General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Lives Hang In The Balance Following Faison’s Rampage!
Courtesy/ABC
Friday’s episode of General Hospital moved Faison’s (Anders Hove) return into full-action mode with bullets being fired, lives on the line, being one step closer to the reveal of Faison’s other son, Henrik, and more.
First off, we have got to give kudos to Anders Hove, who makes this story work because of his sheer genius portrayal of the ultimate psycho-villain. And, we have to give major props to Finola Hughes (Anna) for being the glue of this story with her layered performances of a woman tortured by this madman for decades.
Now on to the action: as fans had predicted, it was Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) who was in harm’s way trying to protect Maxie (Kirsten Storms), and his unborn child from Faison. But unfortunately, when he goes to Crimson, his father already had Maxie in his clutches. Shots ring out, and it looks like Nathan is shot near the heart. Faison escapes, while Peter (Wes Ramsey) who was already shot by Faison earlier, attempted to shoot him. Peter calls 911. He helps Maxie put pressure on Nathan’s wound, as Maxie begs her husband to stay with her. Lucas (Ryan Carnes), who earlier announced to Carly (Laura Wright) and Bobbie (Jackie Zeman), that he and Brad (Parry Shen) are adopting a child, was at the Metro Court and arrives to look after Nathan while the paramedics make their way to the hotel.
In the lobby of the Metro Court, Carly tells her staff to get out of the hotel ASAP, but next she has a gun shoved in her back by Faison! It’s Jason (Steve Burton) to the rescue, who shoots Faison point blank, and Faison falls to the floor! Now that Faison is seriously wounded, and as he is being carried out by the paramedics, he inflames Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) by telling him he has Lulu (Emme Rylan)!

Peter, who has made it downstairs, tells the officers, and more, that Nathan has been shot. Peter says he heard Lulu mention she would be at Wyndemere. Dante and Sonny (Maurice Benard) are now on their way there! Alone with Jason, an emotional Carly asks Jason if he can live with the fact that if Faison dies, he may never get his answers as to what Faison did to him and Drew (Billy Miller). Jason says he knows that may be the case.
Anna is waiting for Henrik to show up at the park, since Sonny and Jason went to the Metro Court. As she does, she flashes back to years ago, and we get to see two vintage clips of Anna and Faison. One clip could be a big foreshadowing moment. Why did Anna look so out of it after taking that drink, while Faison moved in close to her? Is it possible that Henrik could be Anna and Faison’s son, which is why she has been on the edge of an emotional meltdown? Later, we see Peter watching Anna in the park from behind the bushes.
At “General Hospital”, both Nathan and Faison are wheeled in and need emergency care and treatment. Bobbie stays with an emotional Maxie, who is trying to process what happened, and that Nathan saved her and their unborn baby when he took the bullet from Faison. Dante and Sonny show up at Wyndemere and kick down the door as the gas fumes are slowly killing Lulu and Obrecht (Kathleen Gati).
So, what did you think of Friday’s GH? Is this the end of Faison and Nathan? Is Anna the mother of Henrik? Will Jason get the answers he has wanted for the last five years? Share your thoughts and theories in the comment section below.
91
Is Wes Ramsey on contract?
Yes, Frank offered it to him in a parking lot.
IT IS SAID IT IS NOT WHAT YOU KNOW BUT WHO YOU KNOW!!!!! WOW.
HAHAHAHAHAHA, Steve and JK. SO TRUE. I find his acting to be very flat; although, I haven’t watched all of Friday’s yet..
Oh Steve, you are quick on your feet!
Lots of drama, for sure. On screen and off. I don’t care for Peter and hope he is not going to end up related to Anna. I would like to see Aiden Turner, who played her cousin or nephew on AMC-Aiden Devane pop into Port Charles
I agree. I find Peter (and the acting) to be very flat. & any storyline involving Lulu, I tend to ignore. Of course, the storyline had to somehow revolve around Sonny.
Peter seems a tad Smarmy to me. Remember cousin Itt from the Adams Family? If you Google Itt and see the picture of Itt with the hat and sunglasses-that is who Lulu reminds me of-always bobbling around stirring up a mess while acting like mother of the year.
This is General Hospital!
