Sonny Corinthos’s Dog Rescue
Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) and Emma arrived at Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) house with several dogs they saved from Professor Henry Dalton’s (Daniel Goddard) off-campus lab.
They asked if they could keep the dogs there until the shelters opened the next morning. Putting on his lawyer hat, Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) stated that a more urgent matter was Rocco facing felony charges, and Gio and Emma had now made him an accomplice in theft.
Emma argued that they had freed the animals, but Ric replied that it was theft, breaking and entering, and conspiracy. He added that animal testing is usually not illegal, so they were in the wrong, not Dalton.

Dante Falconeri’s Dognapping Sermon
General Hospital recaps for December 4 note that things escalated when Dante entered the house and accused Gio of involving Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) in another crime.
Rocco defended his brother, but Dante insisted, calling Gio selfish for endangering everyone present. Sonny intervened, warning Dante to back off and telling him to be a father, not a cop.
Still, Dante maintained that as acting police commissioner, he couldn’t ignore what was happening. Ric then brought up the Good Samaritan law, and Emma and Gio claimed they heard the dogs crying as they passed a building, prompting them to rush in and save the animals.

Father-Son “Alone” Chat
Later, while alone with his father, Dante expressed his frustration that Gio hadn’t learned from his previous mistakes. Sonny pointed out that there was no crime under the Good Samaritan law, and the dogs needed assistance after Dalton left town.
However, Dante was still concerned that the professor might return at any moment and argued that Gio’s influence was damaging the family.
Dante also updated Sonny about the argument he had with Rocco after insisting that the teen avoid Gio.
Sonny reminded Dante that he had two sons who both required their father and used their own relationship as an example of how Dante would eventually resolve things with his children.
Gio Palmieri’s Questions
Gio, Emma, Rocco, and Ric came back to the living room, and Gio asked if any reports had been made about the missing dogs.
Dante answered that he hadn’t seen anything but could still charge Gio and Emma. Defending his brother, Rocco offered to go home if Dante dropped the issue, and Dante silently agreed by picking up his jacket and heading to the door.
As Rocco said farewell to everyone before leaving, Dante exchanged a meaningful glance with Gio before stepping out. “Rocco did that for you,” Sonny told Gio, then shifted his focus to Ric. “That’s what good brothers do.”
Kai Taylor Supports Trina Robinson
General Hospital recaps for Thursday state that Kai Taylor (Jens Austin Astrup) brought a distressed Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) back to her apartment, where she expressed her gratitude for his support during her family’s issues.
Kai thought it was a positive sign that the police had released Curtis. But Trina was concerned that the police must have had a valid reason to detain her father on Thanksgiving.
She lamented feeling powerless as her family fell apart, prompting Kai to propose that they investigate who really shot Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison).
He also mentioned it was preposterous to think that Portia may have shot him when she was the one who stepped in to operate to save his life.
Trina Didn’t Want To Revisit That Night
Nevertheless, Trina hesitated to reflect on that evening, as she started to suspect that one of her parents could be implicated, thinking they were attempting to protect her.
Kai asked if either of her parents would permit Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen) or anyone else to take the fall for their deeds. Trina, assured that neither Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) nor Curtis would act in such a manner, expressed her gratitude to Kai.
She thanked him for uplifting her spirits and concurred with his plan to clear her parents’ names by identifying the real shooter.
Curtis Ashford’s Guilty Confession
At the Savoy, Curtis disclosed to Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) that he had deceived Nathan Reeves (Ryan Paevey).
He had actually spent that lost hour with Selina Wu (Lydia Look), hiring her to eliminate Drew. After Jordan had stood up for him at the PCPD, Curtis expressed that he didn’t want to betray her trust by lying.
With that said, Jordan was infuriated that he had now implicated her as an accomplice. While she acknowledged that he had a motive for shooting Drew, Jordan insisted that she didn’t believe Curtis would kill Drew in cold blood or pay Selina to do it on his behalf.
When Curtis inquired how she was so certain, Jordan highlighted that he hadn’t yet mentioned that he had gone through with the plan.
He Never Went Through With It
Curtis then confessed that he never went through with it, as he didn’t want a murder weighing on his conscience, and if he were to be caught, it would ruin his family.
With another child on the way, he was determined not to let Drew Cain, Selina Wu, or anyone else take that away from him.
There was still a period of time unaccounted for before Curtis met Jordan at the Brown Dog Bar, so he clarified that he had gone back to Aurora to cancel the wire transfer to Selina.
He explained he had to since it had to be processed on the same network. After Curtis revealed that she was the only one he had confided in, Jordan kissed him and affirmed that she believed him, offering her unwavering support.
Davis Girls Catch Up
During a late-night pie session with Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi) and Molly Lansing-Davis (Kristen Vaganos), Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) shared a recap of Drew and Willow’s wedding with her daughters.
They talked about her urgent need to win Willow’s case to prevent Drew from keeping Scout away from them for good. Alexis pointed out that amidst the chaos, there was a silver lining: Scout Quartermaine (Cosette Abinanti) and Willow genuinely seemed to like each other.
Later on, when Molly realized her phone was missing, Kristina found it on the desk and playfully teased her sister about a message from Cody, who wanted to meet Molly at the Brown Dog.
After receiving a makeover from her sister, Molly made her way to the bar.
Jason Morgan Counseled A Sad Damian Spinelli
Spinelli was at the Brown Dog Bar, waiting for Jason, when Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) entered.
Seated in a booth, Spinelli filled Jason in on the family’s Thanksgiving visit with a still-unconscious Maxie, expressing how heartbroken he felt seeing her in such a critical state.
While Georgie Jones (Lily Fisher) and James West (Gary James Fuller) held onto the hope that their mother would eventually awaken, Spinelli revealed that he couldn’t shake the fear that Maxie might never regain consciousness.
Or even worse, continue to decline, leading to her death. Jason encouraged his friend to concentrate on the possibility of Maxie waking up, but Spinelli admitted he felt stuck in a state of uncertainty.
Britt Westbourne Drunk At The Bar
At the bar, Cody chatted with Britt while Jason glared at their playful exchange. When Britt asked for self-improvement tips, Cody joked that nothing beat her fresh start after returning from the dead.
Britt remembered her role in Sidwell’s murder of Dalton; then, when Cody mentioned being stood up, Britt suggested they lift each other’s spirits.
He shared how heartbroken he felt after almost dating his cousin, Sasha Corbin (Sofia Mattsson). As Cody caught Britt when she stumbled drunkenly, Jason fumed from afar.
Molly Lansing-Davis Catches A Moment
Meanwhile, Britt and Cody browsed songs at the jukebox, and he reminisced about dancing with Molly; Britt insisted they dance, and he hesitantly agreed just as Molly entered the bar, looking great.
When Britt leaned in to kiss Cody, a hurt Molly saw them and stormed out before witnessing him push Britt away. Jason observed everything as Britt claimed Cody was still into her.
Cody replied he could be a friend, but there was someone else now, even if she hadn’t arrived yet, and excused himself. Britt ordered another drink at the bar, but Jason interrupted to tell the bartender to give her water.
When Britt snapped that she didn’t need his input on her drink, Jason said he was there because she was trying to provoke him, then she dared him to kiss her!

