GENERAL HOSPITAL: Would You Be Down With a Dante and Elizabeth Romance?
On the Friday, May 15 episode of General Hospital, Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) shared a heartfelt talk on trauma. Dante is so concerned for Rocco (Finn Carr), and how it affects someone for the rest of their life, which is something Elizabeth knows all too well, but got through it.
It all begins when Elizabeth shows up at Dante’s office ready for her date with Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst). How beautiful she looked did not go unnoticed by Dante. When the talked turned to how Dante told Rocco that he knew his son shot Cullum (Andrew Hawkes), he admits he is scared for his child, because he lost his innocence with the emotional baggage he now must carry forever of shooting someone.
Dante notices how Rocco is becoming more and more withdrawn and he wants to know how to help him. Elizabeth bring up how she can absolutely relate to trauma at a young age, just like Rocco. However for Elizabeth, her trauma came in the form of a brutal rape by Tom Baker. Speaking from experience, Elizabeth details that it was her friends and family like Lucky and Bobbie who helped pull her through. She encourages Dante to continue to show up and be there as support for his son.

SPECIAL DELIVERY
Next, an officer delivers to Dante the evidence from the pier shooting, which Dante plans on destroying. Before she leaves for her date with Ric, Liz reassured Dante he is doing the right thing to protect Rocco and she has done the same. She has left no record of Rocco’s hospital visit the night of the shooting. Liz leaves for her date.
THE WRONG SUSPECT
Then, Cullum storm troops in to Dante’s office demanding the evidence that the PCPD must have collected at the site of his shooting. Dante says that the evidence must be misfiled in the warehouse, but they will find it. However, Cullum realizes Dante is stalling and lying. Before heading to Dante’s office, Cullum paid a visit to Carly (Laura Wright) and saw a photo of Danny with Jason, triggering him to now believe that Danny may have been the person who shot him in the back on the pier!