Anna was on AMC too, so should she go-wait, Sonny was too-most of the actors on General Hospital were on another show at one time or another. The cast is bloated, but that does not seem to stop the train from Hooterville pulling up with new characters on a regular basis. Aiden Devane is an established character, and related to Anna-plus he is way hot so I say yes to him. Or to Skye Chandler/Quartermaine.
I had also pointed out that Lulu, with her tiny stature and long blond hair, would look like Cousin Itt from The Adam’s Family if she put on sunglasses over her hair.
I am not a fan of Lulu’s but I did love Cousin Itt.
One of my soap-loving friends has always maintained that Lulu reminds her of a grown-up version of “Cindy Lou Who” from Whoville…….
Would also love to see Fiona Hutchison. She is excellent and have not seen her in years.
“Phyllis”
Thank You for the wonderful laugh out loud… “cousin IT” Lulu and Peter.
I’ve christened her : Mamma Smurph… love your bobblehead bettah
Maxie in the blood-stained pink boucle jacket was a step too far. All that was missing was the pill box hat. Not very subtle, GH. That may have been a major clue as to Nathan’s fate. Hope he simply goes into hiding, as he is presumed dead, away from Faison and recuperates and brings his pretty face back to Maxie and the PCPD.
Robin will be the one who determines whether or not Peter is her half-brother. Ande will be involved in finding the answers for Drew and Jason IMHO.
What say ye?
Ryan Paevey’s acting has improved greatly in his time on the show. Career-wise, it’s time for him to see what else is out there. Nathan in hiding could be interesting, but I think this is the beginning of the end of the West(bourne)/Obrecht family. If Kathleen Gati and Michelle Stafford are still on the show at the end of this year, I’d be surprised.
They better not retcon Parking Lot Peter to be Anna’s son. Where would that fit in the historic timeline of the show?
I’ve already posted as such… Wes Ramsey ie: Peter , Heinrik. dear god in heaven. Finn is bad enough… now a son… WHICH , is not lost on the audience… WHO DIDN”T want Anna to have something any thing… after Duke died… we were teased with Griffin. NOW… that laura Wrights boyfriend is hired and contracted… REEKS he doesn’t have any presence or meaning that jumps out at ??? I don’t get it we’ve already seen Anna with Griffin. that seemed to be enough now that Frank Valentini tenure and agenda are OUT IN THE OPEN ???? why not beef… Read more »
This Faison is definitely a living breathing psychopath. He wakes up every day wondering how many lives he can destroy.
Yes, Mary–Faison is an over-achiever for sure
At least by GH standards, Harry! Although he’s still a piker compared to “Helena the Great!”
I do not want Faison dead..
I Love Anders Hove/ Faison..
GH needs Faison, desperately
I was hoping Faison would have shot and killed Jason..
Anders Hove’s acting is superior over Steves.
I hope Faison lives to bring his excitement, intrigue, suspense and thrills to GH..
Great 5 star acting by ALL (APPLAUSE !!)
LONG LIVE FAISON !!!
And–
Cesar Faison and Anna had sex..
Welcomed or not welcomed, they had sex.
Peter is her son ..
Back in time, they had something going on between them.
Anna hates Cesar Faison for forcing himself on her, perhaps and Anna is desperate to keep her secret hidden.
point of interest : Cesar Faison as played by the theatrical Artiste , Anders Hove i’m enamored by him… ANY TIME – any of us – are given a dole out of “REAL” actors… acting. he may be a caricature … ( unfortunately, the GH writers will do this to any actor who is propped and supporting… the Corinthos’ Clan. ) so… is he dead ? will his heart soften ? can we imagine a newfound family with Cesar, Leisl, Britta, Nathan, Heinrick? i’d love that Wes Ramsey is killed off know that ^ won’t happen. any way : SOD… Read more »
..Griffin Faison …. perfect !
I’m waiting for it, how sweet it will be ..
