GENERAL HOSPITAL: Michael Blasts Brad As The Truth About Wiley Comes Out
FINALLY! On Wednesday’s episode of General Hospital, Lucas (Ryan Carnes) memory is jogged just enough that he clearly remembers Brad’s (Parry Shen) shocking words before their car crash; where Brad confessed that Wiley was Nelle (Chloe Lanier) and Michael’s (Chad Duell) biological son.
At the Corinthos home, Lucas stands up and announces to Michael that Wiley is actually his believed to be dead son, Jonah. Carly’s (Laura Wright) mouth drops and then she takes over getting to the root of the truth of the baby switch.
Brad is cornered and left with no choice but to fess up. He explains how Wiley died when he was no longer breathing, and how he was driving with him, when he ended up on the route where Nelle left Michael to die in the car he was driving (Michael recalls this bit of Intel in a flashback).
Then, Brad explains how Nelle appeared with her newborn baby and claimed the whole thing was engineered by Nelle … and how he was so upset and panicked, that he went along with her plan.
Michael lets Brad have it for all of his lies and machinations, and the pain it has inflicted on so many people for over a year and half. How on earth could he do that? Carly also lays into him.
Meanwhile, Sasha (Sofia Matteson) has urgently called Chase (Josh Swickard), who leaves “Wiley” and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) behind, and heads to the Corinthos’ where he hears the whole sad truth about the baby switch.
With Chase gone, Nelle goes looking for “Wiley” who is with Willow, and the two get into a major throwdown catfight. Nelle comes out the victor and goes to get her baby ready to leave town with her son.
So, what did you think of how the truth finally came out? What did you think of Michael’s tirade on Brad? What do you think will happen next? Comment below.
Mommy Nelle from Hell verses Wimpy Weepy Willow who could be knocked over with a pillow…silly Willy Willow…and come on Brad…make it your show..tell what you know…yes, Brad tell Lucas it was his dad who knew too…and if Pukas Lucas gets mad at his dad well, Brad it was still the right thing to do!!-lol
Brad only got a small part of what he deserves. He needs to be arrested!
He sure does!
Why should Brad be arrested when Sonny and Jason are out committing crime on the daily…?
Alan
Because one thing has nothing to do with the other. Second of all, I would like to know what Brad’s excuse means when he kept saying that he was grieving and that’s how Nelle got to him.! Grieving about what? An adopted baby he had for less than an hour.He’s such an ass. How could any mother such as Willow give a child to someone like him?
You can talk about Sonny all you want but he would never have done to one of his kids what Julian has done to Lucas, and for what? Not love that’s for sure but because of his guilt for being such s lousy father.
No, Sonny would just steal AJ’s son from him with Carly’s blessing and then be outraged years later when it happens to his “son.”
As for Brad grieving “an adopted baby he had less than an hour”…wow, that’s harsh. It’s not like Brad lost a pair of shoes or his new i-phone — that was a living being that he and Lucas had waited for to build their family and who they had hopes and dreams for. Every parent talks about the overwhelming love they felt the first time they saw/held their child (and being adopted doesn’t make that child or that love lesser) so why wouldn’t Brad feel the devastation of such a loss?
This is not about Sonny and Jason. This is about the kidnapping of a child by Brad.
Alan – State of New York -Penal Code Section 135.20. Kidnapping in the second degree is a class B felony punishable by a mandatory sentence of 5 to 25 years in prison
I think it’s hypocritical to say Brad should be the one person to pay for his actions on a show that seems to thrive on people NEVER paying for their crimes: Laura, Alexis, Ava, Franco, Sonny, and Jason have all killed people. Carly shot Tony Jones, withheld evidence that Sonny killed AJ, and stole another woman’s identity before coming to Port Charles. Sam committed multiple crimes before and after arriving in Port Charles. Sonny and Jason have committed untold crimes as “coffee importers.” Maxie stole drugs from the hospital for Lucky when he was addicted. Valentin threw Ava over the parapet. Nina induced labor and stole Ava’s baby. And the list goes on and on…I
Yeah but kidnapping your husband’s nephew isn’t merely a crime, it’s a really DUMB crime.
