General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Who Crashes the Nurses’ Ball?
It’s that time when Port Charles gives us musical performances, Lucy’s (Lynn Herring) array of dresses, backstage panics, and major story points coming to a head, and of course, a top secret arrival. It all begins with the red carpet arrivals at the 2025 General Hospital Nurses’ Ball on Tuesday, May 20th, co-hosted by former lovers, Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) and Congressman Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison).
However, in the just released ABC promo for the action on all-new episodes of GH, the voice-over announce sets the stage with, “You’ll never believe who crashes the ball!” In what could be a red-herring, Gio (Giovanni Mazza) takes to the Nurses’ Ball stage, but while we know he will be performing, it looks like he has something to say! Does he already know he is Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Brook Lynn’s (Amanda Setton) son? Why does Lois (Rena Sofer) look so unsettled? Why does Ned (Wally Kurth) look stunned?
Meanwhile, Drew and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) are in the audience with surprise looks on their faces, and Sonny (Maurice Benard) looks pissed. Fans have been of the mind on social media that Michael will be coming home and show up at the ball. Could that be the surprise guest, or did Sidwell (Carlo Rota) make some kind of dangerous move on Sonny, and reveal his true intentions for being in Port Charles?

Now weigh-in: Who is going to crash the proceedings? Share your theories via the comment section.
Hoping for Blaze to return and a possible Leisl performance. We shall see. Very much looking forward to this week in Port Charles:)
Spencer comes back to life
That’s actually a good guess. Especially if Mikey was going to comeback as a “surprise” for his June 2 court date.
On the other horn, would Spencer really show up right before Grandma Laura leaves town on her usual 3 – 4 month summer vacation??
A recast Spencer will eventually make his way to PC, but it’s highly unlikely they would recast 2 key characters just days apart. Also, Trina & Kai would have to had moved their relationship along to build up the drama of Spencer’s return.
I have a feeling the surprise guest is going to be a Blazing snooze fest.
My original projection was a surprise performance from Liesl, but not sure it’s going that way, since she hasn’t been mentioned in a while. Nu-Michael might show up before the hearing. Is Jason’s call from “the real Drew”?
I was wondering if the surprise guest could be someone from Camilla’s old group which would worry Lois, but not sure anyone else would know who the person was.
I gave up GH since the beginning of the year. I saw the upcoming preview and they had Carly and Nina physically fighting. Two grown, professional women behaving like sceen from Dynasty, between Krystal and Alexis. This is supposed to be entertainment? Willow is an idiot and once the truth about Drew is revealed, she will probably find a reason to blame Nina. Nina needs to stop enabling her daughter be real with her. Either way, she will turn away from her anyway.
I agree with all of what you say. I hate seeing two fifty year old women physically fighting like two middle school girls. And yes, Willow is not worth it.
My face is almost completely blue from holding my breathe that it is Miguel Morez
If Ricky Martin were going to appear, the show wouldn’t keep it a surprise. They’d want to grab as much advance publicity as possible.
Well… I can’t disagree with that.
Nailed it.
Oh my.. I seem to have a fan… you have commented on all my comments! thanks Mike !
I prefer Michael, but you’re welcome!
Well..obtaining the license to preform Madonna’s Holiday is a pretty big deal itself!
Carly is the worst kind of hypocrite, Who in their right frame of mind gets to decide who does or doesn’t deserve to be a mother, these storylines are that terrible.
I would love to see Leisl return with the goods on Drew whom she takes down. But I doubt that will happen. Why would Blaze’s return stir up anything? I mean, Kristina does need a love interest, but she needs to work on herself first. Michael’s return would be a bit premature to shock Weeper and Drewfus. Maybe it’s one of Sonny’s enemies that Jenz brought back….What if Cyrus isn’t really dead? Or how about a Zacchara (spelling?)? Or what about a character people loved returned; someone like Dr. Monroe or Morgan or Franko or Britt? I don’t need the “return” to be a big bomb, just something that will propel story. Nothing lame.
Based on Tuesday’s episode, it certainly feels like Michael (the hand on the private plane). As his face was not burnt after the explosion, there won’t be a mystery about who he is (even with a recast).
I have watched GH since about 1970. I have never missed a Nurse’s Ball. This year I have to admit I think it was the best ever. I thought Geo’s performance was Amazing and the reveal to his parents was so sad for him. LULU can never keep her mouth shut. Hope Dante sees how manipulative she has been and does not take her back. As for Willow I can’t wait for the truth to come out about the real Drew and his actions she doesn’t know about her mother and Micheal. Kristina needs help but don’t want her to get harmed in anyway. Hopefully Micheal and Sasha get back together. Alot to look forward to. Keep it up GH!

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Will Ava Tie the Knot With Drew?