I just hate the idea of nepotism .. at the expense of : all the rest , of the cast and audience. so therefor… I do not want Wes Ramsey to take… thus far he’s not triggered. ugh! well if you have to find something… he can have Lulu. stir on that. any way : I like your last few lines about Anna . which would be a dynamic trek for Our Anna to traverse. every fiber of her being and brain waves pitting all her person up to now. “…Anna hates Cesar Faison for forcing himself on her, perhaps… Read more »
Well, Micheal. it was sad, especially with the rumors about Ryan leaving. We sill have more aftermath to see. Very much LOVE #naxie. This affects a decent amount of the cast. And of course Anders Hove is great at being creepy!!
I thought Ryan Peavy was taking time off to make a movie ? NO MATTER HOW any one cuts and dices… Ryan Peavy… of course has improved past wooden. Ryan Peavy… is so near perfection … like Maxie shared with him… “I liked looking at you @Crimson.. even tho I was making it seem like I was mad at you” YOU cant’ take your eyes off of. HE”S HOT . ‘bam ’nuff said… I love and appreciate what few women will say as much. as I’ve always said : I make the time for Ryan Paevy. Nathan has been @GH.… Read more »
He’s probably branching out. I have seen him recently as Mr Darcy in an okay, soapy movie where he is a rich, dog trainer/judge who falls in love with another dog person. He only had to take his shirt off once when he came out of a swimming pool. Just hope he is not written off GH. I’ve grown to like him, and I think he has grown as an actor. Nice to see.
Ryan Peavy would make an excellent Superman.
no point in watching anymore with genie francis having once again been fired from the show !! and another mass shooting ! please give us the fans both a break and some much needed respect ! enough with the mob and guns ! in happier news Days of our lives ( the soap opera on nbc ) has Tyler Christopher ( nikolas cassadine ) in it from now on ! I only watch Days of our lives from now on : Days of our lives is the best soap on the air at present . Bold and beautiful is so… Read more »
ABSOLUTELY – Here ye, Here ye,
“… trust me : Days of our lives is the soap to watch ! ”
Sony / NBC / Days of OUR Lives
Fact..
Genie was hardly used..
She was mostly backburned..
Until Kevin/marraige Laura had no stories ..
Past year Genie has been wallpaper not seen unless ”talking” someone.
First of all, there is absolutely no suspense to this stupid story because we all know what’s going to happen 4 days before it will happen. Second, I’m so sick of soap opera writers who are stuck in the 70s: the completely helpless “wimmens” need the big strong men to come and save them after they’ve been kidnapped, or held hostage, or blah blah blah. THIS is why nobody under the age of 50 watches soaps anymore. It’s ridiculous. (And don’t even get me started on Anna working with Saint Sonny, of all people, to bring down the bad guys… Read more »
I WAS PISSED ‘ Sonny and Anna , in the car…??? heading to Windemeare or even the metro court
as he spouts to her : ” We’re playing by my rules ”
LIVID ! that’s what this show is?
this is just so out of character for Finola Hughes… isn’t she bombarded with propping and carrying this show.
stuck- STUCK – w/Sonny , Finn, is it Peter/Heinrik. Our Anna …
HELP US DUKE
Patrick, that unfuriated me as well.
Anna has been fighting her own fights with command, control and style thank you very much. She doesn’t need Cheer’s Nick Tortelli to come in and show her how it’s done because she can show him.
Watching Sonny try and dominate his superior (Anna) gave me a whole new appreciation for Robert. Robert treated Anna with respect and as an equal.
Please keep Sonny out of Anna’s story. Give him his own story he can dominate or bettter yet, give him a long vacation.
Amen, Patrick and Harry! Our Anna is a big girl who can take care of herself…we don’t need MobBossSonny calling the shots where she is concerned! As for “Dimples,” an extended vacation would be a grand idea…preferably with a one-way ticket out of Port Charles attached to it!
Peter was shot yet needed zero medical attention and is walking around normal at the end. If that’s an error its huge. But, otherwise, bullet-proof vest and that means Peter was expecting trouble. I don’t get why Nathan wouldn’t be wearing a vest.
Terry, I wondered about that, too. They didn’t answer how he could have been shot, yet roam all over PC without a care. I’m assuming it will be addressed and that he was wearing a bullet-proof vest because he was anticipating trouble. And lurking behind the bushes, spying on Anna, makes it look like he’s son number one for Faison. I guess we’ll find out next week.
