Today on General Hospital – Justine And Jordan Discussed Sonny

On her way to yoga class, Justine ran into Jordan and asked the former police commissioner about some cold cases involving Sonny. (Make sure to check out our weekly GH spoilers, here!)

Since Sonny had been questioned in many cases but only convicted once, Justine wondered if he had become the PCPD’s go-to suspect, often letting the real criminal escape, and if he wasn’t as bad as she had been led to think.

Jordan scoffed at Justine’s apparent sympathy for Sonny, warning her that he was not an innocent man.

She pointed out that it was easy to be charmed by Sonny, but it was also a serious mistake. And most especially if you got in the way of something he desired.

Jordan Gave Justine Advice

And there was one major thing that Justine thought Sonny would want from her. “Do you think he’s trying to use me to protect his son in Drew Cain’s shooting?”

Justine wondered. She went on to mention that there was inadmissible evidence in Drew’s shooting that made her doubt whether a case against Michael would even reach trial.

She stated that Sonny would have no influence over the D.A. office’s choice to prosecute Michael. Still, knowing how far Sonny would go to protect his children, Jordan advised her to do the opposite of whatever Sonny suggested.

Chase Overstepped

At Bobbie’s, Harrison  Chase (Josh Swickard) overheard Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos) talking about her interview with Michael.

He pressed her for details, but she dodged the questions and left when Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) arrived. Back at the table, Chase thought Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) would support him, but she said he went too far.

When he remarked that everyone involved with Michael was related, she reminded him that he was as well and questioned why he couldn’t drop it.

They argued, and Brook Lynn accused him of being so focused on Michael that he missed other suspects.

Molly Talked To Her Father About Her Argument With Cody

In the diner, Molly shared with Ric about her argument with Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) over her book. She complained that Cody wouldn’t have felt insulted if he hadn’t read her manuscript without asking.

Ric suggested that her words likely brought out Cody’s insecurities, and he advised Molly to make the first move to reconcile.

Molly replied that Ric should follow his own advice and contact Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst), but he mentioned he had been rejected before and didn’t want to jeopardize their current friendship.

Molly Encouraged Her Dad to Try Again With Elizabeth

Molly then told her dad that she appreciated how Elizabeth recognized his potential, and maybe she could help him see it too.

Later, at the hospital, Liz noticed Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) with a lovely flower arrangement and was surprised to find out they were from Ric. He arrived and asked her to dinner, and she happily accepted.

Needless to say, Ric was pleased. With Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson) no longer in town, maybe he’ll have more success.

Michael Caught Up Sonny And Carly

Carly and Sonny met Michael in the Quartermaine kitchen, where he informed them about a custody agreement he reached with his ex-wife.

Carly was confused as to why Michael would negotiate with Willow at all. He explained to her that he was under investigation for shooting Drew and didn’t want to risk the new judge favoring Willow and granting her full custody.

He confided that it was either make a deal with Willow or leave the country with the kids. Michael expressed his frustration about giving Willow any visitation, but the kids wanted to see their mother.

Chase And Brook Lynn Entered The Room, Making Things Test

Then, while discussing Michael’s meeting with Molly and Nathan West (Ryan Paevey), Carly questioned if he had omitted anything that the police might discover, but Michael assured her there was nothing more to reveal.

Recalling Justine’s statement that she would not personally prosecute Michael, Sonny reassured his son that he wouldn’t be held accountable for the crime.

The atmosphere became tense when Chase and Brook Lynn entered the kitchen, prompting Michael to escort his mother out.

Brook Lynn and Sonny then moved to another room to discuss Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza), leaving Chase by himself in the kitchen.

Noticing Michael’s keys on the table, Chase remembered Molly mentioning earlier that Michael had no way to access Drew’s house, and he picked up the key ring.

Curtis Came To Alexis For A Court Order

At Miller & Davis, Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) asked Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) for help with a court order for a paternity test.

After revealing Portia’s pregnancy in court, Alexis didn’t want to force her into a test-Curtis, though disappointed, understood and asked if he could compel Portia to take one.

Alexis said he could, as long as it didn’t endanger the baby, but advised against it, saying it would complicate things and hurt their co-parenting.

Curtis felt stuck until he knew if the baby was his. He didn’t want to miss out on time with this baby like he did with Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali), since Portia hadn’t been honest then; Alexis suggested he talk to Portia first.

Portia Returned To Work, On Probation

Portia returned to work on probation, no longer co-chief of staff. When she and Isaiah heard nurses gossiping, she said it would blow over and that they had nothing to hide since she wasn’t his boss anymore.

But when they joked about commuting from his cabin, she worried they were moving too fast-Isaiah reassured her he wasn’t having doubts and just wanted her happiness.

Later, Portia told Elizabeth she felt at peace with Isaiah and that this pregnancy was easier than her last with Trina, which had coincided with her divorce from Marcus Taggert (Réal Andrews).

Things were tricky with Curtis, who wanted a paternity test, but she wanted to enjoy her pregnancy without stress.

Lucas Empathized With Isaiah, While Curtis Pressured Portia For The Paternity Test

Meanwhile, Lucas empathized with Isaiah about the staff gossiping; having faced similar issues with Brad Cooper (Parry Shen), Lucas offered to listen if Isaiah needed to talk.

Isaiah said there were no problems yet and hoped Curtis wouldn’t complicate things if the baby was his. Lucas advised Isaiah to keep the peace, believing Curtis would prioritize the baby’s well-being, and Portia would appreciate that.

Later, while Lucas was talking to Portia, Curtis showed up-Lucas overheard Curtis giving Portia a week to take the paternity test or face a court order.

Angry, Portia declared she would do it her way and dared Curtis to get the court order if he disagreed.

Willow Brought Drew Home

At the hospital, Drew was ready to go home-Liz ensured that Willow understood what she was taking on by caring for her husband at home.

But Willow insisted she was the only one who could provide what he needed at that moment. Since Drew couldn’t speak, Lucas explained to him that one blink meant yes and two blinks meant no.

When Willow asked Drew if he was ready to go home, he blinked once. After that, an orderly wheeled Drew onto the elevator, and the Cains went home.

Kai Explained Things To Trina

At the Cain residence, Trina was upset that Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) was in charge of delivering medical supplies for Drew’s care.

She found the whole situation suspicious and wanted Kai to quit his internship, but he believed he needed to stay to ensure Drew was safe from Willow.

Just as Trina finished expressing her fears about Willow being dangerous and unpredictable, Willow came home.

When Willow asked Kai to assist the attendant in bringing Drew in through the back door, Trina left through the front, wanting to avoid any conflict.

Acting as the caring wife, Willow expressed to Kai how much it meant to her to have Drew back home.

Trina And Kai Reported To Alexis, Willow Told Drew She Shot Him!

After leaving Drew’s, Trina and Kai headed to Miller & Davis, and Alexis was surprised to learn that Willow was taking care of Drew at home.

For Scout Cain’s (Cosette Abinante) benefit, she was grateful that Kai chose to stay on as Drew’s intern to monitor the situation. But she urged them to contact her right away if they noticed anything unusual.

Meanwhile, after the attendant helped Drew into the bedroom and departed, Willow approached her husband. With a single blink confirming he could hear her, Willow told Drew that she was the one who had shot him!