DINING WITH RIC
At dinner at Café Cherie, Ric handed Elizabeth the folder with the priceless piece of artwork he’d purchased for her through Ava. Elizabeth loved it and went over to Ric and planted a kiss on him.
Will GH move Elizabeth into a romance with Dante? Do you think Liz and Dante make a cute couple? After today’s episode, it’s clear they very much like and admire one another. If so, what happens to Liz and Ric’s burgeoning repeat romance? Share your thoughts and picks via the comment section below.
In the ideal world, of course, Dante would ba back with Lulu and Liz would be with Lucky. Of course he would have to stick around long enough to make that happen.
Biggest problem with a potential Dante & Liz pairing? She’s with Ric. And as Dante’s brother Michael could tell him, the last thing you should want is to be in a “love triangle” with your uncle!
I would hardly compare Dante, Lizzy and Ric with Willow having a tawdry extramarital affair with Michael’s Uncle Drew. Lizzy hasn’t yet committed herself to a romantic relationship with Ric so she is still a free agent.
I love the long-standing connection with Elizabeth & Rick, the two actors work and play off each other so well. Dante has a lot on his plate and I think Dante, at some point needs a new love interest with a new character. I enjoy watching scenes with Rebecca and Ric. I did like the brief “thing” with Ric and Ava… but the story seemed like they were more invested to try out the Elizabeth and Rick dance. I would like them to be endgame. I think they balance each other so well. Rick is reforming and Elizabeth needs to get laid and Rick and Liz… are hot! I’m for Riz! Dante needs another gal.
These two have great chemistry so I would be down with it.
Yes I like Rick but like Liz with Dante more; there isnt the same chemistry there with Rick.
As much as I love Ric, I don’t want to see him back with Liz. Liz and Dante trigger this amazing chemistry that I think took everyone by surprise.
I am team Dante and Elizabeth. I love the chemistry between Liz and Dante. The writers are definitely building a relationship between them, and it is much better than her relationship with Ric. After reading the spoliers for today, I thought Liz would share her suspicions about Drew and Jack having a stroke or Drew’s SOS with Dante. Instead we got something much more intimate, something more personal. Elizabeth sharing with Dante about the trauma she faced after being raped kind of gives me hope that they’re planning to romance between them. I love how they’re building this special bond (protecting Rocco) between them.
The Liz and Ric relationship is trite! How many times can they wash, rinse and repeat that pairing. Last year when Lucky returned, some fans commented that Lucky and Liz were too toxic. But I think Ric was her absolute worst pairing. He was definitely the most toxic. Even Franco, the reformed serial killer, was a healthier relationship than Ric. I think they are better off as friends.
They should reunite Ric and Alexis. At least they’re funny. That would be an interesting pairing.
Right now all Liz has suspicions about the coincidence that both Drew and Jack would have a stroke in the same house a few months apart but no evidence to prove her suspicions.Plus Elizabeth may have known Dante has more important things on his mind right now than just her suspicions.Now if she gets evidence regarding her suspicions then i see her going to Dante.
Oh Liv, please no reuniting Ric and Alexis. They are funny because they hate each other and don’t trust each other. Them as sparring partners is fun. Them as romantic partners, no thank you. Been there, done that.
No thank you, Dante and Lulu are Endgame, bar none.
Not with this Lulu… and I like Lulu. Maybe if the original Lulu (Julie Marie Berman) had returned, it would work. But I don’t see a spark between Lulu 3 and Dante.
There are no absolutes in soap stories just as there are none in real life.
I most definitely would support an Elizabeth and Dante romance. I’ve expected that for several months now. They are so cute together. Elizabeth sharing with him the support system that helped her cover from the brutal teenage rape was so touching. They’re both recovering from the trauma of lost loves. They are both very solid, honest and honorable people. They are perfect for each other. Then there’s the Ric problem. I think Ric is genuine in his desire to repair his relationship with Sonny and to become a better man because of his love for Elizabeth. I just think there is too much baggage there. Plus, I think Ric’s involvement in Sonny’s organization will be problematic. Ric needs to move on with someone new.
Liz and Ric, they do have the chemestry
I like Ric right now. At least for right now, I’d rather see Elizabeth with Ric.
Ric and his silver hair is hot! However, he was always way too old for Elizabeth and I don’t want to see her regressing with Ric or Lucky! Elizabeth needs a fun romance and she has amazing chemistry with Dante.
Ric and Ava were awesome and the show dumped them in order for her to hang around with chemistry free Sidwell.
I have to agree with you SallyB. Elizabeth should not regress with Ric and definitely not with can’t commit Lucky. Elizabeth and Dante have great chemistry and pairing them would be great.
Love that the beautiful and smart Elizabeth is getting the attention she deserves. And unlike with Carly, I GET while men are totally enamored with her. It makes perfect sense.
Carly is literally a Greek goddess. I totally get why men fall all over her. Plus, she’s always the smartest, bravest and funniest girl in the room. I love the way she tosses her hair and laughs when she’s flirting with all the men. She is beautiful and majestic. Little Liz isn’t fit to wipe her shoes!
I like Dante and Elizabeth as friends and confidants and i hope it doesn’t turn romantic between them.
The writing for Dante is contrived and this pairing (potential ) with Liz is forced. They are going out le their way to drive a wedge between Lulu and Dante. In what world would Dante be discussing Rocco with anyone but Lulu. Perhaps Olivia or Sonny. And on paper , Liz should be much older than Dante. (Look at the history with Lucky , etc. who is how much older than Lulu?) I can buy the hospital interaction…and Liz has the same chem as Lucas with Dante.
While I like Liz, I have grown weary of th character being thrown at the feet of every man , only to result in a failed relationship. But hey, this version of Dante sucks and why not have Liz sleep through all of the men in Lulus life? That all being said , Alexa is a great recast .. very much a vibe like JMB (per DZ) … I don’t remember an actress be given such OOC /toxic writing.
I like Liz with Ric. Let’s keep Ric the good guy and so be it. Rather than yet another “who will Liz be with today?” Mantra.
I’m kind of torn. If you asked me last year, I would have said Ric-Elizabeth was been there/done that. His character growth over the past year and slow burn on the potential relationship with Liz has softened my take. Would love to see any of her sons come back and have a grudge with Ric.
Does Lulu’s high horse have room for a third antagonist? Her head explodes every time she’s around Britt and can barely keep it in around Brook Lynn. A Dante-Elizabeth pairing could add Liz to Lulu’s trigger points.
As a woman why would you go back to your abuser. Its like everyone forgot what Ric did to her in the past. So no. I definitely dont want her back with him. I also agree with others this Lulu isnt as good as the past ones. Chemistry is way off with her and Dante. liz would be strong love interest and support for Dante. Apparently the Corinthos men love Liz
You’re going to find that there’s a lot of folks here who really like Alexa Havins’ portrayal of Lulu. Don’t be surprised if she gets an Emmy nomination this year.
That is highly doubtful and I’m an Alexa fan!