I was looking forward to a Faison story, but didn’t like the one delivered. No matter how good the acting. Cassadines have always been evil, but more subtle. Made them more interesting. Not a great way to end the week and start a weekend with. Just too much violence, guns and shootings for my taste, especially for a daytime soap. I can listen to the news anytime for stuff like this. Which is becoming too common in the US everyday with seemingly no remedy in sight. And if this was supposed to be a trade-off for losing Genie and her… Read more »
I dont believe the actor is to interested in a long term stay in the states.
As far as the violence, Rose, these soaps have to compete with so many other forms of entertainment. Its just what they have to do today. Maybe switch over to the Food Channel?
Hi Timmm…I know what you mean about violence and competing with other forms of entertainment for an audience. Especially if you are trying to attract those whose have become used to it growing up with video games for instance. Or anyone watching the amount of violence and discourse everyday in the news which can now come with disclaimers. But why stoop to the lower violence level? Let soaps still set a certain standard for daytime. If this causes the soap genre to end, so be it. Personally i like action, adventure, laced with a little violence…sometimes. if there is a… Read more »
Pissed that they are killing Nathan, if Ryan wanted to leave there had to be another way for him to exit the canvas.
After that horrible Ask Man Landers story, Ryan probably begged the writers for Nathan to have the most violent demise possible. ..never to return.
🙂
The “Man Landers” story had ME begging for death! Unfortunately, I’m immortal so there would have been no escape.
I like Nathan’s character-the one male character who actually has, well, character. He is so genuine and kind, and takes an interest in his marriage, his job, his friends. I’ve always liked Ryan Paevey. I just didn’t care for the Nathan and Maxie pairing, because I don’t care for the character of Maxie. I find her to be extremely annoying and immature. I think after the “Ask Man Landers” debacle, he was probably begging to be let go!
He wont die. Somehow I think Nina does.
How I wish you had been correct on that assertion, Timmmbo!
This episode left me with so many questions… ~ If Faison has always been Anna’s nemesis why has Sonny suddenly been awkwardly shoe-horned into things? (Oh, yeah — everything is about Sonny. I forgot, my bad.) ~ Why did it take lil bad-ass henchman Jason two seconds to take down Faison when Anna and Robert couldn’t get the job done in over two decades? (Oh, yeah…everything not about Sonny — which is nothing — is also about Jason. Again, my bad.) ~ Did the writers really think having Faison take Carly hostage for the space of a commercial break was… Read more »
i was enthralled with : OK Carly looks good. WITH her mom Bobbie and brother Lucas. GOD it was a dream sequence…. SOMETHING NEW GOES ON. IE: POSTERS – take another look at that eppi… where Lucas and Bobbie are so in psynch about the baby… that these two actors HAD to – HAD to – share the scene with laura Wright… WHO , check it , could do nothing to add but prop these two alimighty connection. I LOVE Jacklyn and Ryan Carnes . he smolders. Carly is nothing more than window dressing… at least outside of her full… Read more »
The reason given as to why Dante and Nathan were in uniform was there was a protest on Charles Street earlier in the day and they were require to wear their uniform in order to beef up police presence at the rally– not sure why they put this into the story, but that was the explanation given.
You are on spot with everything that was said
ALAN, you speak my language on so many different levels! I am in total agreement with you! Port Charles revolves around The Dimpled Don, and apparently, nepotism is running amok at the ABC studios! Sonny and Jason once again are labeled as heroic, the PCPD and WSB-inept, and Laura Wright’s boyfriend has an integral part to play with ties to legacy characters. Don’t get me started on the insipid Lulu! I used to like Lulu. Now, I find her to be extremely irritating! If Laura has to leave Port Charles, can she take her annoying daughter with her, please?
Alan, love your comment and agree with your every point. You too, Patrick.
And yes, we lose the grounded, but ethereal Laura, whose history is fascinating, mysterious and certainly worth investigating, but we’re left with Little Lu.
This Lulu seems unworthy to be the result of the Luke and Laura super soap romance. She’s petulant, perky and well, ordinary.
Laura’s out and Lulu stays and we never got to see what was in that letter Luke left her.
