General Hospital has released the preview clip for Wednesday, August 5, 2026. It shows Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) being pressured to leave town.

One woman hits the jackpot. Plus, Ava Jerome (Maura West) plays the blame game. Keep reading to find out what is coming up in the ABC soap opera.

Key Takeaways

• Curtis’s trial begins.
• For one reason or another, Tracy pressures BLQ to leave town.
• Serena and Lucy scheme to get back control of Deception.
• Jacinda wonders if Brennan will help Willow by targeting Michael.
• Brennan and Willow plot their next move, which the WSB chief believes should be ‘next level’.
• Ava accuses Sonny of being the reason Ethan abruptly left town.

Curtis Ashford’s Trial

Let’s kick off this post with Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner). The man is getting ready for his trial.

In a suspicious twist, Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) extended a peace treaty. The man claimed he would testify on his own behalf in court.

However, Drew doesn’t do anything without getting something in exchange. While Drew confidently hobbled out of there with his cane, Curtis wasn’t too sure if he believed him. I think Curtis should proceed with caution! 

Tracy Quartermaine’s Urging

Across town, Tracy will push BLQ to leave town, with or without the baby. However, BLQ doesn’t look like she’s ready to pack up just yet.

Is Tracy pressuring her granddaughter to exit from Port Charles because of Curtis’ trial? Fans will have to tune in to find out!

Serena Baldwin’s Jackpot

General Hospital spoilers for Wednesday, August 5 reveal that the preview clip also features Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring) and Serena Baldwin (Kelly Kruger).

Lucy is giddy as she gleefully declares to a grinning Serena that they just hit the jackpot. It sounds like Serena is going to try to seduce Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson). 

Lucy wants Deception back, and she’s using Serena to manipulate Michael; however, will their plan succeed?

Jacinda Bracken’s Mystery

As for Jacinda, she will talk to Michael. The blonde will ask if Michael believes Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) helped Willow Cain (Katelyn MacMullen) by targeting him. 

Meanwhile, Jack corners Willow. The man declares they need to take things to the next level. It sounds like they will have a strategy session, but what will this mean for the future? 

Ava Jerome’s Blame Game

Finally, we have Ava. It seems that she faces off with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) once again. While the mob boss questions the blonde, she claims that Ethan Lovett (Christian Howard) leaving Port Charles is all his fault.

Ava probably won’t be totally honest with Sonny about Phoebe Quartermaine Chase (Lucy and Luna Creighton). However, she can say with total honesty that she has no idea where Ethan is now.

That said, General Hospital spoilers state that Ava makes a new alliance. So, I wonder if that happens to be with Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart).

In any case, don’t expect things to smooth out between Ava and Sonny anytime soon.
