While Robin is away, Dr. Patrick will get drunk and play, with Dr. Lisa! This week on GH, Dr. Steve runs into a medical crisis and is forced to lift Patrick’s suspension. After Patrick and Lisa perform brain surgery on the cancer stricken Shirley, the dynamic duo will get totally loaded and do the shag nasty. Patrick will instantly regret the tryst and confront Lisa the next day. Sadly, someone is going to be ear jacking and hear the whole thing. It will only be a matter of time before Robin finds out. Things will go from bad to worse when it becomes obvious that Lisa isn’t going to let go of Patrick that easily. Is that boiling rabbit I smell?