Peter as Anna son? I’m not sure how I feel bout that, I’m mean yikes, but those flashbacks were awesome, Finola looked amazing, and no no no on killing off Nathan, that would be very sad, ok back to peter being Anna possible offspring with faison , it would surely be more dramatic and shocking but I wish Anna son was still griffin. What do they have in store for February sweeps? Faison is already shot before we are even there, unless feb sweeps starts before that, regardless I’m anxious for the outcome.
the more i think about this theres no way peter can be anna and faison son, first because faison is not obsessed w/ peter, if peter was his son w/ Anna, then Faison would be so in love w/ this son, and would care less about ryan. And to think the show would go the rape route would be disturbing. I’m all for Anna having an offspring,, considering that Anna, and Robert went on the run in 92 i think? theres no reason why anna couldn’t of been pregnant but w/ Robert child, not Faison, and offspring somebody other then… Read more »
Perhaps Faison had a child with Alex Devane and Peter (Heinrik) will be Anna’s nephew and Robin’s cousin. Don’t retconn the Anna-Fasion story into a drug rape. That’s just so wrong.
Sigh. It’s like Frank and the execs at ABC live in a bubble. They are frustrated execs who seem to prefer a different genre. The more I think about it, it seem like Carlivati was actually the one soap fan. He probably was frustrated having to deal with all these boneheads. I never watched Days of our Lives before, but now that he has taken over there, I have started. You can see, this guy really knows and loves the genre. The people at ABC are trying to change the genre, but you can only change it so much before… Read more »
So Peter is Anna’s ans Faison’s son?????????????
I don’t know who else remembers but being a cop and being with Maxine is like the kids
of death. This will be the 3rd police officer she will bury. Didn’t anyone else think it would end up this way?
Kiss of death not kids, stupid auto correct.
Maxie should have stayed with Spinelli. Not a cop, so he’s not likely to end up dead…. unless the fascists at the NSA come after him for hacking.
I can’t say with certainty but I mentioned quite a while ago on another thread that it looks like Peter/Heinrich is Anna’s child. If that IS the case, for some reason she doesn’t seem to recognize him. It’s one thing to believe he’s her son; another to think she didn’t keep tabs on him all these years…unless…she didn’t realize she gave birth. Perhaps she was told she miscarried and Faison stole him which would make the most sense. And, now, Anna realized the other son must her hers…. I also enjoy Faison’s appearance. This one, though, was quite short. Budget?… Read more »
“always” enjoy…not also
Rebecca1…Sometimes there is a beauty in what I call the “lost years” in some character’s history…like Anna, Robert, Luke, Robin, Jasons, even Faison. And when it comes to the Cassadines, always seem to take place in some clinic in Europe, and recently Russia. So writers can keep re-inventing a history. So maybe Anna was impregnated without her knowledge at one time, maybe not. I would rather one long lost son be Griffin though. And another reason not to kill off characters like AJ for future years. You might want to put them into current stories again. As I have noted… Read more »
Hey, Rose… Yes. I think you know I liked the Man Landers story, too. I thought it was cute and a great way to showcase Amy as well as Nathan. Prior to that little “diversion” Amy was an attempt to resurrect the Amy Vining character from years ago. Didn’t work. It was too obvious for long-time viewers and didn’t work since there was no history; to newer viewers she was just annoying. The story showed her personality beyond the busybody; a young woman who is compassionate, passionate, loving, loyal…and has a great, sharp mind! I loved her advice/marketing skills as… Read more »
Hey Rebecca1 … I always enjoy your posts! I sure hope they don’t kill off Nathan?? 🙁
Abruzzfan!!!! Welcome back!!! 😉 I missed YOU!
Not sure if you received my recent message to you on one of your old posts? Hope so…
As for Nathan, I guess we’ll find out today (Monday) or in the next few days. I hope not, too.
i’m kinda “worried” and /or just wow… on Finola Hughes doing all the work and all Peter / Heinrick has to do is show a little puppy dog eye and wallah he’s taken in PER @suOOOO. we are “thinking” by having Anna… not knowing… was she raped, micky’ed, her eggs taken… the denial or not acknowledging… watching Anna realize… which is without doubt a tour de force actors dream ? and wallah it’s a reunion that fans have wanted… per my post… because of her lover DUke .. we’d swallow anything. WHY NOT ? Frank Valentini agenda , cards full,… Read more »
PS: oy
this Faison expenditure … just wow
I was already a littled miffed at how quickly it all went down . theres our mighty little Lulu… straight on headstrong… isn’t she ? with Leisl. who’s so theatrical … was just going to lay down and rest her head as the toxic gasses get her to sleep
LOL.
any way…. wham bam… will Faison seeing his sons… take any away from GH top villain? with two sons… and disregard for Britta ?