Once again, under New York State Law the only issue is Brad kidnapping a baby.
Highly disappointing.
After all this time…Whose decision was it to have Carly be the main focus of this episode? Lucas and Michael are the most impacted. Bobbie has both her children involved. Heck, everyone in the room, except Julian could all go to town on Brad.
Highlights of the episode:
– The Nelle – Willow fight.
– The reveal that Taggert is Trina’s dad. Just hope that they don’t pull a Burt Ramsey on Taggert. Long time viewers know what I mean.
I don’t think they’re going to “Burt Ramsey” Taggart, now that they made Trina his kid.
What seems inevitable however, is that Taggart is going to have to work with Sonny & Jason to bring down Cyrus the Virus. And you know he’s really gonna HATE that. Won’t be so hard for Jordan… she used to work for Sonny already.
Yep…overdone with Snarly Carly…now if Julian could be found out knowing and tampered with the car that injured his own son!!!-bet Snarly Carly will be in that too
You know, Steve, it was a big mistake for the characters to keep repeating how long Brad had been lying to them. “Over a year”, “18 months you knew…” All this did was remind us how llllooonnggg this oversudsed plot has been creaking along. And, as usual, it’s resolved in 24 hours. There should have been a full episode devoted to the reveal with everyone having a chance to shine. Instead, Sheriff Carly, the Great Rationalizer, castrates the entire room and starts forcing Brad to “enumerate” what happened step by step, like a deranged Algebra teacher. Nelle/Chloe and Willow/Katelyn were fabulous and having both women essentially fighting for their child was very well done. What I DIDN’T need were the interruptions of Sonny & Jason in another inane mob plot and this ridiculous Jordan-driven mystery. Trina & Cameron were cute together, but belonged in a different episode.
What Soaphound and Allen said. Narly caterwauling in the center of the group of characters was annoying as hell. Carly barely knows her half-step brothers (she ruined Lucas’s adoptive father Tony’s life) and yet she is goes on and on as if SHE were Nelle’s intended victim? I need a break from Narly.
Lol….are you new?? Carly, Jason, and Sonny ultimately become the focal point of everything…even stories they have NOTHING to do with. The hypocrisy of Carly never amazes to floor me. I cant believe that this many writing regimes have been able to keep this character such a non self aware hypocrite! Michael had merry go round fathers before Carly finally settled on Sonny as his “father”. First she claimed the father was Tony…then Jason….then Sonny…meanwhile his REAL father was AJ. Carly didn’t like him so she played little games like “Let’s douse AJ in alcohol and make him fall off the wagon!” or “Sonny, can we hang AJ on a meat hook today and force him to sign over parental rights??” Carly and Sonny also take glee and joy in keeping Ava away from her daughter Avery. They have spent a lifetime keeping children from their rightful parents!! So who the hell is Carly to throw shade at anyone?? And Bobbie did something with Lucas when he was a baby…she lied about his true parentage so she could keep him as her adopted child. Listening to her sanctimonious spewing was quite grating too!! The self righteous Sonny and Carly are the two reasons I cant fully invest in this show! Because these two slimeballs always come out on top, untouched and unscathed.
I know, Colin, I know. I just keep hoping, in vain as it turns out, that SOMEONE will wake up to the madness of the Corinthos/Morgan takeover of years ago. There are so many more interesting people to focus on. I abandoned the show after many years when Billy Miller checked out. But then….the Nikolas return and the Nelle resurgence got me hooked again. I still FF anything to do with the militantly repulsive Peter August and keep hoping Billy/Drew will return. And I confess to liking the Ava/Nikolas tale.
Soaphound…sadly speaking, I don’t think that the characters of Peter and Carly are gonna be written off of GH anytime soon. I mean…seeing as how Wes Ramsey and Laura Wright (1) are 2 GH FAVORITES and (2) are dating each other in real life. BEYOND ANNOYING!!!!!
Later.
All good points on Carly. She got triggered due to Nelle’s involvement. I have to admit I was rooting for Nelle to get away with the baby–I like her character’s shenanigans-for some period of time and then get caught and later reunion the baby with Michael.
