's like they were trying to talk him off of a ledge
@@creating1_c1999 I know but I have been saying for weeks, send her to outer space or to Mars. He was having a meltdown because Trina didn't back him up. Now I think he was lost and no one on his side but Dex.

😂
She should've slapped the crap out of him yelling at her like that I really hope that esme fight for her rights as a parent like she is his mother and he isn't the father his obsession is so annoying the girl isn't leaving town he clearly can still see him he so he won't be abandoned him I want esme to start keeping him away Making clear that ace is her son and to really get new love interest and shut up dex he should've also stayed out of it I really try to skip his scenes I can't with spencer he isn't your son nikolas needs come back because I can't with spencer think he's the father I mean I still have my doubts that baby ace is a cassadine but right he is nikolas .
Ive been asking for someone to slap Spencer for a while now. 😂 He’s so disrespectful and condescending to people.
@@222tresor Same! I don't see why trina wants if you ask me.
I want Esme in jail. Like Trina I don’t give a crap how she is as a mother. She’s yet to pay or even take accountability for her horrendous actions. And if Spencer - who was being manipulated by Esme had to go to jail to pay for his crimes (and let’s be real for her crimes) -, then she can to to jail for hers. Ryan “manipulating” her is irrelevant. Especially when we the audience know she chose to attack Spencer’s friends against his [Ryan’s] wishes.
I'm reading these comments and boy o boy. Yes Trina's reaction to the news was a bit insensitive especially in light of seeing how upset Spencer was. So that already started an already spiraling Spencer down a dark road because the person he ran to for solace was not having it. However, it's time for Spencer to face the true reality of his situation. In taking the trip to NYC, making love and saying ILY, he changed the game. There's no going back to what was anymore. He's in a committed relationship with Trina and it's past time he started thinking about his future with her and how she fits in this unhealthy situation he created. They can't go back to status quo. He told Trina he loved her, he was happiest with her and took her virginity in NYC. Y'all not going to tell me that Trina shouldn't be thinking that she wants a future and wants to know what that's going to look like from Spencer's perspective. She's well within her rights to want to know that and to want Spencer to start thinking about their future. The fact that Spencer wants to continue to bury his head in the sand and not think about what the future will look like is unrealistic because you can't tell me that they all going to live there until Ace turns 18 or that Nik is just going to stay gone. Things change. Things have to change, it's as simple as that. What Spencer is doing is commendable but not sustainable because he's not the father and he's not in a relationship with Esme. So knowing that, what was the endgame? That's what Trina and trying to get Spencer to see. At some point hard decisions needed to be made, whether that be he moves on from Trina and continue this unhealthy little family situation he created with Esme or continue with Trina and set some healthy boundaries in a sibling type relationship with Ace. Does Spencer want to get married one day? Does he want children of his own? Does he want a career/job? Does he expect Esme not to date? This situation is unhealthy and good for no one including Ace. There needs to be clear boundaries and there simply isn't any. If Esme is truly different than she would encourage Spencer in continuing to be a part of Ace's life but we all know the true answer to that which is why no one has tested the waters until now. Esme has been slipping under the radar with her performance and no one has been challenging her because they on this amnesia train and things had been going her way for the most part so she hasn't rocked the boat too much just steadily trying to reel Spencer in using Ace. The NYC trip and Nik sighting has changed all that. She now has to make moves and the status quo has ended and some real truths are about to be revealed. Esme has done a masterclass of a con but just like before she's gonna trip up because Trina is her achilles heel
This!!!!All of this!!!
He felt mocked, and I understood it too. In that moment he needed Sonny, not Trina. Despite what he expected which was her warm embrace and some kisses, he needed a grown man's advice.
Now that he's older, he avoids men because he's aware he's not developmentally one yet. I have too laughed inappropriately. LOL. But she told him the day would come.
I know people don't like the writing, because it is delaying some vindication for Trina, making Sprina stressed, but the reality is that we are seeing the unpacking of trauma.
