This week on General Hospital, look for Ava Jerome (Maura West) to fight back and down and dirty, after Sonny (Maurice Benard) kicked her out of the penthouse and threatened to take full custody of their daughter, Avery.  In story, Ava already knows Sonny is not taking the full dosage of his meds. Will she tamper with the pills to make Sonny go off the rails and look completely incompetent to raise a chills.

In the latest official teasers for the show, by week’s end, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) is trying to talk Sonny down. Meanwhile, Trina (Tabyana Ali) has voiced to Josslyn (Eden McCoy) that after her last interaction with Ava, the gallery owner seemed very intense. Trina was fearful that Ava might try to do something to Sonny in retribution for being shown the front door.

Also, Kristina (Kate Mansi) is wanting to build in protections from the court, from any split in TJ (Tajh Bellow) and Molly’s (Kristen Vaganos) relationship, so that she might be able to keep the child, which is causing alarm from Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) and Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez).  Meanwhile, Blaze is left reeling by recent developments.

Ava is starting to act a lot like her sister. Which is ironic, since they barely know each other.

Don’t understand your comment. Starting to act like whose sister?

Ava Jerome is acting a lot like Olivia Jerome. They have the same father, but didn’t grow up together at all. (Ava was never mentioned during the original run of the Jeromes in the late 80s/early 90s)

Thanks for info, the old mind completely forgot about Olivia.

Ava does love her martini’s doesn’t she? I don’t like this. It makes me nervous that Maura West is leaving. It’s like Ava is on scorched earth and taking everyone down with her. If she does leave I don’t know if it was her choice or the shows. Either way it sucks. I hope I’m wrong.

I wish Ava would have reminded Sonny he shot and killed A.J. when he blurted out that she killed Connie.

Would be interesting for them both be responsible for each other’s convictions and both serve time for their crimes. Both A.J. and Connie would then have justice.

Sonny already served time for AJ’s murder. He received a pardon by saving the governor’s daughter.

Bringing up AJ’s murder wouldn’t help Ava, because she’s partly to blame. AJ died (the final time) after confronting Ava for killing Connie. Sonny walked in on AJ accosting her and got the wrong impression.

Stupid Connie in her dying moments wrote “AJ” in her own blood on the floor in Crimson. Guess she didn’t think she’d have enough time to write “AVA” which is only one more letter than Miss Jerome’s initials.

Ava wouldn’t want to remind Sonny about AJ’s death, since she was about 98% responsible for that. Yes, Sonny was holding the gun when the bullet left the chamber. But it was Ava’s gun, the trigger had already been pulled, and Sonny walked in on a scene that certainly appeared to be AJ strangling Ava.

There’s also the fact that AJ did not die from that bullet, but actually of a “cardiac arrest” a week later in the hospital. Shortly before that cardiac arrest Ava was seen talking to herself in the room with a sleeping AJ, convincing herself that he really had to die before he remembered that she had confessed to ConKate’s murder. In all probability, Ava probably tampered with AJ’s IV drip, injecting either an untraceable drug (mobsters always know where to get that stuff on a moment’s notice) or even a simple air bubble. Either one would result in something that looked like a heart attack.

Weirdest thing about AJ’s death is that his mother, a cardiac surgeon and chief of staff of the hospital at the time, did not demand an autopsy to confirm the cause of death. Though the reality is the whole thing was really ReRon Carlivati’s personal beef with Sean Kanan coming to a conclusion. One of them had to go. Probably the wrong one went, given the further horrible storylines that followed (can we say “Fluke”, anyone??)

As much as I was disappointed that Ron’s pettiness led to AJ’s final departure, the eventual reveal was really well done. So well that it got Chad Duell an Emmy. If only angry Michael stayed around.

It’s nice to see Ava fighting dirty with Sonny, but that doesn’t mean Maura West is leaving. Soaps are meant to have drama.

yes, I love your comment better, I agree love Ava fighting dirty, and it doesnt’ have to mean her days are over, why can’t she just be the delicious villain and cause havoc and not have to have her days number ? Lets enjoy Maura West play baddy femme fatale and not start counting whose gonna Off her instead. Sonny gets to be nasty and bad and I don’t see anyone besides some Pikeman hitman( who always miss) trying to get a shot at him.

