Read Spoilers For What Happens on GH Week of May 24-29: Twisted Dynamics, Risky Secrets, Jack’s Future

Britt Reassured Dante She Hadn’t Told Cullum Rocco Was The Shooter

At her workplace, Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) reassured Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) that she hadn’t revealed to Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) that Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) was the shooter.

She added that she only learned about Rocco’s involvement after the teen confessed to her weeks later.

Upset that Britt hadn’t told him about his son’s secret right away, Dante retorted that Rocco wouldn’t have been caught up in this situation if it weren’t for Britt.

In the meantime, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) told Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) that she didn’t buy his explanation for why he and Charlotte Cassadine (Bluesy Burke) were at Wyndemere.

Although he didn’t share the real reason with his grandmother, Danny admitted it was a foolish decision and promised it wouldn’t happen again.

Britt Visited Danny To Find Out What He Saw And Heard

Later, Britt visited Danny to ask him about what he witnessed at Wyndemere; Danny pressed her on why she had lied about his dad shooting Cullum.

Britt clarified that she repeated what Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) had told her, but he was taken away before she could gather more information from him.

Danny then disclosed that he and Charlotte had witnessed Cullum giving Britt a shot and were aware that she was being compelled to work on a project for him and Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota).

Britt encouraged Danny to tell her everything he remembered that happened.

Danny Revealed He And Charlotte Were Nearly Taken By Cullum, But Sidwell And Ava Arrived

He elaborated on how Cullum had caught him and Charlotte and was about to take them somewhere when Sidwell and Ava Jerome (Maura West) arrived, prompting Ava to call Alexis to come and get them.

Danny understood that Cullum suspected he was the one who shot him, but Britt started to worry that Cullum was getting closer to Rocco.

Determined to make things right, Britt urged Danny to avoid Cullum, Sidwell, and Wyndemere.

She expressed regret for being the reason Jason was taken away. They both agreed that Jason would want them to stay safe.

Ethan Delivered Fake Passports, Rocco Overheard Dante And Lulu’s Fight

At Lulu Spencer’s (Alexa Havins Bruening) home, Ethan showed the fake passports he got for his sister to leave with Rocco and offered to help her escape, but Lulu said she could handle it herself.

Ethan left when Dante arrived, and the commissioner and his ex-wife had a big argument about her handling of Rocco.

When Dante saw the packed bags, Lulu calmly said she was preparing in case she needed to run with Rocco. Dante wouldn’t let her turn his son into a fugitive and decided to assign officers to watch her.

Rocco heard his parents fighting from outside and quietly left, upset that he was the cause of their conflict.

Brook Lynn Was Rattled By Chase’s News, Ethan Came By Supposedly To See Tracy

Brook Lynn Quartermaine Chase (Amanda Setton) tried to mask her fear when Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) told her that Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) had been arrested.

He explained Curtis was arrested for assaulting Isaiah Gannon (Sawandi Wilson) because he thought the doctor was the other driver who fled the accident scene. Ethan then arrived pretending to want to see Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot).

However, it seemed he was really there to see Phoebe. He held the baby and asked Brook Lynn and Chase what seemed like innocent questions about the little girl’s growth.

Alexis Revealed Some Information About Delilah She’d Found Out

Subsequently, Alexis informed Brook Lynn and Chase that Delilah Wilson’s (Lily Cardone) tattoo was linked to the renowned Japanese artist Kiyoko, whose artwork is showcased at a gallery located in Manhattan.

Brook Lynn and Chase offered to go to Manhattan to the gallery, but Alexis advised not to.

Concerned about the potential negative attention that the Quartermaine name might draw, Alexis proposed to travel to Manhattan to investigate Delilah’s ties to the gallery.

She mentioned that she would have assistance in this endeavor, although she conveniently left out the fact that this support would be provided by Ava.

Lucas And Pascal Clashed

Lucas and Pascal found themselves embroiled in yet another altercation regarding Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo).

The butler blamed Lucas for Marco’s demise, accusing him of coercing Marco into pilfering Britt’s medication, which in turn gave Cullum a reason to murder Marco.

Lucas countered by stating that the only way Cullum could have known about the missing medication was if Pascal had informed him.

Pascal, confirming that he had indeed mentioned the missing vials to Sidwell, yelled that he believed Lucas had taken them and wished him dead.

Lucas And Pascal Continued Their Argument

Lucas realized that neither of them could reveal to Jenz that Cullum was responsible for Marco’s death without sealing their own fates.

So Lucas proposed that it would be best if Sidwell remained unaware of their individual contributions to Marco’s demise.

As Lucas prepared to leave, Pascal cried out that he could sense Marco’s spirit lingering in the corridors.

Lucas expressed that it was guilt they were feeling -and that they both should experience it.

Once they were alone, Pascal succumbed to tears, while Lucas, on the other side of the door, battled his own surging emotions.

Josslyn Attacked Cassius!

Josslyn struck Cassius with a chair when he brought her breakfast and attempted to flee, but he pulled her back into the room.

She then confronted him regarding the message Anna had written on the wall. Cassius confessed that Sidwell and Cullum had kept Anna locked up in the room because she had gotten too close to the project, but he claimed he didn’t know that until after Anna was gone.

They also argued about why he hadn’t informed Cullum that Josslyn was in the basement room, with Cassius insisting that he was protecting her by not disclosing her identity as a WSB agent-but he warned that he could change his mind if Josslyn became more trouble than she was worth.

After Cassius left, Josslyn found a stash of makeshift tools that Anna had hidden in the mattress and felt a renewed sense of hope that she could escape.

Dante Summoned “Nathan” And Rocco Discovered His Fake Passport

Calling “Nathan” into his office, Dante disclosed that Lulu was preparing to leave town with Rocco.

When the commissioner inquired if “Nathan” was assisting her, Cassius stated that he wasn’t, but he would if Lulu requested his help.

Meanwhile, Lulu met Ethan at the park and asked him to assist her in leaving town as soon as possible-and to accompany them.

Back at the house, Rocco discovered his counterfeit passport tucked away in one of the duffel bags. At that moment, he received a call from Britt, who wanted to meet with him immediately.