@@creating1_c1999 Wow!! I love the "Unpacking of Trauma", that was deep and thank you.
thanks. He needs an intervention and get him somewhere before he blows and winds up in prison again...honestly someone should have petitioned for a psych eval when he went in for crimes against Ava...but again soaps like trauma to be exploited for drama/ratings @@marshagreen9759
I've been waiting for the living situation at Grandma Laura's to change. Uncle Kevin foreshadowed this when he and Laura returned from Europe. Everyone knows Nik is alive, and he will return eventually. Esme has been comfortable for too long. Will Spencer choose her and Ace over Trina. Possible for the short-term. But in the end, his heart will return to Trina. That's when true Esme will appear!! I can't wait!
First off, Spencer would have woken up on the floor and wondered what had happened. His screaming at her was abusive. I'm so glad she broke it down and walked. She needs to keep walking; she deserves better. Let them bring in another guy with hot chemistry and an on-fire story-line who is mature and can be all that and a bag a chips to/for her. He needs to grow up and go to therapy. GH writers are so predictable. SMH
💯 I've said the same thing and a lot of people didn't like it, there is no reason for Trina to still be with spencer. I agree they need to bring in another guy for Trina, some people where saying GH is not gonna do that. But am like how would y'all know? spencer and trina relationship has ran its course. Trina needs to level up and upgrade to a new boyfriend.
I agree with you. Friday he seemed ready for Shadybrook and a thorazine drip, today it looks like the writers are playing in our faces. @@marshmallowbabe
I should have made it clearer, after a verbal takedown he would have thought he had been hit for how he spoke. It would have not been yelling and screaming at him. You can make someone regret they ever opened their mouth without yelling, screaming, or cussing. It's amazing how an articulate take down can bring someone to their knees and let them know how ignorant they are, and that they stepped to the wrong person. Love is not abusive. The precedence should never be set to allow someone to think verbal or physical abuse is okay. As far as this storyline....Nope...As far as I am concerned the writers opened the door to lay the seeds for a start of an abusive relationship. Lots of women end up in abusive relationships that start with a man yelling at them and then the apologies / pattern start. Yes, I know women can be abusive too but statistics show more women are abused vice being the abuser. @@katrinabryant9873
Honestly, after Spencer snapped at Trina like that, especially after she had every right to be uncomfortable with Esme around Spencer after everything Esme did to Trina. And Trina stood up for herself, my first thought was go Trina, you don't deserve that bs treatment from him.
This was a rough day for Sprina fans. Spencer needs to see a therapist quick. I guess the writers are setting up for his exit.
I was thinking the same thing about his temporary exit

@@nollonhatchett5873I loved today!! At this point I’m mostly watching gh for this pairing and this was the story finally moving forward. Couples fight. This was a good one.

If he wants to continue playing daddy, he’s going to have to be in a relationship with 🤮.
@@vjones4769 I disagree with you, my dear. Trina told Spencer a few days ago that eventually Esme & Ace will not be living with Laura for long. He was not listening and when she said finally, she is moving, Spencer got pissed. He needs to go back and review when he said it was going to be temporary when he moved in with his grandma to help out. He was lying, he was already getting attached and didn't realize it or want to admit it. But what about Trina's reaction when he rushes off when they are on a date or Esme interrupts them at Laura. Trina asked him will this be forever, and he said no. Spencer knew Trina did not like being around Esme but did not mind being around Ace. Trina should have gotten some counseling from that drug Esme gave her (dangerous drug).
Spencer needs therapy for all those unresolved issues he has bottled up inside. I completely understand he’s attached since he’s been helping raise Ace and has been been with him practically every day of his little life but he needs to work WITH Esme, not against her. Acting barbaric like he has ownership over Ace and control over what Esme does with HER son isn’t the way. I also get why Trina saying ‘finally’ may have rubbed him the wrong way but he shouldn’t have yelled at her and insinuated he would pick Ace over her, especially since Trina never and would never make him choose her over his little brother.
I hope Trina keeps her distance for a bit and they don’t let this situation go with some weak apology on Spencer’s part. This drama with Ace/Esme needs to be resolved once and for all and Spencer needs to get a life preferably a hobby or a job.
