Liz: Victim or Hypocrite?

When exactly does a so-called victim become a full-fledged hypocrite? How long do the lies have to continue before the transformation? How many people have to get hurt before admitting it's all their own fault?

Those are the questions Elizabeth Webber should be asking herself. In today's episode, she had the perfect opportunity to come clean with Lucky about her affair with Nikolas, but inside she decided to keep her mouth shut.

When Lucky said he had heard the conversation the adulterers were having at the hospital, I thought for sure she wouldn't be able to take the guilt and fess up. Unfortunately, Liz decided it was more important to save herself than to admit what she had done.

Not only did she continue to lie to Lucky, but then she went to see Nikolas to tell him to keep her lie. Nikolas is professing his love for her and all she can do is ask him to keep lying to Lucky.

I get that she thinks she wants a life with Lucky, but in reality, I don't think Liz really knows what she wants. Even when she was confronting Nikolas, she never once told him she didn't love him or that she was wrong, just that "I'm not going to blow apart my life for anyone and I'm going to lie until the day I die to preserve our relationship." She doesn't even realize she's doing that all on her own and it's literally all her fault.

Liz put herself in this situation when she went to Nik the night Lucky proposed and slept with Nik for the first time. It would be a totally different story had she not accepted Lucky's marriage proposal a few hours later. Maybe if she had been honest with Lucky from the beginning about loving him, but not being IN love with him none of this would be happening.

We all know eventually the lies and secrets are going to come out, but which of the players will be hurt the most. I have a feeling it won't be Liz. As usual, she won't be the one that has to pay for her actions; at least not for long - she never does. Maybe, just maybe this time Liz will be called out for what she is - a lying, hypocritical, two-timing bitch.

Any bets on which one of the women of Port Charles will be the first to call her out on it when the truth finally comes out? Sam? Carly? Maxie? Lulu? Robin?

Personally, I'd like for it to be Lulu or Robin, then for once the haters can't throw anything Sam, Carly or Maxie has done in the past. Just a thought.
