GENERAL HOSPITAL: Brook Lynn Rips Into Lois for Her Cover-Up of Gio’s Adoption and Learning He is Her Son
The fallout from the GH Nurses’ Ball did not disappoint, with the highly-awaited Tuesday May 27 episode of General Hospital.
Top among the moments: the mother/daughter showdown between Lois (Rena Sofer) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), now that Brook Lynn knows that Gio (Giovanni Mazza) is her biological son with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna). Brook Lynn is blindsided when all along she thought she gave her baby up in a closed adoption as a teenager with the help of her mother.
However, Lois secretly gave the baby to her cousin, Camilla, who wanted a child of her own and things would have been OK (according to Lois) if Camilla hadn’t died. Now, with Gio’s reveal on the Nurses’ Ball stage, Brook Lynn demands answers from Lois, who finally admits that Gio is her son. Lois says she was trying to do the right thing, when Dante interrupts the conversation.

Brook Lynn deeply apologizes to Dante saying – she couldn’t bring herself to tell him she was pregnant with his child – and admits she was scared of having the baby and so she gave the baby up for adoption. She swears that she never knew that Gio was their son until tonight. The look on Dante’s face is heartbreaking for Brook Lynn, and she tells him that it was that look she has been dreading seeing for the past 20 years. Dante says they have to be a united front and help Gio.
At the same time, Emma (Braedyn Bruner) finds Gio with his bag and ready to leave the Q’s. She tells him she is coming with him, but just as they are about to leave, Tracy (Jane Elliot) comes barreling through the front door and going on about how she was arrested, and then realizes something terrible has happened from the look on Gio’s face.

Gio tells Tracy that unfortunately for her they are family after all, and informs Tracy that Brook Lynn and Dante are his parents which makes her his great grandmother. Tracy wants details, but Gio tells her to talk to Lois. Next, Tracy stops Gio and Emma from leaving and says he’s her family now. She says everything in this house is his and everyone is related to him, and as he cries, Tracy tells him not to push them away. In a touching moment, Tracy shows Gio a photo of his great grandparents Edward and Lila Quartermaine.
Back at the Metro Court pool area, Brook Lynn gets a text from Tracy that Gio is at the Q’s. As she and Dante get set to leave to be with Gio, Lois starts to come with and Brook Lynn loses it on her mother and tells her she wants her nowhere near Gio, or her, ever again. Brook Lynn says she agreed to a closed adoption so they wouldn’t know where the baby was, and yet Lois changed the plan without telling her. She tells her mother that in no uncertain terms, what she did was unforgivable!

Now crying alone near the pool, Lois is next confronted by Ned (Wally Kurth), who is visibly upset and angered at his ex-wife, and how she could do this to their daughter. We have yet to see the scene between Lois and Ned, which should air on the Wednesday, May 28th episode of GH.
If all of that wasn’t enough, Michael (Rory Gibson) takes Wiley (Viron Weaver) from the ballroom and heads out. Jason (Steve Burton) prevents Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) from following Michael. Just then, Willow gets a call from the nanny, and learns from Jason that he took Amelia to Carly’s which is where Michael is headed with Wiley. A furious Willow wants her children back.

Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) is babysitting Amelia when Michael and Wiley show up and for the first time in months a very pregnant Sasha greets Michael. Later, Michael tucks Wiley into bed and talks how he missed his children and no ocean could keep them all apart. We next learn that Sasha has been sending Michael sonograms of their child. He tells her to not worry, he remembers their arrangement that she didn’t want Michael to be any part of the baby’s life, but he also told her, if she should change her mind, he is right here.

Kai (Jens Austin Astrup) and Trina (Tabyana Ali) head to her apartment following the Nurses’ Ball, and the two admit their deep feelings for each other and hit the sheets which is big step for the couple, in particular. since Kai is the first man since Spencer’s death that Trina has felt such a strong connection with.

Lulu (Amanda Setton) and Cody (Josh Kelly) commiserate over beers for ruining Dante, Brook Lynn and Gio’s life. Lulu still believes this will be a good thing in time, while Cody thinks they just blew everyone’s life up sky high!
Back at the Q’s, an emotional Gio tells Tracy he has a family and he just lost a mother he loved very much. He thinks everyone of the Quartermaines is a bunch of liar and he won’t jump on the family bandwagon. Just then, Brook Lynn and Dante show up for the first time as mother and father to their son. We fade to black.