1. I’m SO glad Trina didn’t give Spencer the satisfaction of having the power to “chose” her or Ace. 🤬
2. Spencer needs to take the base out his voice bc who are you yelling at like that.
3. I blame Spencer and all his enablers aka everyone that encouraged this BS with Spencer and Ace/Esme
4. Dex no one asked for your opinion so please be quiet
5. Welp we didn’t have to worry about Portia or Esme after all bc Spencer f**ked this up all on his own.
6. Ya know…. Sprina is the most popular couple on GH and has been bringing folks back to watching and even new folks watching bc of them. So what exactly are we doing GH? Like you couldn’t just let them be for a while and just have regular relationship drama?
7. That kid isn’t a Cassadine so this is gonna get really dumb
8. If Esme got a restraining order out on Spencer I wouldn’t even be mad and I would support it
10. Being a Sprina fan is hard 😢
11. Spencer will need to do lots of begging if he’s gonna come back from this. I’m just at a loss. 🫣😓
Why did Dex jump into the conversation? Trina & Joss turned their heads at the same time (that was funny).
@@marshagreen9759 it was so funny 😂. I was like ummm sir … check with us to make sure you’re saying the right thing lol
Well said. like I was on this sprina choo choo train n nw I jus feel like coming off for a break rn so disappointed in spencer swear like he needs help😢
@@tipsy5806 he definitely needs help. Intense therapy. Yeah I thought about a break too lol. I’m so invested lol. It’s such a rollercoaster.
@@marshagreen9759 Right like he has nothing to do with this. If Cam was there, he would have plenty to say because he would calm Spencer down. BatDex only met Esme once, so he has no leg to stand on
Run Trina as fast as you can, he’s a immature boy a child, don’t like your mother Trina but your mom was right about him you’re to good for him, he is nothing but a walking ball of entitlement and hurt for you, “run” find you a man that is into you and you only.
Just say you're a Portia supporter and let it be that. Second, stop putting people under one umbrella. To say that's why people like him because of his looks is pretty juvenile.
And if you're gonna get on here and speak about mental abuse then you should know what Portia is, and has done to Trina. She is a narcissist who used emotionally abusive tactics on both her daughter and Spencer. That would make her abusive.
Lastly, this situation needed to happen. because of Spencer's abandonment issues, and him being a victim of mental and emotional abuse by both his father and Esme it was only a matter of time before he would hit this point. Spencer is letting his emotions cloud his judgement. He was blind sided by his grandmother whose been acting shady asf as of late. Then to top it off she's been siding with a woman who abused him and violated her other grandson and almost sent the love of his life to prison, so of course he's angry.
With that said, it doesn't take a genius to see the forest through the trees that Spencer is spiraling. He's held in this anger for a very long time. Spencer isn't a bad guy, he's a victim of abuse; something that happens in a lot of households, unfortunately, including relationships. What's going on has been headed in this direction for some time now. Everyone that's been close to him either screwed him over, lied, or died; his father being the biggest betrayal. So it's only natural he's going to cling to Ace. Ace helps fill that void of abandonment, but he also knows it's not feasible/sustainable. It's another reason why he lashed out. Anxiety, and fear of abandonment was the driving force behind his emotional state today. And he'll find out soon enough that Esme is screwing with him as she did yesterday. But let me make something clear, this is a LOVE STORY whether you like it or not. And Spencer needs therapy. Trina made the right decision. But as NAC said, they're endgame, so i expect a lot of apologizing along with him reasessing who he is and who he wants to be. He's gotta hit bottom in order to get better. THAT'S the reality here. As for Esme, it's already been established, he doesn't give a shit about her. It's Trina and Ace. Over and out.
P.S. Anybody who wants to see the response from Sprina fans of today's scenes, head over to Twitter and i guarantee most of us didn't have a problem with what happened today, because it needed to.
Yes, this is a spiral for Spencer for sure. He’s sabotaging himself. And yes this probably needs to happen so that we can move beyond this storyline and just have regular drama. But this is alot at once lol. We waited two years for a kiss then months for them to be intimate, all the while them as a couple ducking and dodging Esme and Portia. They just face obstacle after obstacle after obstacle… it’s maddening as a fan. Yes, I think we’re all clear that Spencer loves Trina. I’m glad he’s said it multiple times and now we have witnesses. I get Spencer’s abandonment issues and him trying to restory his own abandonment using Ace. Girl it’s just a lot. I wish Courtney was around to help him. He would have been a totally diff person is she lived.
