General Hospital News – Several Walks Down Memory Lane

First up is Dr. Steve Hardy (John Beradino), in an early scene shown in black and white. Then a scene from Scotty Baldwin (Kin Shriner) and Laura Webber’s (Genie Francis) first wedding is shown. Then, as Bobbie in the present day says: “I think we like the drama maybe a little bit,” a classic scene is shown of Dr. Lesley Webber slapping Monica in the face!

Longtime General Hospital viewers will recall that Lesley won out. Then we come back to the present day with Monica and Lesley walking down a hallway at General Hospital. Bobbie is shown hugging someone in obvious distress.

The last scene shows Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) dancing, as Carly in the present day says in the background: “And we’re still here after all this time!” Sonny is shown, saying: “Thank God for General Hospital!”