Hey Patrick … I like your thoughts on Anna and Peter as her son?? Very intriguing …. indeed!
Wes Ramsey’s performance is definitely empty, and does not warrant a front burner storyline with integral characters. Many on Twitter agree that he got the job because of who is girlfriend is, and that he doesn’t have the acting chops to carry out the role. Meanwhile, our veterans are sidelined and on recurring status.
#GenieIsGH
Not watching until this is rectified.
Finola is giving another amazing performance. I’m on the edge of my seat watching, waiting for the story to unfold. Longtime fans know she never had sex with Faison. Did he steal her eggs at some point? Could have happened, he’s a madman for sure. Is Peter the child Anna was pregnant with when the tanker blew up? Robert’s child? Faison would never push away any child that was his and Anna’s….
What????
Tristan Rogers told them where to shove it he won’t be back ! bravo TR
good points, sylvia! I have been thinking that he was Anna’s with Faison… (see above) but I do see your point, as well. Another theory, maybe it’s the child that she was told she miscarried…hers and Duke’s? Somehow Faison got involved and stole the baby?
RP has improved get out while the getting is good all he was ever used for was eye candy without a shirt ow he has a chance to show he has more to offer I did see him in two other movies and I did see he has a chance my sweetheart run do not walk to the exit door
So, anyone who walked away from the show because of Genie missed a whopper! Anders is just magic! Finola is already so good BUT he and her are on another planet when they are together. His obsession and her inability to write him off comes across genuine! I have no compassion for Lulu and Muddah’s rescue. Emme is wrong as Lulu and Kathrine, a very good actress BUT should have been one and done! Also, Nathan, the actor has improved but I just dont have many feeling towards him BUT Maxie does love him and they both did a good… Read more »
Well, consider Dante’s situation…. He just found out a psychopathic terrorist abducted his wife. His police partner just got shot by the same psychopathic terrorist, and there’s not time for the police commissioner (busy at that crime scene) to assign him a new partner. Dante needs some backup, not knowing what he might run into at Windemere. Jason might be a better shot than Sonny, but he just handed his weapon over to the cops after shooting Faison. So why not let dear old dad come along for the ride? He knows what he’s doing with a gun. Dante knows… Read more »
Good point Satan!
& Dante is a keystone cop who I’m not sure has ever cracked a case or caught a wanted criminal.
But why did they have to put Dante and Nathan in uniform to have Nathan shot? I know–Charles street demonstration, but the blood on the blue and again on Maxie’s Jackie Kennedy colored coat was over-soaping. And has anyone asked about poor Officer Roger’s? I guess he’s okay, since Finn was also knocked out, but jumped up and performed surgery and the guy who conked him. Aaand now my head hurts.
With all the actor’s comings and goings of late, I think the writers are as lost as last year’s Easter egg.
Dante & Nathan in uniform was a silly plot point, but I doubt it would have made a difference in Nathan getting shot. Faison probably would have shot anybody walking off the elevator at that moment. Ironically, the only thing that might have prevented the shooting would be if Maxie had managed to blurt out “this is your son!!” before Faison could pull the trigger. As much of a bastard as Faison is, he most likely wouldn’t have knowingly shot his son. Oh sure, Petey is probably his other son, and he shot him… but Faison has been doing this… Read more »
The writers might have been conked on the head!
The episode had high-charged drama. Can’t wait to see it pick up today after being off all weekend.
Can’t offer Genie Francis air time but Laura Wrights
Bf goes on contract. No Genie, barely any Nwd
Or Monica, Dillion is gone but it’s all good b/c
Steve Burton is back eating up payroll and Laura Wrights
Got her her man close so she can keep
An eye on him. Way to go GH
I think Anna’s sister is Peter’s mom. GH is starting to run low on villains – perhaps Helena is on ice on Cassadine Island. Tune in tomorrow . . .
