Willow Stooped To A New Low

As Nina returned to the Cain house, Willow told Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) that she didn’t like what she had to do to her mother.

But it was necessary to keep custody of Wiley and Amelia Corinthos (Viron Weaver, Serenity and Sequoia Mork Macko).

She then silenced her phone and put it in her pocket; when Nina got there, she was upset to find Drew in the living room.

She complained that Willow needed to stop giving her caregiver so much time off. Willow explained that the caregiver was very helpful, especially since she had been busy, so she didn’t mind giving him some hours off.

Willow Told Nina How Good She Felt About Helping Brook Lynn And Chase Become Foster Parents

She also mentioned that she was helping Brook Lynn and Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) become foster parents, which Nina guessed was to repay Chase for his help during the trial.

Nina shot a glare at Drew and remarked that Brook Lynn got a good one in Chase, questioning if Willow regretted letting him go.

Willow admitted it was wrong to cheat on Chase with Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson), making Chase’s help even more impressive.

Then, Willow took her phone out, saying she kept it on vibrate to avoid bothering Drew, and pretended the CPS woman needed to talk to her.

She asked Nina to give Drew an injection since he was on a strict schedule, then went into another room.

Willow Made An Admission

While grumbling about this, Nina ignored Drew’s frantic blinking and injected him with the syringe.

Willow came back and thanked her mom, ensuring she put the used syringe in a disposal bag, obviously planning to frame her mother.

After taking Drew to the bedroom, Willow went back to ask Nina how it went with Jack Brennan (Chris L. McKenna).

Nina said that using Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) to threaten him worked.

She hoped he would keep the misleading footage secret, which made Willow emotionally admit that the footage wasn’t misleading; it actually showed she was the one who shot Drew!

Lucas And Isaiah Talked About Jordan’s Operation And Isaiah’s Past With Her

In Jordan Ashford’s (Tanisha Harper) hospital room, Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) told Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson), considering his skills and Jordan being a transplant recipient, he wished Isaiah could’ve helped him operate.

However, Isaiah mentioned he wasn’t sure he could have managed that and shared that he and Jordan had previously been together, but they kept it private.

Lucas remarked that Isaiah must still have feelings for Jordan, or else he wouldn’t be there to see her.

Isaiah responded that even though their relationship didn’t last, Jordan was a good person who had saved his life.

Lucas wanted more information, so Isaiah recounted that he had come to Port Charles to help Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), who was being held captive by Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota).

Isaiah Told Lucas Why He Came To Port Charles And How Jordan Saved His Life

Disapproving of Isaiah’s plan, Sidwell hired someone to kill him, and Jordan intervened to save him from the assassination attempt.

Lucas paused for a moment, then remarked that Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) was very different from his father. For Marco’s benefit, he was attempting to view Sidwell as the person he is today.

When Isaiah mentioned he wouldn’t be one of those who label Lucas as a monster, Lucas replied that he was aware of the truth.

Shortly after, Lucas received a notification that Jordan’s lab results were in and left to inform Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner).

Stella Caught Up With Curtis, And Jordan Woke Up

In the meantime, Stella Henry (Verneé Watson) informed Curtis that Jordan was settling into the ICU and that he could visit her shortly.

She also mentioned updating TJ Ashford (most recently Tajh Bellow) about his mother’s situation.

Understanding that her nephew was feeling overwhelmed, Stella took him to a quiet area for a conversation.

Lucas approached them to share that Jordan’s vitals were stable, including her kidney function, and that he could now go see her.

Curtis sat by Jordan’s side, emotionally assuring her that she would be alright, and felt a wave of relief when her eyes fluttered open and she regained consciousness.

Isaiah Got An Update From Lulu

Meanwhile, in the hallway, Isaiah received a message from Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) expressing her gratitude for his assistance and informing him that Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) was on the mend.

Stella approached him to discuss Jordan, knowing that he and she had dated for a very short time.

Commenting on the almost deadly crash, she questioned whether he had been on duty when he learned about the incident.

Isaiah falsely claimed he had spent the entire night at the cabin with Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr).

GH viewers will remember that he made a house call to treat Rocco’s hand wound at Lulu’s request and gave him antibiotics for the infection.

Ric Told Alexis About Danny’s Mob Ambitions

Ric visited Alexis on Sonny’s instructions to inform her that Danny wished to join the mob.

