Chase Encounters Judge Heran At Bobbie’s

While grabbing a coffee at Bobbie’s, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) encountered Judge Eva Heran (Tessa Auberjonois) and seized the chance to advocate for Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen).

Judge Heran discussed some theoretical factors that a judge would consider in a case similar to Willow’s. Chase expressed his belief that his friend would receive a fair hearing due to the judge’s esteemed reputation for impartiality. (Make sure to check out our weekly GH spoilers, here!)

As soon as Chase left the restaurant, Judge Heran placed a call, notifying the other party that a detective was inquiring about the Corinthos case. She wanted to ensure her interests were protected and they had her back.

Willow revealed that she had reconciled with Drew, as he was going to assist her in regaining custody of her children. Liz attempted to reason with her friend, but her words fell on deaf ears.

Willow expressed that she felt she had no alternatives, and hesitated when Liz inquired if she still had feelings for Drew. “Yes. No. It doesn’t matter,” Willow asserted, believing that reclaiming her children was all that truly counted.

Willow Continued To Explain Her Decision To Elizabeth

With stars in her eyes, Willow exclaimed that Drew stopping her from talking to Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) in Germany showcased his extensive influence and demonstrated that he always gets his way.

However, Elizabeth complained that this behavior was repulsive and merely a form of bribery. She cautioned Willow that she was compromising her integrity, but Willow insisted that she had removed her blinders and fully understood what she was facing with Drew.

“I would willingly exchange my soul for my children; what mother wouldn’t?” she declared, effectively ending the discussion by reiterating that Drew was her best choice.

Later, Willow talked to Chase, but before she could reveal her significant decision, he eagerly shared that he had encountered Judge Heran at Bobbie’s and had exciting news for her.

Doctors Without Boundaries-Portia And Isaiah Have Sex In Her Office

Portia and Isaiah Gannon’s (Sawandi Wilson) passionate kiss led to them making love on the couch in her office. Afterwards, Isaiah picked up the wedding photo of Portia and Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) from the floor and handed it to her, she quickly placed it on her desk.

Once they both acknowledged that their encounter was unplanned, Portia retrieved her wedding band from the floor, and Isaiah inquired if she had any regrets.

In a somewhat uncomfortable moment, Portia reminded Dr. Gannon that she was his superior, and they shouldn’t have engaged in intimacy in her office. This took place just moments before Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) walked in.

Portia Revealed Drew’s Blackmail To Trina

After Isaiah found a reason to leave, Trina — feeling distressed about the conflict at home involving her parents and Aunt Stella Henry’s (Vernee Watson) arrest had questions.

She insisted that her mother explain what had caused the trouble with Drew. Finally, Portia disclosed that Drew was blackmailing them with evidence that she had tampered with Heather Webber’s (Alley Mills) blood tests to keep the serial killer imprisoned and away from Trina.

With tears welling in her eyes, Portia elaborated to her daughter about how her hidden truths had put a strain on her relationship with Curtis.

By the time they had resolved to confront Drew together, their marriage was already unstable; they embraced as Portia assured her that regardless of the circumstances, they would always love her.

Isaiah Comes Back To Check On Portia

Later, Isaiah went back to Portia’s office to see how she was doing, and she admitted that she had confided in Trina. Taking her hand, he expressed his regret if he had made her day any more difficult.

Portia responded that he was not at fault, explaining that her marriage had already been beyond saving long before Isaiah entered her life. “Everything — my marriage, Trina, Stella, all of it — can be attributed to Drew Cain,” she exclaimed. The blackmail had been going on for quite some time, long before Isaiah came to Port Charles.

Kai’s Eyes Are Opened To What And Who Drew Is

As Curtis confronted Drew about alerting the authorities regarding Aunt Stella, Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) overheard their entire discussion from the hallway outside the congressman’s office.

Subsequently, he began to view his mentor differently (specifically, the way everyone else had been cautioning him). The argument between the two men escalated, and Curtis ultimately declared that he would prefer to see Drew dead than visit Aunt Stella in jail-he then walked out calmly.

Upon entering Drew’s office, Kai noted that Curtis appeared quite upset; Drew dismissed it as concern for Stella, assuring that he would do everything possible to assist her.

When Kai mentioned that Stella had helped him a lot during his recovery from surgery, Drew stated that he was powerless to act if Stella had engaged in insurance fraud.

Kai Made Some Calls After Drew Left His Office

Shifting the conversation, Drew inquired if Kai had located Carly, to which he replied that she was anticipated to be in her office at the Metro Court until the end of the day.

Drew proposed they end the night, but Kai preferred to remain at the office to complete some research, which earned him praise from the congressman for his dedication.

“Of course. You can always rely on me,” Kai replied; after being left alone, Kai called the fraud division to inquire about the Stella Henry investigation’s progress.

Getting the response he anticipated — or perhaps didn’t — Kai stated that the congressman would be quite happy to learn they were acting on his request, and was quite frustrated after ending the call.