I did enjoy Anna slapping Valentin tho lol.
Exactly!!
@@CJ3581 Yeah, he's also dealing with CPTSD as well. Some of us talked about this several months ago after regarding how he's quick to anger. So anyone thinking this attitude by him was intentional or he was being an ass on purpose, please step back and reassess how he's always checked his tone with Trina. The only time he raised his voice was at the High-Sider bar, and even then you could tell he was on edge.
@@blackbutterfly3364 I still would have told him to take the base out his voice lol (trauma response or not). I’m just getting whiplash from the highs and lows in their relationship. It would be nice if they sent Spencer to therapy to deal with his issues. My concern with this writing is that it’s just gonna make Spencer appear to be an ass and no one is gonna address this so it will just turn into Spencer’s villain origin story. It will go into the agenda of Esme being redeemed 😒.
With that being said, I’m so proud of Trina for speaking her mind and not giving Spencer the power to “chose”.
@@CJ3581 No excuse, we're all on the same page with this. I don't see Esme as redeemed I think she said all of that bs to unnerve Spencer yesterday. This is Spencer going dark with Trina as his light. Before redemption comes repentance. Spencer has been keeping his anger at bay and it has to be dealt with.
The Cassadine blood in Spencer will be his downfall. Unfortunately, he will put the nail in the coffin of “Sprina” when he uses the evidence that his uncle left. Can I say how I dislike that TPTB slow-burn their relationship, got us on board, rooted for them, to just break them up?
He's going to do something stupid. I hope he doesn't hurt anybody.
The writers really hate this couple. They’re even willing to make us hate them together, to push this Esme and Ace stupid storyline. Why do that have this particular couple on their 💩 list so bad? Spencer would’ve never spoken to Trina like that. Where are the writers from the strike?
I have never liked this adult Spencer. His cousin Sam said his behavior was cute when he was a kid, now it's annoying. Trina makes him digestible. I watched him when he came to town. And there was nothing there. Trina brought out the better qualities in him. He needs to leave town and regroup.
@sassyfrass9102, I am upset and mad at Spencer, but I will never ever be for Esme. She drugged Trina & Oz, and that drug is one of the #1 drugs in my state that has killed many folks, including a friend of mine 4 years ago. GH can keep pushing the Esme & Ace storyline until it goes over that cliff. Spencer & Trina are very young and will have some more downs in this relationship. Many folks are jealous of the chemistry and popularity of SPRINA (Point Blank). They rocked it in NYC, but they rock it with all their scenes. I am Team SPRINA to the end.
@@marshagreen9759 I wish I could like this comment multiple times. 🫶🏾
@@sassyfrass1103 I wish they were back in NYC in room 192. They have not been back for only a week or two and they are out of love. GH is testing us SPRINA fans, and I am about to flunk this dam test. I hate tests like this, trying to slide Esme into our orbit of loving Trina & Spencer. It is not working, and GH knows it.
I used to enjoy Trina and spencer scenes I don’t anymore their relationship was once fun to watch and follow now it’s a strange game of Trina feeling in competition with a baby. I’m glad she broke up with him because spencer is not ready for a committed relationship with her. Who tells their girlfriend to not make them choose between her and a baby she won’t like the answer this has to be the most ridiculous storyline I have ever seen. Also why did they have this conversation in dex apartment with josslyn and him present that was also really weird. November sweeps with gh has been awful so far.
I was thinking the same thing. I no longer enjoy their scenes. I know this is a soap, but my lord.
I don’t think these scenes are bad at all. We can’t expect just roses every time they’re on screen. Couples fight and get back together.
It wasn't too bad. A lot of the polarity is because of holding on too tight. I've been around since Monica was a scrub nurse married to Jeff Webber, but still in love with Rick and that mess bled all the way to her marriage to Alan. Messy! It's soaps. I'm not afraid of the pen. I can take it, leave it. But the passion of that fight makes me want to stick around. Not to be eye-abused, but to see the characters grow. Spencer has miles to go. He may never get there. But he will always remember Trina as the greatest love of his life. If he forgets, the fans won't.