I think a lot of this is because of the child, Avery, which I’ved noticed has been in a lot more scenes lately. If anything happens to the kid while Sonny has her, it will be Ava’s fault, because, she will have been responsible for Sonny being underdosed, thanks to Valentin.

I really hope Valentin is brought to justice soon so the Pikeman story can be over. And I hope Sonny learns the truth about his meds soon. Maybe it will all come to light around the time Kristina is going into labor.

Well, we know something big will happen and as Dante tried to tell his dad, it will turn out to be his fault. It’s all got to do with his being underdosed and until someone figures it out, it will just get worse!

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, the ABC soap opera picks right back up with everyone turning their backs on Sonny (Maurice Benard), and now the one person he hoped would be by his side appears to be abandoning ship when Justine (Nazneen Contractor) doesn’t believe him about ordering the beatdown of Sidwell (Carlo Rota) in the latest spoilers video.

Sonny screams at Justine, “Someone is setting me up.” She says, “It’s over!” He proclaims, “I didn’t do it!” Little do they know that it was actually Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) who set Sonny up to take the fall for the Pentonville drama that left Curtis  (Donnell Turner) with injuries as well.

Then, Lulu (Alexa Havins) is seen using her voice memo app on her phone to record her discussion with Sidwell while he is recovering from his injuries at the hospital. This moment is intercut with Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) saying, “I wish there was someone who could get Chase (Josh Swickard) to open his eyes about who Willow truly is!”

Next, Willow is seen happily waving while at a table at a Metro Court Gardens, while Chase, Michael (Rory Gibson), Brook Lynn and Ava (Maura West) all receive text messages. Tracy (Jane Elliot) punctuates the promo stating, “That’s the real Willow,” while the words “The world knows” comes across the screen.

Take a look at the official GH spoilers for the week of October 5-9 below.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 5
Sonny challenges Justine. Josslyn takes matters into her own hands. Britt and Willow discuss matters of the heart. Jason is taken to task. Serena finds herself in a bind.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6
Felicia has welcome news for Anna. Brook Lynn confides in Valentin. Hudson tries to talk Josslyn down. Lulu makes a daring play. Willow and Chase discuss his marriage.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7
Carly asks Anna for a favor. Tracy bites her tongue with Gio. Drew and Alexis go at it. Scout tries to broker peace between Danny and Rocco. Lulu pursues a lead.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8 
Carly supports Sonny. Lulu’s latest article makes waves. Ava pitches a new target to Drew. Curtis gets a shock. Chase throws down the gauntlet.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9

Check out the latest General Hospital promo for the action this week entitled, “The World Knows” below.

Now weigh-in: With everyone disbelieving Sonny, what will be his next move? Will he hit rock bottom, or rise up and fight back and prove his innocence? Will Sonny enlist Jason to get to the bottom of this, even though Jason is out of Sonny’s business? Meanwhile, can this truly be the week that Willow is exposed for her multitude of crimes … or is this all a red herring? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below.

Kayden Brenna Tokarksu

Kayden Brenna Tokarski took over the role of General Hospital’s Scout Cain from her predecessor Cosette Abinante on the July 20th episode of the ABC soap opera, when they decided to age-up Scout.  Abinante has played the part since 2022.

Now, as the story has been unfolding, viewers are witnessing Scout’s journey and burgeoning teenage romance with Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) and the conflict she’s caught in the middle of between her brother, Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn) and her father, Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison).

Since Tokarski has arrived on the scene, Scout has shed many tears and been in the middle of some heavy emotional beats. On Sunday, October 4, Kayden Brenna Tokarksi took to her X account and dropped a video message to all General Hospital fans.

During her message, Kayden addressed how General Hospital has been handed down generations within her family and how she had watched the soap before having the incredible moment of actually becoming a cast member, plus fans positive and negative comments since her debut.