Kai Reveals To Trina That He Regrets Not Believing Drew Is A Monster

Later on, a worked-up Trina showed up to meet Drew, intending to confront him over his blackmail of her mother. Kai told her to save her energy, revealing that Drew had Stella arrested merely to spite Curtis; “And how does that make you feel?” Trina asked. “I feel foolish for not heeding your advice sooner,” Kai confessed.

He admitted he at last recognized Drew as the corrupt monster he truly is and pledged to do whatever it takes to make amends with the Ashford family. “That’s great,” Trina responded; because I truly need your assistance at this moment”.

Carly Offers Danny And Rocco A Lifeguard Job For Next Summer

After finishing their summer roles as pool attendants, Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) and Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) met with Carly.

She encouraged the boys to come back to the hotel next summer, this time as lifeguards; before they departed, Carly inquired if Danny had heard from Jason Morgan (Steve Burton).

Danny revealed that his dad was on his way home, but it might be best for him to stay away. He explained it was due to the restraining order that Drew had placed on Scout Cain’s (Cosette Abinanti) family. Since Danny is still a minor, he clarified that the restraining order needed to be served to his legal guardian.

Carly Told The Boys Not To Give Drew Any More Ammunition

Danny clarified that as long as Jason was away, he could keep visiting his sister-Carly warned the teens not to provide Drew with any more leverage. Just then, Drew stormed into Carly’s office as if he had been called.

When Danny inquired about the restraining order against Rocco, Drew smugly stated that he wasn’t taking any risks since the boys often hung out together.

He then remarked that Danny was merely Scout’s half-brother and Rocco had no connection to her whatsoever. To prevent the situation from escalating, Carly intervened, telling Drew to back off and guided Rocco and Danny out of her office.

Carly Blasts Drew

As Carly closed the office door behind them, she unleashed her frustration on Drew for removing Danny and Rocco from Scout. This was especially when she needed their support the most during her grieving process for Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco).

Drew suggested that Carly should focus less on Danny and Rocco and more on Michael. He then revealed that an investigation had revealed Judge Heran accepted a $1 million bribe just before ruling in Michael’s favor.

Carly, however, remained composed and refused to take the bait when Drew insisted she persuade Michael to accept his offer and hand over custody to Willow.

Elizabeth Walks In On Carly Threatening To Kill Drew

When Carly tried to eject him from her office, he smugly reminded her that he was the one behind Stella’s legal troubles. And that was just a taste of what he could do to Michael if she didn’t comply.

Going into full mama bear mode, Carly confronted Drew with her own warning: “If you mess with Michael, you mess with my family, and I will take you down myself,” she fumed.

As Drew tilted his head in reaction to Carly’s words, something in the room drew his attention, and he looked up to see Elizabeth at the door. Drew felt a smug sense of satisfaction knowing he had a witness to Carly’s threat, while Carly winced at the idea of what Elizabeth might have heard.

Jordan Supports Stella

In the PCPD interrogation room, Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) waited with Stella for her arraignment. Stella expressed her concern that if Drew continued to provoke Curtis, her nephew might lose control and do something he would regret.

She asked Jordan to help calm Curtis down-after his confrontation with Drew, Curtis arrived at the police station just as Stella and Jordan returned from the arraignment.

Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) had managed to persuade the judge to grant Stella bail; Jordan went to talk to Curtis, who interrupted her. Jordan advised not to let Drew compromise him any further, but Curtis insisted it was already too late for that-angry, he left the room.

Danny And Rocco Spot A Body In The Harbor

After departing from the Metro Court, Danny and Rocco made their way to the docks to hop on Jason’s speedboat. With Drew currently at Carly’s office, Danny was eager to see Scout, but Rocco persuaded him that it was best to keep their distance.

While Danny made a quip about vandalizing Drew’s house later that evening, Rocco spotted something unusual in the water. It was the seemingly lifeless body of Judge Heran, drifting face down! The boys were horrified, realizing it was a body floating in the harbor!

Pascal Chastises Britt

Across the ocean at the Five Poppies, Britt awoke with a throbbing hangover and a nearly empty pitcher of margarita sitting on her nightstand, cursing Jason’s name.

Her headache intensified when Pascal (Marc Forget) called to scold her for not being in the lab yet. After slamming the phone down, she began to exit her room but grabbed the burner phone Jason had given her at the last moment.

“Get over yourself. It’s just a phone, not a symbol of his affection,” Britt grumbled as she shoved the phone into a decorative box.

Britt had earlier made it clear to Jason that she wanted him to leave Dalmatia, and that’s when he gave her the phone. He offered to rescue her from the resort but she refused.

Britt Discovers Joss And Vaughn Captive But Leaves Them

Upon reaching the lab facility, Britt felt suspicious as she caught sight of Pascal and his assistant, Tomas Dujmović (Yoni Nadav), talking outside one of the other rooms.

Pascal insisted that she focus on her research. Yet later, when Britt saw Tomas alone, standing guard in front of another door, she quickly fabricated a reason to lure him away from his post.

With her keycard in hand, Britt entered the room, only to be taken aback by the sight of Josslyn and Vaughn bound and helpless inside! However, when Joss pleaded with Britt to help them escape, she turned and left the room — and the entire lab facility.