The show I saw had too much Carly screeching and making it about her and not enough Michael and Lucas expressing their outrage. But then, some things never change. Poor Bobbie just sat there, looking fantasic by the way, with her mouth hanging open, probably wishing Carly would shut up.
Wiley is an adorable child.
It would’ve made more sense for Lucas’ memory to have been jogged while in the car to the airport. The only thing that being in the Corinthos house should have triggered was nausea,
And of course Carly’s caterwauling took center stage. I so wanted Julian to step forward and ask her if she was this outraged when Sonny stole Michael from AJ or if that was different because she gave her blessing.
Poor Brad. He’ll lose everything for one mistake yet Saint Sonny and Jason can commit every crime in the book and come out smelling like roses.
I’m rooting for Nelle. At least she’s entertaining.
You want the writers to leave a baby in the care of Nelle the psychopath?
The alternative is the baby being in the hands of wimpy Michael who is totes cool with his career criminal family who are guilty of hundreds of more crimes than Nelle. I don’t think Nelle is any worse a role model than Sonny, Carly, Michael, and their pals Jason and Sam.
You know, Alan, I’d rather see Wiley with Lucas after all since he doesn’t have too much involvement with Sonny. If not, let Willow have him. She couldn’t do any worse than Carly the Castrator. Oh, I just realized…. Carly is now a grandmother. If I ever hear the words Nana Carly spoken on that show…. I’ll free Nelle myself!
I love the episodes and yes finally, but I have to agree with some poster, how the heck did this.become the Carly show? it was almost like it was all about Carly(clearly one of franks V pet) and Bobbie just stood there like an extra, clearly the writers don’t know how to write for multiple people in a scene, the bobbie I knew would of had more to say. I’m glad brad is getting what he deserves, him and Julian are both weasels. one thing I was glad about was that although this storyline was the main focus, the other storyline playing out with taggert, curtis and Jordan was just as interesting.
This comment is about Taggert and Trina…
Maybe Stella is Taggert’s mom and Trina is her granddaughter…connecting back to the DNA tests that revealed they each had a relative in PC. Taggert and Curtis would be cousins!
What a refreshing, straight-forward reveal! Lucas remembers and, true to the character’s honesty, he stands up and tells Michael immediately that Wiley is his. Then the fireworks started to really light the room! I think there will be a lot more.
These past two episodes were dynamite!
I am so sick of Carly. You hardly ever see her with her own newborn. Then there is Liesl who knew the truth about Wiley. Didn’t she help Nelle at the birth of Michael and her baby? Wonder if she will factor into the reveal at some time. And since other commenters are doing it, sick of Sonny as well, and really disappointed we are going to have another Sonny/Jason crime story. Why should Jason be anywhere near his own kids. He’s a great role model for his own kids. “Let’s bomb a building in retaliation…make sure my gun’s ready…how does he get a license to carry anyway.” And just a little defense of the actor who plays Peter. I like him. Not a great role to play. I think he has probably been disliked by many because of his association with “Carly.”
Carly, “mother of the year.”
OK…here are the GH characters that I am TRULY SICK OF: Alexis, Carly, Jason, Peter, Sam and Sonny.
Everybody else…I like.
Later.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Nikolas Gets an Earful from Ava About Sonny and His Meds; Nina and Drew Can’t Seem to Resist Each Other
Ava (Maura West) seems to feel she has a confidante in a jailed Nikolas (Adam Huss) on the Monday, April 29th episode of General Hospital. In story, Ava heads to Pentonville to visit her ex-husband before he is set to get transferred out of state.
When discussing her living relationship with Sonny (Maurice Benard), which Nikolas already knew about, Ava says she is happy about how her relationship with Sonny has been evolving, Nikolas ask if she’s in love with Sonny. Ava denies it, but goes on to say how great it is for her daughter, Avery to be living with both her parents, who are on the same side and not at odds.
Nikolas believes that Ava loves being in Sonny’s inner sanctum and the power that comes with it. Ava fires back that she spent years looking in from the outside and that everyone despised her. When Nikolas brings up Nina (Cynthia Watros), she says Nina never really could understand the true type of man that Sonny is.