When Alexis started to hyperventilate, Ric reassured her and explained that he was present when Danny approached Sonny about joining the organization to seek justice for his father.

With a deep breath, Alexis admitted she should have anticipated this, given the circumstances and Danny’s parentage.

Ric described Danny as the ideal blend of his parents, Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), which made Alexis feel uneasy.

Ric shared how they attempted to steer Danny away from the mob lifestyle and told Alexis that Jason made the right decision by having her look after Danny.

Danny Came Down From Cleaning The Basement, Bearing The Ball Gag

At that moment, Danny walked in after cleaning out the basement, curious about a ball gag he had discovered-the very one used on Ric during his captivity in Alexis’ basement!

Ric shot a glance at Alexis as she insisted it was likely just an old Halloween costume accessory.

After Alexis asked Ric to leave, Danny figured out that Ric had informed her about his visit to Sonny.

She conveyed that while she understood his desire to assist his father, her priority was his safety.

As she embraced him, Danny recalled overhearing Ric and Sonny discussing Sidwell’s responsibility for what had happened to Jason.

Justine Tipped Off Sonny

Justine Turner (Nazneen Contractor) met Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) in the apartment above Charlie’s Pub to warn him that Sidwell was furious.

She said he believed Sonny caused Curtis and Jordan’s accident to stop Jordan from getting information on him related to Marco’s murder.

Sonny was upset when Justine asked if that was true, then said she knew he didn’t cause the crash because the PCPD found it was a single-car accident, and Curtis’s statement matched the evidence.

Feeling hurt, Sonny wished she would say he didn’t do it because she trusted him-he reminded her he would never order a hit on someone he respected.

Justine urged him to protect himself without resorting to violence or starting a war, and when Sonny leaned in for a kiss, Justine hesitated but eventually gave in to him.

Gio Showed Emma The Crib Mobile He Ordered For Baby Phoebe

Elsewhere, Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) showed Emma the small crib mobile he ordered as a gift for baby Phoebe Wilson (uncredited), and she believed Brook Lynn would value the kind gesture.

Gio shared his happiness for the Quartermaine family, noting their big hearts, which was clear from how they welcomed him before knowing he was part of their family.

Meanwhile, Brook Lynn and Chase were at the Quartermaine house, getting ready for baby Phoebe’s arrival.

Brook Lynn reminded Olivia, Tracy, and Ned Quartermaine (Lisa LoCicero, Jane Elliot, Wally Kurth) that she and her husband would mainly be responsible for caring for the baby.

She expressed gratitude to her grandmother for opening her home to the orphaned girl.

Gio And Emma Arrived With The Gift

Tracy remarked that it was the least she could do after Olivia almost ruined things for them, which sparked a back-and-forth between Tracy and Olivia when Wiley asked what a hooker was.

When Michael walked into the living room, Olivia attempted to involve him in the dispute.

This prompted Brook Lynn to threaten to send everyone to their rooms if they didn’t behave, warning that they would miss Phoebe’s grand entrance!

Just then, the doorbell rang, and Brook Lynn thought it was the social worker bringing Phoebe, but when she opened the door, it was Gio and Emma standing there with the gift.

The Social Worker Arrived With The Baby

Brook Lynn was thrilled with the mobile, while Michael felt uneasy as she praised Willow for making this day possible.

The doorbell rang once more, and all eyes were on Chase and Brook Lynn as they greeted Phoebe at the entrance.

The family gathered around as the couple settled on the couch with the baby, and Brook Lynn took the opportunity to introduce Phoebe to her new relatives.

Later on, Ned raised a glass in honor of the new arrival, prompting Olivia and Tracy to leave and admire the baby.

As she sipped her champagne, Brook Lynn reminisced about finishing her wine before heading out to watch Gio perform the night before, and a frown crossed her face.

Brook Lynn Was Horrified

Suddenly pulled from her reverie, she flashed back to an event that night, but then Gio reassured Brook Lynn that she would be a wonderful mother.

She confessed that holding Phoebe made her wish she had experienced that moment with him at his birth, but Gio reminded her that they were in a good place now.

Tracy and Olivia teasingly scolded Gio for not inviting them to his show, while Michael expressed his regret that Trina’s special night was overshadowed by Curtis and Jordan’s car accident.

As the conversation shifted to the crash, Brook Lynn recalled honking and swerving to avoid an oncoming vehicle the previous night.

As the pieces fell into place, she felt a wave of horror wash over her.
