Ava Jerome’s Risky Idea

General Hospital spoilers for Friday, October 23, imply that Ava will suggest something very risky to Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison).

It seems as though the blonde will pitch the idea of moving Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) body somewhere else.

Why would Ava want to do this?

She was slightly shaken by her chat with Detective Joe Fitzpatrick (Jonathan Bennett) during the Thursday, October 22 episode.

As there are witnesses at the Metro Court claiming she was the last person to speak with Brennan, the detective questioned what they were talking about.

Will Drew agree to move Brennan’s body?

As previously explored in General Hospital spoilers about Ava’s dangerous plan and Drew’s murder cover-up, Ava could be looking for a way to protect herself.

However, moving the body again could create even more problems for both of them!

Divorce Finalized

Across town, General Hospital’s promo for Friday shows a scene where a judge notes that Harrison Chase’s (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine’s (Amanda Setton) divorce will be finalized.

All they have to do is sign on the dotted line.

Yikes! That was fast!

Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) and Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard) will go toe-to-toe during the October 23 episode, so it sounds like they’ll iron out the details of Phoebe Chase’s (Luna and Lucia Creighton) custody.

Will BLQ and Chase decide that this is it?

As General Hospital spoilers previously revealed, Chase’s decision to file for divorce left Brook Lynn facing heartbreak.

Could the couple have second thoughts before signing the final paperwork?

Meanwhile, Monet will also have a confrontation with Willow.

Monet will wonder how Willow’s ex-husband feels about “those allegations.”

What allegations, and which ex-husband is Monet referring to?

Fans will have to tune in to find out!

Sonny Corinthos’ Deal

Meanwhile, General Hospital spoilers for October 23 hint that Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will present an interesting deal.

He’ll also share scenes with Jason when he asks his best friend to find out some information for him.

Sonny wants to know if Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) was the one who framed him for the Pentonville attack.

This request from Sonny leads Jason to call out Joss during Friday’s show.

Could this encounter hurt their special bond?

As Soap Opera Spy’s weekly spoilers tease Jason’s confrontation with Josslyn, things could get especially uncomfortable if Jason starts questioning her actions against Sonny.

Joss will also interact with Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel).

During the promo, there’s a clip where Hudson tells Joss, “I want to know what he’s after, and how he plans to get it.”

Will Hudson find that listening device in his briefcase?

And if he does, could Sonny and Ric’s surveillance scheme backfire?

What Else To Expect

Rounding out General Hospital spoilers for Friday, Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins Bruening) will get discouraged.

Will the weight of the libel suit weigh heavily on her mind?

Lulu has plenty to worry about, especially with Willow threatening legal action.

Lastly, Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) and Elizabeth “Liz” Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) will also get closer.

Liz will need some help while at the hospital, and fans know that Dante will be more than willing to lend a hand!

Could their growing closeness lead to something more?

Annemarie’s Take

I think Ava and Drew are playing a dangerous game, and moving Brennan’s body again could be the mistake that finally exposes them!

I’m also hoping Sonny finds out who really framed him for the Pentonville attack. Jason questioning Josslyn could be uncomfortable, but Sonny deserves answers.

As for Chase and Brook Lynn, I can’t believe their marriage has fallen apart this quickly.

Chase seems more interested in defending Willow than saving his marriage, and I think he’s going to regret that decision.

And speaking of Willow, I hope someone finally starts asking the right questions about everything she’s been hiding!

Do you think Jason will believe Josslyn framed Sonny? And will Chase and Brook Lynn really go through with their divorce?