On the Friday, November 13 episode of General Hospital, Drew (Cameron Mathison) convinces Ava (Maura West) they need to get married, to each other! Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) hopes to get the DNA results on Jude (Will Traval) she has waited for, and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) secretly co-conspire to find out who in Port Charles had the infamous tick!
Here’s what went down: Drew explained to Ava that they needed to get hitched ASAP, that way, they couldn’t be forced to testify against each other in the Jack Brennan case. After initially being kind of sick of the thought of marrying Drew, he made her change her mind, by throwing out the fact that if she lands in jail Sonny (Maurice Benard) will have Avery (Ayla Bullington) all to himself.
Next, Ava heads to GH to ask Lucas (Van Hansis) to be her witness in marrying Drew. Lucas has already figured out the reason Ava is marrying Drew because it has something to do with Brennan’s death. Explaining she hates the idea of getting married to Drew, she has run out of other options. Lucas agrees to help her, but firmly tells Ava nobody would believe it was a real marriage anyway.

CAN MOLLY AND JOE STOP THE WEDDING?
At the same time, Drew asked Martin (Michael E. Knight) for a post-nuptial agreement. Martin was not happy to hear that Drew was going to marry Ava, warning that prison was a better option than tying himself to a woman like Ave Jerome.
Eventually Ava, Lucas, Drew, and Martin gathered at the city clerk’s office. Lucas comes up with a way to derail or stall the nuptials by saying that they need to wait for Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) and Avery to show up, as they should be a part of this, too.
Lucas may have saved the day, because Molly (Kristen Vaganos) and Joe (Jonathan Bennett) went to Drew’s office to serve him his warrant, but found the office door open. Next, Joe found a sticky note on Drew’s folder that revealed Drew had obtained a marriage license. A light bulb goes off in his head and he realized Ava and Drew are getting married, so he and Molly rush off to City Hall to try and stop it.

IS JUDE THE TRUE BABY DADDY?
Elsewhere, after receiving a text message that the DNA results are in at the hospital, Brook Lynn ends her discussion over Jude and baby Phoebe with Gio (Giovanni Mazza) and runs out of the Quartermaines.
Once Brook Lynn gets off the elevator at GH, she sees Jude and Britt Kelly Thiebaud) looking might close. She quickly heads back towards the elevator sight unseen and was clearly shaken by what she saw. Earlier at the doctors and nurses hub, Elizabeth helped Dante by confirming by an ear gesture they had worked out; that the patient with the tick was Ava Jerome.
You can check out the scenes where Lucas gets a visit from Ava and he learns she wants him to be her witness in marrying Drew at City Hall.
Now weigh-in: do you think Ava and Drew will tie the knot before Joe and Molly make it to City Hall? What do you think the DNA results will show once Brook Lynn gets her hands on them? Have they been tampered with? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Carly Fears Escalating Tensions Between Sonny and Josslyn: ‘I’ve Already Lost One Kid Because of That Man. I Won’t Lose Another’

On the Thursday, November 12 episode of General Hospital, as battles line are drawn by Carly’s (Laura Wright) ex-husband, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and her daughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), she realizes things are about to get a whole lot worse, and she expressed her fears to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart).
After Sonny came to see Carly to get her daughter to back off of him; especially when Josslyn lit into him in front of nuAvery (Ayla Bullington), Carly is terrified that Sonny could retaliate against Josslyn. Realizing, Josslyn is in danger, Carly won’t sit by and let anything happen to her. She tells Valentin, “I’ve already lost one kid because of that man. I won’t lose another.”
Viewers won’t soon forget the devastation Carly felt when Morgan (Bryan Craig) died in a car bomb explosion back in 2016 because of Sonny’s dealings in the mob in a complex story involving Julian (William deVry) and Olivia Jerome (Tonja Walker).

SONNY IS READY FOR WAR
Meanwhile in the aftermath of his visit with Carly, Sonny told his brother Ric what went down when Josslyn disrespected him in front of his own daughter and hurt Avery. Since Josslyn already make it known that she no longer considers herself part of Sonny’s family, he’s decided to treat her accordingly.
Sonnys first step in payback is to take away her support system at JJE by approaching Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) again, but this time in a much less-friendly way.
Ric points out that this would go against every move Sonny made as a legitimate businessman in Port Charles and would mean he’s back in the mob? Sonny doubles down, saying Josslyn changed the game when she involved Avery. While he showed concern of how bad Carly would feel over all this year, he said he is ready to finish what Josslyn started.
At the Metro Court, Ava (Maura West) is listening to Avery explain what happened between Sonny and Josslyn and how much she hates Josslyn right now, which Ava seems to be OK with.
WILL JOSSLYN’S WORLD BLOW UP ON HER?
Speaking of Josslyn, she is on the pier still after her talk with Hudson and still crying over her confrontation with Sonny and Avery overhearing it, and what she told her sister. Lucas comes across her at the pier while out for his run.
Explaining how badly she feels for what she said about Sonny to Avery, Lucas says that eventually Avery will discover the truth about Sonny. He explains to Josslyn that even though Avery hates her now, she will come to realize that what she said about her father was the truth, and that Josslyn was not lying to her at all.
So, what do you think about Sonny ready to play dirty to take down Josslyn? How will Carly ensure her daughter does not wind up dead? Who do you think is in the right here? Is Josslyn’s vendetta against Sonny justified, at the cost of the relationships with her family? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.
