GENERAL HOSPITAL: Chase Learns He Can’t Father a Child

The results are in, and according to Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) interpretation of Chase’s (Josh Swickard) lab results, he is unable to father a child, thus closing the loop on why he and his wife, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) have been struggling to conceive a baby that they want so badly.

If the results hold true (although we know lots of faulty test results permeate the hospital walls), the next leg of the story of just what Chase and Brook Lynn’s marriage looks like, how this plays into the true parentage of Gio Palmieri (Giovanni Mazza), if the couple would adopt, or allow all this drama to implode their relationship remains to be seen.

As has been speculated, many fans believe that Brook Lynn’s child with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), years ago is actually Gio, although so far, the show has kept his parentage under wraps.  However in a recent interview with TooFab, Giovanni Mazza teased, “I think a lot of fans have been anticipating something coming up.” Mazza added, “We’re really going to explore just who, my character, Gio is.”

In addition, if Lulu (Alexa Havins) reveals this week that she wants Dante back, but then was to learn that Brook Lynn and Dante had a child and its Gio, could you see her moving past that when she and BLQ are mortal enemies? However, the ladies seems to be “OK for now” with Lulu being Brook Lynn’s assistant at Deception?

So, what do you think should happen next? Will Chase tell Brook Lynn the truth that he cannot father a child? Will they adopt? Will their relationship blow up? Will Brook Lynn now want to locate the one child she apparently knows she has? Share your theories via the comment section below.

Knowing these writers… Gio and Emma will start a romance only to find out they too are brother and sister.

Well, that’s not possible because if you might recall, it was a very big deal at the time when Robin was pregnant with Emma, because of the serious concerns of having a child as an HIV-positive mother.

And any other potential baby mamas that Patrick Drake would have had a child with… all three of them happen to be down here in Hell now, and only Psycho Lisa Niles would fit the potential time table. She assures me that she never had a baby.

So whomever the fiddling poolboy’s parents turn out to be, he’s not Emma’s brother. Though he could be her cousin, if he’s Cody’s kid.

I always enjoy reading your comments and thoughts Satan, you do make this site very interesting. My comment wasn’t based in the reality you have explained… more so just at the disregard for GH’s past we, the viewers have recently seen. Much respect to your accuracy, it is always appreciated.

Well said, GH fan.

Keep forgetting to say Satan, I loved you in 1974’s Phantom of the Paradise! Your best movie ever.

Hmmm. Strange plot point to have Chase’s ex-wife be the one to tell the police officer he’s firing blanks.

BLQ would not be supportive of Willow as Brook Lynn was always close with Michael. She lost her ability to sing protecting him from Willow’s nutty twin.

I’d forgotten that Nelle had slashed her throat. Can’t believe they haven’t gotten her back somehow, even though supposedly dead. There’s never been a worse trouble maker, and with Nina trying to mother her, it would be really something. Thankfully, Michael isn’t there for her to chase after, but all the other men, including Cam and trying to take her son away from Willow, oh boy, the possibilities are endless!

She would probably make Nina choose between them!

GH needs to get new writer’s with new and fresh ideas! This senerio with Chase has been revisited several times, remember Molly and TJ! I can’t believe they came back with a similar storyline! Boring!!!

Not only that.. the extremely weak writing that a mouse ran up to the top shelf of the bookcase? And Tracy’s screaming rant was so out of character even for Tracy. Did the writers ever watch the show back in the 70’s, 80’s or 90’s. I wonder what Jane was thinking as she delivered this lines. Jane is a true talent for sticking around.

Tuesday’s scenes seemed inline with traditional Quartermaine interaction. Had to chuckle when Ned told Tracy “Mother, I thought you liked children, you just kidnapped two”.

Since they didn’t actually show the mouse, it crossed my mind that there was no such critter at all, and Tracy manufactured that little scene to get exactly the reaction from Sasha that she got.

I’m not sure exactly WHY Tracy would have suspected Sasha was pregnant, but it’s not like she’s done the best job of hiding the pregnancy, with books on pregnancy and motherhood and laptops open to relevant websites on full display for anybody who happened to walk into the Quartermaine kitchen. And that would certainly include Tracy.