Here’s what Kayden expressed, “I just wanted to come on here and show my gratitude for General Hospital. It’s been the largest dream come true. Seriously, I’m pinching myself. Every single day I get to come to work, and work with the incredible cast and crew. My mom grew up watching with her mom and I watched with her. So it’s very full circle. It’s insane that this is my life. I wanted to give a huge shout out to Cosette who played Scout prior. Thank you for building such a beautiful foundation, and really large shoes to fill, but just such a phenomenal, brilliant actress and young woman, and I just wish you all the best.”

As Scout has grown in front of our eyes, Tokarski shared, “Thank you to everyone for your grace, welcome, and support as Scout is transitioning into a teenager and more. I have never been on a soap opera before, so as I’m navigating this new world, thank you. Thank you for all of the positivity and also negativity, because I don’t look at it as negativity. I look at it as a way to learn and grow and evolve because right now.”

Being on a soap opera is always a work in progress, for any actor who has never fully performed in the medium, it is like no other, with the pace and how it required the actors to make things work often without much rehearsal time. Kayden added,  “I’m at a stage where I’m figuring out what works for me and what doesn’t. And if we take it too far, we’ll pull back. Don’t worry. Thanks for being in the ride with me, I hope you stick it out and keep watching General Hospital.”

You can check out Kayden’s video message to all General Hospital fans below.

Now let us know, have you been enjoying Kayden’s performance as the teenaged Scout? Do you appreciate her addressing her love of the show, plus how she hopes to continue evolve in the role? Drop a comment in the thread below.

‘General Hospital’s’ Tabyana Ali on a Potential Kai/Trina/Gio/Emma Quadrangle, ‘I Don’t Think That’s Impossible, But That Would Be Messy’

Published

Kai, Trina, Gio, Emma

On recent episodes of General Hospital, music executive Simon Craft (Grady Eldridge) has been pushing and demanding that Trina (Tabyana Ali) and Gio (Giovanni Mazza) play up a faux relationship when they are onstage, or in front of the camera, to add to their allure as new recording artists to his label.

Simon knows full well that Gio is dating Emma (Braedyn Bruner), and Trina is with Kai (Jens Austin Astrup). It was apparent from the start, that Kai seemed a bit more comfortable with the “arrangement” understanding this was for business, and not pleasure, while Emma initially didn’t like the idea.

Now with Trina’s stalker story in full gear, and as fans eventually find out who is completely obsessed with the budding young singer, while initially seeming to be Simon that would seem to be too easy of a choice. But is GH toying with the idea that somehow Gio and Trina get stuck in a situation and one thing leads to another and they develop feelings one another, too?

SIMON’S MANUEVERS

In addition, after Curtis (Donnell Turner) and Sidwell’s (Carlo Rota) beatdown at Pentonville, where everyone is accusing Sonny (Maurice Benard) of ordering the deed, will this find Gio and Trina on the same side, believing it’s Sonny, or will Gio end up sticking by his grandfather when by week’s end he was also questioning if he was telling the truth?

During a new conversation on the Michael Fairman Channel, Tabyana Ali shared her thoughts that if Gio and Trina were pushed closer together, what that would mean for their relationships with Emma and Kai, respectively.

MUSICAL CHAIRS?

Pondering the soap staple, Tabyana exclaimed, “Oh, my goodness. Who knows? I mean, quite honestly, I don’t think it’s it’s impossible, but, oh, wow! That would be messy!” Ali added that its something that could be quite intriguing to play. “There’s a part of me that wants it to happen just to see, how does it play out? Right? Then, there’s another part of me that’s like, “You can’t do that to Emma and Kai.” That’s so wrong,” believed Ali.

However, Tabyana did admit a complicated love story wasn’t far from her mind. “Originally, I wanted something like a quadrangle.  I really wanted that to happen. And if this is a moment where it could happen, I think that would be fun too.”

When asked to tease what’s coming up for Trina in the next several weeks, she offered up three words. Things for her will “(get) Suspicious, (be ) spontaneous, (and) very dangerous.”

So, do you think the GH writing team is teeing up a situation where Trina and Gio become more than friends and musical artists together? Would you be down for it, or be against it? do you like Emma with Gio and Kai with Trina? Share your thoughts via the comment section, nd in case you missed it, check our chat with Tabyana below.