Molly Stomps Into The Davis House
Back at Casa Davis, Alexis shared with Kristina how delighted she was that the girls had mended their relationship after the tough year the family endured. It was stressful with the loss of Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) and baby Irene (Mazlyn).
As they reminisced about how much they missed Sam, Alexis expressed that her oldest daughter would have been proud of the love and support Kristina had shown to her sister and mother.
Later on, while Kristina and Alexis were watching TV, an upset Molly stormed in through the front door, while a dejected Cody was staring at his unread text to Molly.
When Kristina inquired if she had seen Cody at the bar, Molly snapped back, “Oh, he was there,” and hurried upstairs.
Jenz Sidwell Showed Up At Laura Collins
When Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) arrived at her apartment, Laura Collins (Genie Francis) attempted to slam the door on him, but when he threatened to contact the police, she hesitantly allowed him inside.
Then, presenting a photo of the mayor with a dead Dalton in the trunk of her car, Sidwell questioned Mayor Collins about what her constituents would think of her killing the professor after their public dispute.
Laura claimed the photo was a fake created by AI, but Sidwell reminded her that they both knew it was genuine and that law enforcement could verify it, too.
Sidwell Showed Laura A Frightening Photo
Asking if she was finished with her bluffing, Sidwell wanted to proceed with the matter at hand, but Laura countered by asking where he had hidden the murder weapon.
Then she told Sidwell that she had survived worse villains than him over the years. Sidwell mocked Laura, stating he had evidence of her being a murderer.
He revealed a second photo showing her and Sonny at her car, pointing out that Sonny had a history of violence, and they both shared the same motive to kill Dalton: their grandson, Rocco.
Sidwell laughed, saying it would have been enough for Laura to implicate herself, but it was a bonus that she also implicated Sonny.
Ezra Boyle Arrives, Just In Time
As the General Hospital December 4 episode continued, Sidwell told Laura that if she cooperated, no one would know her role in Dalton’s murder, hinting that more evidence could emerge.
Realizing she was in a tough spot, Laura asked for Sidwell’s terms; he wanted her to continue as mayor but also work for him. If she followed his rules, he wouldn’t report her to the police, but if she didn’t comply, he suggested something bad could happen to her.
Then, there was a knock at the door, and Laura told Sidwell to ignore it. Sidwell insisted it was rude and opened the door for Ezra Boyle (Daniel Cosgrove).

Laura Learned Ezra’s Role
When Laura learned Ezra would be the go-between for Sidwell, she said it would look suspicious for her to work with Boyle. Sidwell suggested she could explain it since politics often leads to unusual partnerships, and asked if they had a deal.
Laura refused to answer and demanded that Sidwell and Ezra leave her condo; Sidwell showed the photo again, saying Laura had much to think about.
Then, Ace Cassadine (Kieran and Karis Barry) began crying on the baby monitor. Sidwell picked it up and reminded Laura of her words about not being for sale, to which he responded that everyone has a price, and that was hers!
