Laura’s Relieved Over Ezra’s Shirley Temple

While at the Metro Court with Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening), Laura noticed Ezra at the bar.

She approached him to see how he was doing and laughed when she saw he was drinking Shirley Temples- reminding him that he could rely on her if he needed support.

After returning to her table, Laura shared with Lulu what had occurred when she helped Ezra at the Brown Dog.

Lulu believed the town should be aware that a councilman was losing control, but Laura persuaded her daughter to leave Ezra be. Ezra came to their table, offering to cover their bill as a way to thank Laura.

Lulu Tried To Intimidate Ezra Over Her Mother’s Political Initiatives, He Said There Was No Need

The mayor suggested he could return the favor by backing her next initiative, and Lulu hinted that if he didn’t, she would investigate his connections to the Brown Dog Bar and his interest in escorts.

Ezra replied that there was no need for that, as Laura’s initiatives were well-liked by the voters, so supporting her would benefit him.

After Ezra departed, Laura inquired about Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr), and Lulu sighed, mentioning that her son had been distant lately, troubled by Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) ever since Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) was arrested.

Lulu expressed her gratitude for having “Nathan West” (Ryan Paevey) to support her, calling him the best thing that’s happened to her in a long time.

Valentin Came To A Fearful Conclusion

In Carly Spencer’s (Laura Wright) attic, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) confronted Valentin with inquiries about Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Cesar Faison (Anders Hove).

She revealed that during the blizzard, Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) had a copy of Faison’s book, The Crystalline Conspiracy, along with a pack of the villain’s cigarillos.

Valentin deduced that the WSB director was probably responsible for Anna’s mental breakdown.

Annoyed, he exclaimed that he must be missing a link because the timeline didn’t make sense, as Cullum was in Port Charles when Anna was taken in France.

Completely losing it, Valentin promised to make Cullum suffer if he had driven Anna mad by exploiting her deepest fear (i.e., Faison).

Josslyn Suspected Nathan Was Working With Sidwell, And Asked Valentin’s Opinion

After calming Valentin, Josslyn shared her suspicion that Nathan was working with Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and that Faison had planned the detective’s disappearance years ago.

Unsure of Nathan’s involvement, Valentin told Josslyn to avoid him, reminding her that her mother was worried. Joss then got a mysterious call and got ready to leave.

As she left, Joss replied that she heard Valentin’s warning but might not follow it, making him anxious about her risky choice.

Alone again, Valentin called the French clinic where Anna was being treated, pretending to be Dr. Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom), and asked for details about the patient.

Emma And Gio Met With Michael James Scott, Gio Invited Him To Port Charles

Emma Scorpio-Drake (Braedyn Bruner) and Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) had the opportunity to meet with Michael James Scott backstage following their experience watching Aladdin.

During their conversation, Gio made a generous offer to link his friend with Curtis Ashford ( Donnell Turner) so that Michael could travel to Port Charles and perform at The Savoy.

In a later moment of reflection, Emma expressed her gratitude to Gio for assisting her in distracting herself from all the tumultuous events surrounding Anna, even if just for a brief period of time.

This allowed the delighted couple to grow even closer together. They spent some romantic time in their hotel room when they got there.

Felicia Had A Job For Liesl

Felicia Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) set up a meeting at the Metro Court Garden with Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati), who had just come back from New Zealand.

Felicia revealed that she had received word from Robin Scorpio-Drake (Kimberly McCullough) about Anna’s worsening condition.

She explained that Anna was convinced her doctors were in league with Faison and that Liesl was part of the plot. Felicia wanted Obrecht to accompany her to France to help change Anna’s mind.

However, Liesl refused, believing that her involvement would only exacerbate the situation and might lead Anna to think Felicia was against her.

Liesl Praised Felicia For Her Determination Regarding The Matter

Liesl praised Felicia for her determination to reach Anna and expressed her understanding of Anna’s mental state, noting that if anyone could come back from the dead, it would be Faison.

When Felicia questioned whether there was any possibility that Faison was indeed alive, Liesl admitted that it troubled her that Anna claimed to have seen him. But she hoped for her children’s sake that Anna was mistaken.

Later, Josslyn intercepted Liesl as she was exiting the restaurant. She asked if the doctor still thought someone was impersonating Faison-perhaps even her son.

Cassius Was Offended That Britt Thought He’d Turn Over Rocco To Cullum

Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) called Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) to her room and surprised him with the revelation that Rocco had admitted to her that he shot Cullum.

Cassius remained indifferent when Britt expressed that Rocco’s guilt was overwhelming him, pointing out that his guilty conscience would be the least of the teen’s issues if he couldn’t keep quiet.

Cassius instructed Britt to focus on the prototype while he took care of Rocco’s protection, but Britt sought reassurance that her brother wouldn’t eventually turn Rocco in to gain favor with Cullum.

Upset, Cassius retorted that he had removed Rocco from the crime scene and made it clear to both the teen and Lulu that the truth must remain hidden.

Britt, however, suggested that this was exactly the kind of thing their father would do if he intended to use Rocco as leverage.

Cassius Swore He Didn’t Want Cullum To Find Out What Rocco Knew

Cassius insisted he wouldn’t let Cullum know Rocco knew he was a double agent and promised to protect Lulu’s son.

When Britt wanted to help Cassius keep Rocco safe, her brother warned her that Cullum might use her connection with Rocco against her-he said he and Lulu would support Rocco.

Britt then told Cassius he couldn’t keep lying to Lulu about who he was and should break up with her for Rocco’s sake.

“When she finds out who you are, it will ruin you,” Britt warned; Cassius said he loved Lulu and would stay as “Nathan” for as long as needed to keep her.

Britt criticized him for not having a long-term plan and warned that the truth would come out; “If you really love Lulu, you need to end it,” Britt insisted-“Now”.