‘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’
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.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Sonny Tells Dante, “I Don’t Want a Son Like You,” While Michael Tells Brook Lynn to Bide Her Time Till Chase and Willow Have an Affair
On the Thursday, October 1 episode of General Hospital, both Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) had some things to say and what they had to say didn’t go over well with whom they were talking to!
Sonny had a confrontation with his son, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), while Michael leveled with Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) over Chase (Josh Swickard).
GH is setting up a scenario where everyone is going to make it look like Sonny was responsible for having Sidwell (Carlo Rota) beat up in Pentonville; while viewers already know Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) were behind it.

A VISIT WITH DAD
Now, Dante comes to Sonny’s house. He wants to know straight up from his dad if he ordered the attack at Pentonville. Sonny flatly denies any culpability or responsibility, but Dante refuses to believe him.
Dante informs Sonny he has video footage of Sully and Vito at the prison. Sonny explains to Dante he doesn’t know why Sully beat up both Curtis and Dante. Things escalated when Sonny was deeply hurt that Dante refused to believe him. Dante says he was disappointed that his father didn’t respect him enough to be truthful with him!
Sonny asks Dante to consider that he was being set up. He says all he did was to tell Vito to instruct Sully to keep a watchful eye on Sidwell, not to harm him. No matter what Sonny said, Dante continued hammering him with how he knew deep down, even though he said he left the mob, he had to finish off Sidwell for himself.
Next, Sonny explains everything he has ever done was to provide for and to protect his family. Dante fired back that he doesn’t want to deal anymore with Sonny’s half-baked truths. As the two men argue, Gio (Giovanni Mazza) shows up at Sonny’s front door and overhears Sonny losing his temper and shouting at Dante, “Get out of my house! I don’t want a son like you!” The scenes featured an excellent performance by Maurice Benard.

MICHAEL THE MANIPULATOR
While this is going down, outside the Quartermaine boathouse, Brook Lynn opens up to Michael about living at the Q’s with Chase being there, since he only came back due to legal advice from his lawyer, Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard).
Brook Lynn questioned whether they should get legally separate. Michael insisted that would be a big mistake. When she asks why, Michael tells Brook Lynn to bide her time until Chase and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) have an affair; then she’d have full custody of Phoebe.
An angered Brook Lynn pushed Michael into the water and accuses him of moving Willow back into the gatehouse with intent on putting Chase and Willow in closer proximity and sacrificing Brook Lynn’s family in the process. As the two cousins bicker, Chase shows up asking Brook Lynn if she is OK. Michael punctuates their talk with “You know, I’m right.”
CURTIS FIGURES OUT A WAY TO GET OUT OF THE SLAMMER
At GH, Willow visits Curtis (Donnell Turner) in his hospital room. Curtis wants Willow to get him pardoned and keep him out of jail, and in return, he will help her nail Sonny.
Next, Willow tells Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) she wants Curtis held for observation for three more days. He agrees to do so under one condition, that she understands that he may need to call in a favor from a congresswoman.
So, what did you think of how Dante accused his father and refused to believe Sonny’s answers? Is this the end of their father and son relationship for good? Is Michael the most manipulative person of all, except for Willow? Do the two deserve each other? Do you want Chase and Willow to have an affair? And what of Curtis? Does he have many redeeming qualities left? Share your thoughts via the comment section, but first check out the talk Michael had with Brook Lynn.