Then, Ava launches in on Carly (Laura Wright), and how she would love to stick it to her, for all the times she blocked Ava from seeing her child and Carly’s attitude towards her. Then, Ava admits to Nikolas that she knows that Sonny has a watered-down version of his bipolar medication, which is making him more vulnerable and she’s capitalizing on it for her own gain. She says she needs to figure out who is responsible, but Nikolas voices concern for Ava’s plan and that if Sonny ever found out she knew about it and did nothing, he would be on the warpath against her. Ava promises she knows what she’s doing. When she says goodbye to Nikolas, he looks upset and sad, as he still seemingly cares for Ava.

Meanwhile in Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) office, Nina walks in complaining about Carly giving her a hard time about maintenance in her office. Nina wants payback for Jason (Steve Burton) buying Carly the hotel, but Drew is not up for playing games with her. She says they both want revenge on Jason and Carly, which Drew denies. Next thing you know, Nina grabs Drew and kisses him. Although, it seems he might walk out the door and away from her, he locks it, and the two proceed to have round 2 of their hate-sex.

Elsewhere, Anna tells Jason about her shooting Charlotte and her concern about Valentin’s (James Patrick Stuart) involvement with Pikeman. Meanwhile, Valentin visits Jack Brennan (Charles Mesure) in Pentonville, where threats are laid out to make Sonny look like the guilty party in eliminating Jason, while Anna is the line of fire, if she doesn’t keep her nose out of Pikeman business, which worries Valentin, who doesn’t want Anna getting hurt in any of this.
So, what do you think about Ava’s plans? Did you like seeing Nikolas back on the canvas? Are you all for a Drew/Nina continued affair? Will Anna get caught in the crossfire only to be saved by Valentin? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below.

Haley Pullos Receives 90-Day Jail Sentence Following DUI Charge And Wrong-Way Car Crash
Former General Hospital actress, Haley Pullos (ex-Molly Lansing-Davis) is going to be doing time in jail, exactly one-year after her arrest from a hit and run wrong-way car collision.
The crash resulted in bodily harm and damages to the other driver, and now Pullos who pleaded “no contest” to the charges and will serve 90 days in jail. She was taken in custody on Monday, April 29th, after the ruling.
According to Haley’s attorney, Mark Daniel Melnick, the 25-year-old actress struck a plea deal and after her three months in jail will be sentenced on July 29th. As part of that sentencing, she must serve five years probation, 200 hours of community service and pay $8,260 in restitution to Courteney Wilder, the other driver in the crash and her driver’s license is revoked for a year.

According to TMZ, the plea deal for Pullos has the “no contest” to one DUI, while the judge dropped the felony DUI causing bodily injury and misdemeanor hit and run charges.
Melnick said in a statement to PEOPLE, “Haley is very grateful to the court for a minimum sentence and for recognizing her remorse and the strides she has made in her sobriety.”
Pullos had played the daughter of Alexis Davis (played by Nancy Lee Grahn) on the ABC soap opera since 2009, but after her car crash and DUI she was replaced by three different actresses until the show finally settled on the current Molly, Kristen Vaganos.

Back in April 29 of 2023, and at the scene of the crash, the police found edibles and mini-bottles of tequila in Pullos’ vehicle and that she was intoxicated. As it turned out, this was to be the second hit and run in the evening for Pullos who had an earlier collision with another car.
The courts decision follows a year-long legal battle with Haley’s pleas changing throughout it, ranging from “not guilty” to “no contest”. She sought treatment for her drinking at a rehab following the crash.
Nancy Lee Grahn, who portrayed Pullos’ on-screen mom took to X on Monday night, April 29th and shared on the sentence and the specific jail, Haley will be serving time: “As Haley’s TV mom I can tell some truths about her as I’ve loved her since she was little girl. She made a HUGE mistake, knows it, owns it & has spent the last yr doing EVERYTHING imaginable to take responsibility 4 it. It’s not that I oppose jail. It’s that I oppose this jail.” The jail in question by Grahn is the L.A. county jail.
So, what do you think about Haley Pullos serving a 90-days jail sentence, and the other rulings that will be part of her sentencing? Comment below.