@lexi6797
I get it, except for the last two years. It's been more drama with these two than happy boy friend girl friend stuff. I keep waiting for that, and it seems like it's never come.
I understand that. This is why I will not drag any comment that suggests they end because one can only take so much. I have lines in the sand too. My level is close. Two things I will not watch and remain hopeful is Trina enduring abuse for Sprina breadcrumbs.
Why I say I'm a TrinaFF is because I don't care what Spencer does in his messy manic state if the show is going to trivialize to "soapy angst" and promote "endgame for Sprina, just watch wait and see"
I'm nearly 50 years in history for this show, and I'm not that stupid to believe Spencer is going to become interesting with Esme and then find his way back to Trina healed with a whole bunch of kids from that psycho who will never see justice. @@teresajefferson3095
I think trina needs a new man tired of this esme storyline it's frustrating. I love #Sprina but guys this storyline makes me sick. Seeing Spencer raise his voice like that at trina pisses me off.
Spencer you and Esme are a nutcase I hope Trina never comes back to you.
💯 percent agree
Facts💯
Well i have to comment today was F@@@ up for me I am speechless the yelling at her. and when she left he just seems not to care .
Spencer seemed not to care when Trina left but he cares.
@@marshagreen9759 oh Ms Marsha I hope so I know we love them but Spencer was a total ass here
he is still in manic, when he comes down he's going lose it@@marshagreen9759
@@loulou-fx9fu Sweetie, I know (Old School), he cares, and he knows she was not only pissed but hurt. He didn't know how to react, because he thought she was going to cry and bow her head down. This is 2023 for all women in the house and not 1923, we have a voice and will use it. Trina also knew what Joss had said about shouting. I think Spencer is thinking about a lot of things right now. They will make it as a couple, they both have to get on the same page and communicate is the key, kiss and makeup and hold each other.
@@marshagreen9759 ok Ms Marsha
Whoo! These comments did NOT disappoint. For or against, folks had some serious smoke for these scenes! Carry on...
Who asked Dex to put in his 2cents! Go breaks some knees and Kick rocks Dex!😂😅
Time to earn Trina Spencer- either you love and put her First or… you fill in the blank! Love the two of you together♥️- as for yelling at Trina, NEVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!
I'd tell Spencer that apparently you've forgotten the fact that witch framed me for revenge porn and tried to get me sent to prison
I'm glad that Trina got all the clarity that she needed today from Spencer, she know for a fact now that she's always gonna be second place when it comes to Ace because of Esme using him for her shenanigans. I'm also very proud of her for standing her ground and giving Spencer the break the deserves. She's still better than me cause i would've broke it off right there and then.
Spencer has a lot of mental issues due to his father and I'm very confused as to why no one sees this. Him latching onto Ace is him protecting "himself" as a neglected child. I'm not saying that he doesn't love his brother but it's clearly more about him and Nikolaus and the lasting damage Nikolaus' selfishness and neglect has caused Spencer.
A lot of people act that just because Spencer is an adult now that he should just man up. But that's the problem. He's still a young adult and he will carry that neglect for the rest of his life. He needs a lot of therapy to be able to get over it. Boy was acting unhinged about Ace's changed appt. Not one person has suggested he see a therapist on the show and it's mind boggling. Only when he can fix his issues can he be in his best place to be a good partner to Trina. Trina can empathize and support him, but she cannot fix his problems for him.
'I don't love Esme, I love you'... minus Ace' 😶. Is this Cassadine's so called love ?
Spence, how dare you yell at Trina, the best thing that ever happened to you ? Who always stand by you even against momma Portia ? Who was willing to risk everything and die for you to save you from your madman uncle Victor? Who has been excessively patient with your questionable cohabitation with 🤐? Whom you should worship as 'the love of your life'? And I could keep going on, and on, and on, about all the qualities that woman has displayed for more that 2 years now... to get this 🤯 from you? What are the writers doing with this character?