Tracy’s really going to freak out when she finds out Sasha’s kid is a Q.

I am excited that the show is potentially going forward with a plot line in male infertility . In real life , it can happen Hope they will move forward with this plot – especially with Chase being an alpha male

I think Cody is Gio’s father. That would make it interesting. Having Dante the father is predictable. I see Willow and Chase to go closer and maybe be a triangle with Drew

There you go! I said the same thing about Cody and Brook Lyn and yes, it seems like they are going round 2 with Chase & Willow.

Making Cody Gio’s dad would make a Gio-Emma pairing impossible as they would be related. Would the writers be so blind to create 3 insta-Scorpios in one year?

Dante’s the father; no doubt.

No more baby hungry stories!

what the hell is wrong with the writers first they destroyed molly and tj story now there going after chase and brooklyn it make me sick they need new writer because the one that they have suck.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Britt and Rocco Say Their Goodbyes, Then She Gets Arrested; Anna Reveals “Nathan West” is an Imposter

Published

On the Friday, June 26 episode of General Hospital, emotional moments, a new duo on the run, the end of the line for Britt and an eye-opening moment between Anna and Felicia were the order of the day. Let’s take a look at what went down, but first let’s give a round of applause for Kelly Thiebaud (Britt) and Finn Carr (Rocco) on their goodbye scenes.

In the story, Rocco insists to his parents, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Lulu (Alexa Havins) that he wouldn’t leave Tortola without Britt. Dante is getting impatient because Britt brought all the trouble in recent months to his son. They need to protect him and they can’t if he stays with Britt. Lulu tells Britt she is the only one who can do the right thing, right now.

Britt explained it is too dangerous for Rocco to stay with her. She was very selfish and made a lot of terrible decisions along the way and Cullum is tracking her down because she did not finish the project he enlisted her for. She convinces Rocco to go with his parents and gives him a little token of something that reminded her of when he was a baby which is a bottle to blow bubbles with.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF

Rocco makes Britt promise to take her medication to ward off her Huntington’s disease symptoms and to keep changing locations so she is not caught. The two share a final hug as both are in tears. Dante makes a call. While in the car ready to leave Britt behind, Rocco says he will never forgive himself is something happened to Britt.

Back inside, Britt is ready to inject herself with her medication but is unaware that Cullum has now tainted it with poison! But she is saved from that, when two police officers burst through the door to arrest her for kidnapping charges! Did Dante call the local police? Is he doing this to keep her safe or to pay her back?

In Port Charles, Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) arrives at Crimson, completely unaware that the man in the elevator is following her. Nina (Cynthia Watros) and Charlotte have an argument about Willow (Katelyn MacMullen). Suddenly, Willow calls her mother that she is being questioned by the PCPD, and Nina learns, it is as a suspect for being the other driver that left Jordan and Curtis injured by the side of the road on Route 91.

ARRIVALS AND DESTINATIONS IN QUESTION

Chase (Josh Swickard) comes to Willow’s rescue much to Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Justine’s (Nazneen Contractor) chagrin. Willow learns Lucy  and Drew are the supposed witnesses against her. Chase figures out when Joe (Jonathan Bennett) was alone with Drew, he got him to blink in a way that implicated her. However, in a shocking moment, Justine reveals that the trip log from Willow’s BMW SUV placed her at the scene of the accident just second before it occurred.

Meanwhile, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) comes by Crimson to see Charlotte. He says he broke into the WSB office to get info to expose Cullum as a double agent. Charlotte blows a gasket! She can’t believe that he would do something so stupid that it could have gotten him killed. She firmly tells Danny that best thing he can do to help Jason is to stay out of things. Danny storms out, but notices the stranger in the elevator who now steps into the Crimson lobby.

The man tells Charlotte he is Agent Mark McKay with the WSB and he has orders to bring her in. When she resisted, he was about to chloroform her, when Danny knocked him out and took off with Charlotte.

ANNA PUTS HER TRUST IN FELICIA

In France, after having some private time with Emma (Braedyn Bruner), Anna (Finola Hughes) wants to talk to Felicia (Kristina Wagner). She tells her best friend she was trying to figure out what memories of her past with Faison, she could trust and not trust. Since Felicia knows her best she is hoping she can believe what she is about to tell her.