Under Frank V term at GH there have been some good characters created but are filled with lacklustre talent. Faison’s other son could carry on his legacy of diabolical madness and fixate on Anna.But no the role goes to a talentless former Guiding Light castoff.
The writers are missing so many beats that relate to Faison in GH history…
Faison has terrorized Felicia on multiple occasions. Maxie (or Felicia) should have mentioned this.
Faison held Lucky captive for over a year, making everyone think Lucky died in a fire. This should be Lulu’s motivation in bringing him to justice. A missed opportunity to see Genie Francis do another Angry Laura scene.
And yes, Tristan Rogers and Jack Wagner won’t appear, but having Robert and Frisco send cautionary warnings to current PC residents could be included.
Kirsten Storms : GO … & watch this past Friday and Mondays eppis’ Maxie has graduated to a maturity level I am so impressed with your screen time… the whole shebang save for the trying dialogue … and production value, from Frank and Shelley I don’t know.. yeah, per Steve .. it was a little short of pill box hat… your not in Dallas girl. any way. was it the lighting… KEEP the weight on…. your hair and make up. it all came together… it was riveting to watch “you” outside of the ditz airhead. that’s tiring. where you can… Read more »

THIS WEEK On GENERAL HOSPITAL: The Aftermath of the Explosion
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Julian’s Life Implodes As Bomb Explodes
Friday’s episode of General Hospital left viewers with an explosive ending, literally, that left fans on the edge of their seats of just what will be the ramifications for those inside and outside the Floating Rib, and on the docks of Port Charles.
At the epicenter of the story is William deVry (Julian Jerome), who delivered a top-notch and emotional heart-tugging performance within the hour installment of the ABC daytime drama series.
As it went down, Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) wants Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) dead and has Julian doing his bidding; that includes Julian walking around with a bomb in a backpack. Renault meets Julian on the pier, and Julian lets the drug lord know that he will not target a restaurant full of people, since Jason is currently at the Floating Rib, playing pool with his son. Cyrus tells Julian not to worry that the bomb will not be an issue until Jason is alone. He then hands Julian a burner phone to call him when the job is done.
As the two are talking, a drunken Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) stumbles upon the conversation, and that sets up what would have very well been the final scenes of the former couple known as “Julexis”. When Alexis and Julian begin to talk, Julian shows his concern for her drinking, which she does not want to hear about. Then in a key moment, Julian apologizes to Alexis for all the pain he has caused her. It was in this line of dialogue, “Alexis, you have been such a positive light in my dark life” that viewers and possibly Alexis, felt the weight of what Julian was trying to convey, as he feared his life could be coming to an end, or feeling racked with guilt for the things he finds himself unable to extricate himself from. Alexis wonders why he sounds like he’s saying goodbye to her.
Later, Julian shows up with the bomb at the Floating Rib as he flips through his phone and pictures of his children and loved ones knowing he must do what Renault has ordered to keep everyone safe. He leaves the backpack with the bomb in it under a table.
Courtesy/ABC
At the Floating Rib, we have a major set up that could also lead to dire consequences. Lulu (Emme Rylan) has summoned Dustin (Mark Lawson) to meet her at the bar to discuss the status of their relationship, now that Dante (Dominic Zamprigna) is back in town. Dustin pulls out a ring and gets down on one knee to propose, just as Dante is outside the bar coming to talk to Lulu.
Meanwhile, Dev (Ashton Arbab) discovers the backpack and goes to tell the bartender about it. In addition, Jason, Danny, Cameron (William Burton), and Liz (Rebecca Herbst) and Franco (Roger Howarth) are also there.
At the end of the episode, Julian is back on the docks and pulls out the burner phone Cyrus gave him. Julian says, “You better pick up”, but unknowingly when he hits Cyrus’ number, he sets off the bomb to explode in the bar. Fade to black.
So, what will be the upshot of the bomb explosion? Will Julian, in the midst of the turmoil, make it look like he perished in the explosion to facilitate William deVry’s exit? Will something happen to Lulu, since we know Emme Rylan has exited the show as well? Will everyone be saved? Share your thoughts and theories and what you thought of Will’s performance via the comment section below.
