Danny Busted Rocco To Jack, Carly Tried To Talk Josslyn Into Quitting The WSB

Danny went to see Jack at Turning Woods to help clear Jason Morgan’s name by stating that Rocco was the one who shot Ross Cullum.

With Cullum now dead, Jack believed the WSB wouldn’t be interested in the pier shooting anymore and advised Danny to let it go to avoid further trouble for Rocco.

Feeling defeated, Danny asked Jack to pass a message to his father, and Jack agreed to try.

In Josslyn Jacks’ hospital room, Carly Spencer thought her daughter would leave the WSB now that the mission with Cullum was finished.

Despite her near-death experience, Josslyn was determined to stay.

Carly Threatened Jack

Josslyn explained that she wanted to make the world safer and pleaded with her mother to understand her choice, as she didn’t want to jeopardize their relationship.

Realizing that continuing to oppose her daughter would drive her away, Carly told Josslyn that while she didn’t agree with her career choice, she understood.

As they shared a heartfelt moment, Jack entered the room.

When Jack requested Carly to step out for a private conversation with Josslyn, she reluctantly agreed, but she still sought revenge.

“You will pay for this,” she whispered to her ex as he shut the door.

Lulu And Charlotte Were Shocked At Dante’s Information, For Different Reasons

Both Lulu and Charlotte were taken aback-for different reasons-when Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) learned from the WSB that Valentin had received a full pardon.

When Rocco defended his sister, his parents were furious to find out that he had also been aware of the former fugitive’s hiding in Port Charles.

Shortly after, Valentin visited the house, eager to take Charlotte out for a catch-up.

However, Lulu was adamant about not allowing her daughter to leave with her father.

Valentin And Lulu Argued Over Charlotte

As Lulu confronted Valentin for endangering their daughter with his secretive visits, she came to a realization.

She realized that Charlotte had met with him the night she went missing during the snowstorm.

Lulu was taken aback when Valentin suggested they share 50/50 custody of Charlotte, angrily reminding him that he had concealed their daughter’s existence for the majority of her early years.

Valentin warned her that if she didn’t find a way to coexist with him, she risked losing her relationship with Charlotte once their daughter reached adulthood.

Chase Updated Brook Lynn On Phoebe’s Paternity Paperwork, And Confronted Michael

At the Metro Court pool, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) informed Brook Lynn Quartermaine Chase (Amanda Setton) that the paperwork for Phoebe Wilson’s (Luna and Lucia Creighton)  birth father had been certified.

This is  bringing them one step closer to adopting the baby.

Brook Lynn inquired about the latest news regarding Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) and pretended to be surprised when Chase disclosed that evidence suggested Willow was the other driver.

This was the driver who fled the scene of the accident involving Jordan and Curtis Ashford (Tanisha Harper, Donnell Turner).

When Chase hinted that Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) was framing Willow once more, Brook Lynn felt a wave of disappointment; her attempts at manipulation had failed-Chase still believed in Willow’s innocence!

Michael And Jacinda Caught Up

On the opposite side of the pool deck, Michael updated Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) about the trip log from Willow’s car, which showed she was on Route 91 when Jordan’s accident happened.

They both thought it was a bit too coincidental-Michael insisted he hadn’t set Willow up but glanced at Brook Lynn, suspecting she might be involved.

He also shared that he was having doubts about separating Brook Lynn and Chase now that his cousin was close to getting the family she always wanted.

However, he felt frustrated about missing time with Daisy Gilmore (Brenden and Evelyn Beimford), who had just turned one, due to Willow’s actions.

Then, Chase confronted Michael with his accusations, but Brook Lynn stepped in, urging her husband and cousin to stop the argument.

As Chase started to walk away, Michael urged him not to risk his family for Willow.

Dante Took Rocco And Charlotte To The Pool

Dante brought Rocco and Charlotte to the pool, and Rocco confided in Dante that he had assisted Charlotte in keeping the secret about Valentin.

He understood  because he sensed that his sister was experiencing a situation with their parents similar to what he was facing with Dante, Lulu, and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud).

While Dante appreciated Rocco’s perspective, he encouraged his son to prioritize honesty in the future, which led Rocco to reveal to his dad that Charlotte had informed Danny about the truth regarding Cullum’s shooting.

Rocco mentioned that he believed Danny wouldn’t share this information with anyone.

Charlotte Saw Danny At The Pool Bar And Went To Talk To Him

Charlotte noticed Danny at the pool bar and excitedly announced that her dad was back, with all charges against him dropped.

This prompted Danny to admit that he had told Brennan about Rocco shooting Cullum, but Brennan didn’t think it would have any consequences.

Initially, Charlotte was upset that Danny had betrayed her trust.

But when he clarified that Jason was the only parent he had left, Charlotte conceded that she would have acted similarly to protect her own father.

Emma Returned From France

Emma returned from France, and she along with Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza) prepared the apartment for Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) arrival.

Gio informed his girlfriend that, at the request of Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), he had vacated his grandfather’s house until the situation with Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) calmed down.

He explained he had opted to stay at Anna’s instead of going back to the Quartermaine estate.

Emma reflected on Anna’s earlier request for her to remain in France, pondering that when someone cares for you deeply, you would go to great lengths to fulfill their wishes.

Tracy And Willow Clashed Prior To A Hospital Board Meeting

As a board meeting at General Hospital approached to discuss Willow’s universal daycare initiative, Tracy and the congresswoman found themselves in yet another intense argument.

This time it was  regarding Willow’s tendency to manipulate others and her excessive time spent with Chase.

Willow accused Tracy of being the true source of strain in Brook Lynn and Chase’s marriage, while Tracy demanded that Willow refrain from interfering in Brook Lynn’s life and stop contacting Chase incessantly.

In her defense, Willow highlighted that Chase had voluntarily come to assist her at the police station, prompting Tracy to question what legal issues Willow was currently facing.

Frustrated, Willow revealed that she was now a suspect in the Ashfords’ car accident, leading her to believe that Tracy had set her up-meanwhile, it struck Tracy that Brook Lynn was the one truly at fault!