It is then that Anna says, “Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) is not who he says he is.” Felicia looks dumb-founded. Will she believe her friend … or think she has drummed this all up in her mind? Stay tuned.

So, what did you think about the goodbye scenes featuring Finn Carr and Kelly Thiebaud? Did you reach for the hankies? Do you believe that soon, Cassius will be caught for his duplicity and the truth about Britt’s “illness” will come to light? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below. But first check out the scenes featuring Anna on her road to recovery in France

‘General Hospital’ Alum Chad Duell Drops First Single EDM/Dance Track ‘If You Need Me’

Published

By

Last weekend, we shared the news that General Hospital alum and Daytime Emmy winner, Chad Duell (ex-Michael Corinthos) was releasing his first single today on June 26th and it has indeed dropped! And for those readers who guessed that Duell’s first track out of the gate was going to be an EDM/Dance/House track … you are correct, sir!

The song entitled, “If You Need Me” is perfect for the late night clubs and can be found on Spotify and other major streaming platforms! Duell is noted as the performing artist, but as the composer/ lyricist and the beatmaker of the track. For his music projects, Chad is going solely by the name of “Duelly” which has been his social media handle for years.

Taking to his Instagram on Friday, Duell explained his deep dive into making music, expressing, “I’ve wanted to make music for a long time… I just never did it. It always felt like this huge, overwhelming thing to learn. All the technical side of it, the programs, everything that goes into actually building a track… it was easy to keep pushing it off.  A couple months ago I finally just decided to go for it.”

BIT BY BIT PUTTING IT TOGETHER

Chad added, “Since then I’ve been putting in a lot of time learning, experimenting, figuring things out, and slowly starting to find a sound I’m really proud of. This first release is more of a dance/EDM vibe, but I’ve also been working on a lot of different styles behind the scenes that I’m just as excited about. At some point I realized I could keep holding onto everything trying to make it perfect… or I could just start putting music out and grow as I go.”

Stepping out of his own way, Duell firmly says, “So that’s what I’m doing.  My first track “If You Need Me” is out now. More coming soon… this is just the beginning.”

As GH viewers know, Chad made the decision to step away from General Hospital after a 15-year run with the series where his last episode aired in January of 2025. By May of last year, the role was recast with Rory Gibson debuting in the part.

Give a listen below to Duelly’s “If You Need Me,” and let us know what you thought of it via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: What Did You Think of the Return of Anna Devane, and What’s In the Letter?

Published

Finola Hughes made her dramatic return on-screen on the Wednesday, June 24 episode of General Hospital. Viewers will see Finola as Anna Devane again on tomorrow’s June 26th episode.

In the story, while in the French mental health facility, Anna has a session with Dr. Laurent. She tell her she now knows she was never kidnapped and that Cesar Faison is dead.

As she continued with her ruse, she went on to say she understands she was enlisted back into the WSB on a secret mission, and through that she relived all the trauma she endured by Faison, which caused her to have a psychotic break. Anna promises Dr. Laurent that her treatment plan had helped her so much in figuring out what was real, and what was in her imagination.

ANNA’S GOT HER OWN PLAN TO ESCAPE

In a smart move (hopefully) Anna told Laurent if she could talk to someone else who had known Faison that it might aid in her recover. She was given the phone and she called Felicia (Kristina Wagner), who agreed to fly to France in the morning. Dr. Laurent claims she is pleased with Anna’s progress, but that they still have a very long long way to go.

Now by herself, Anna pulled out a packet of letters from a bedside table. There is one in particular that she is fixated on. What does it contain? Is this all a part of her escape plan? Will she warn Felicia that “Nathan” is really Cassius (Ryan Paevey)? If so, will Felicia even believe her?

In a summer preview with Soap Opera Digest, GH co-head writers Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten shared, “We’ll see echoes of Anna’s earliest incarnation as she returns to Port Charles with deadly intentions.”

So, were you happy to see Anna Devane back on your screens? What do you think is in the particular letter she was staring at? Will Felicia help Anna escape or not believe a word she says? Weigh-in via the comment section.  But first, you can check out some of the scenes from Anna’s on-screen return below.