On a positive note, Queen Trina epitomized the Christabel Pankhurst best quote : 'Remember the dignity of your womanhood. Do not appeal, do not beg, do not grovel. Take courage, join hands, stand beside us, fight with us!” -
OOO WEE If Spencer Ever Raised His Voice To Me Like That I Would’ve Cussed Him Out! 😡
*Oh...HELLLLLLLL...No!!!* My neck is rolling! My eyes is rolling! I'm Rolling!!! No TF Spencer didn't speack to Trinia like that! That MoFo done lost his Eva loving mind! I love them together but Gurl, drop his Dusty ass!!! And Dex, ain't nobody asked you for a Amen! Mind Ya Business you Jason Click and Paste 😑
Wow at the end Spencer doesn’t even looked like the love of his life didn’t just walk out on him and he might loose her 🤨
I thought the same thing. But I don’t think he’s fully realized that she actually walked out. He’s still so focused on losing Ace, which is why I think next week we HAVE to watch him pleading with ole girl. Spencer’s full breakdown hasn’t happened yet.! It’s the start of the unraveling
He did make it clear who he would choose.
@@katrinabryant9873 YES they’re a COUPLE they love eachother 🛑 being a hater and remove yourself
@@katrinabryant9873 but in comes across like your agreeing with Spencer behaviour
What the hell did I just witness? Is Sprina over?😢😞
It looks like GH is ending them or having us to think so.
I hope not but it ain’t looking too good. They’re stressing me out.
I think it's just another hurdle that they will overcome.
@@JoseConnelly 🤞🏽
@@JoseConnelly How many hurdles do they have to overcome or jump through? Maybe this will be his exit to his new movie.
Hate to say it but violence starts with verbal abuse. He is really out of control. Women don't need to tolerate his level of disrespect.
Now he's screaming in her face so GH can prop up Esme and Ace. Really??
I dont know about this. The way Spencer talked to Trina…..NOP. IF IT WERE ME , I WOULD WALK AWAY FROM IT ALL. Trina has gone through too much. GH get it together. I am sick of the Esme mess and this crazy, obsessed Spencer.
I hate to say this, but I just don't like when Spencer and Trina are going to breakup, they we're supposed to Love each other. Spencer didn't have to yell at Trina Robinson like that, that is so Disrespectful.
There's something being told about these Cassadine men and their offspring and relatives...Look at the Valentin /Anna shoots Charlotte sl that's running parallel to Spina/Ace. The over protective parental presence, nearly obsessed with the kids, hiding vital information from and betraying the people they say they love to "protect" the child. Valentine and Spencer are a wild mirror right now. I don't know enough details about the Cassadine family history except that they were rich and crazy!😂Victor showed us a lot. He kidnapped Ace and Spencer in his obsession to control the family & the world. These men are from that SAME bloodline... So. who knows what Spencer or Valentin may do behind these children. Valentin just destroyed his relationship with Anna by not telling her that it was Charlotte terrorizing her. He just "wanted to be a good father" to her and protect her. Spencer is saying similar things. This father /child trauma goes way back with them.
It's a pattern. Isolation, coddling, overindulgence, entitlement.
Hopefully we see at least one of his family members suggest therapy before they’re talking around him and not too him they are also apart of the problem
Spencer is behaving exactly how I'd expect the heir of the Cassidine(Corinthos) fortune to behave! An Arrogant, spoiled, entitled, elitist, power hungry, snob with severe abandonment issues!
If Laura doesn't reign him in or Courtney doesn't make a heavenly visit then he's going to be worse than his Cassidine predecessors! None of this is up to Trina or should fall on Trina because it is not her responsibility to parent Spencer he is not a child he's an adult! It makes for a very unpredictable, unhealthy, volatile and unwise relationship.....
I couldn't agree more. He's dangerous when he's out of control. This is not me projecting his predecessors on him, but his actions.
TO JUST BE CLEAR SPRINA DID NOT BREAK UP TRINA HAS WALK OUT BEFORE THEY WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN DONT WORRY ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️
You know you are correct, she has walked out before.
Her best friend didn't even go after her.
Trina need to dump him… I’m sorry
Spencer Lower Your Voice! She’s On Your Side And Always Supported You! 🙎🏾♂️
Who cares Spencer im so sick of you and esme and all yall drama all the hell Trina has been through with you trina you need to run
Trina has a whole army around her.. trina better not went home crying cuz if she does spencer is in trouble smh I do feel like she should give him a break rn 😢
He gives me Tom Cruise vibes. 😂