Throughout the episode there were some excellent performances, chief among them Amanda Setton, Jane Elliot and Giovanni Mazza.
So, what did you think of Brook Lynn laying the smackdown on Lois? What are your thoughts on nuMichael in his brief scenes with Sasha and Wiley? Is it time for Lulu to get what’s coming to her for instigating the entire fallout of Gio’s paternity? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
Have to put Rena Sofer in here. Her pain. Her anguish. Perfectly displayed. Jane is just the most sublime actress and at 78 at the top of her game. Happy birthday Jane. Go get that Emmy babe
I agree and DZ ( Dante) too!
this was like a wow episode, i was crying, there was so many good moments, I felt sorry for Louis because she didn’t do all this out of spite, she really had the best intention, I could see where she was coming from, not wanting to give up her grandson, as for Gio i can understand his anger, he’s processing alot and anger is justified, but wow on Jane Elliot performances as usual the best, how Tracy reacted and the scenes with Gio had me crying. everyone was great in this epidsode the NuMichael is a hotty, Kai is a hotty Gio is a hotty, I really liked this episode, and cant wait for tomorrow. Oh an Lulu SMH, someone needs to put her in her place. Wheres Moma Laura?
Emmys all around for the actor who plays Gio and Amanda Setton for her outstanding performance. Need little more time for Rory’s Michael but he may be in running soon.
While I will continue to hate the revisionist storyline – it has brought out some superb acting.
Amanda Setton was phenomenal on Tuesday. Jane Elliot was as always. And, Mazza shows that if you give someone a little time, they can really grow into a role and succeed.
In one of those “strange soap occurrences” – BLQ and Dante surely would’ve talked about the situation in the rude back to the mansion.
Just one request- can we please stop showing liver transplant recipient Lulu drinking alcohol?
Exactly.
Lois is going to end up being the heavy in this which is very unfortunate. All she tried to do was take care of her daughter and grandchild. Brook Lyn did the very best she could at the time. She realized that she was way too young to try to be a mother and made arrangements for her child to have a good life. Dante was also a child with his entire life ahead of him. He had no way of being a father. Gio had a wonderful, safe and loving life which all any parent can wish for their child. That was stolen from him by the true heavy in the peace, Lulu she stuck her childish, jealous, self-righteous, vindictive nose into other people’s business and destroying lives. She claims to love Dante. She just crusted his world. Laura’s daughter or not, Lulu should never be forgiven for this betrayal.
Excuse me, but I thought Alexa Havins is not playing Lulu.
I hope everyone realizes that LULU and her narcissism blew up Gio’s world…with NO regard for ANYONE else and still expecting kudos for figuring it out…she is DESPICABLE! SELFISH…I hope Dante is DONE with her!
Kinda looking like her only friend will be Cody. Tracy and Laura will support her and that’ll probably be it.
Not too sure about Tracy.
I dunno. Tracy wanted her great grand son found. Lulu made it happen. She has always defended Lulu in the past. I think Tracy will save all her anger for Lois.
The past three episodes go GH have been the best ever. The payoffs now seem like they were worth waiting off. Giovanni, Jane, Rena and Amanda were all amazing. I am sure these scenes will be remembered by Emmy voters and also by Michael with his “year-end review.”
I am excited at the thought of Lulu with Cody. I love Alexa in the role, but the writers need to make her more…likable. It would be interesting to see a triangle with Molly.
I am ready for the Michael/Willow/Drew storyline to take front and center. Rory is going to make a great Michael.
I wish the writers would realize most fans want the Qs to be the main featured storyline. Please bring back Dillon, Celia and other Qs that make this dysfunctional family so fun to watch.
Sonny has been alone long enough. I am not even going to count Natalia as a love interest. The time has come to bring back BRENDA!
Agreed! The Quartermaines are my absolute favorite family
Best line of the day goes to Wiley: “Bye Mommy”
I was hoping for a hug between Tracy and Gil, but likely too soon.
Has Nina lost her ever lovin mind! Is her hatred for Carly so great, that she would have her grandchildren stay with evil Drew? Even betray Sasha, who was more of a daughter to her than Willow? And Maxie, sometimes she should just shut it!
I know everybody is hoping for Lulu and Cody they could get into a relationship Michael, but I’m warning everybody. Now she’s not gonna give her full heart to him because I know that the past time that she had a relationship with a man other than Dante she loved him, but she didn’t love him in the deep way that she’s always loved Dante and I’m telling you even begin something with someone else, I promise you he may not feel comfortable seeing her with Cody and I bet you that will come sooner or later

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).
On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..
In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”
GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW
So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!
FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD
As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”
Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.
So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL
Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.
The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.
In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”
So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
