It’s astounding when you realize how far back and how connected and beloved the characters of Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) and Felicia Jones Scorpio (Kristina Wagner) truly are. It was very apparent on the Thursday, August 21st episode of General Hospital, as we, the viewers, see a mother grappling with memories of the BJ heart transplant storyline which saved her daughter’s life decades ago, while in the present trying to keep it together as Maxie lays in coma.

The story arc gave a chance for everyone in Maxie’s life to put aside old wounds, disputes, and reflect on their own behavior in this time of crisis. As the episode begins, Maxie is still in a coma after demos a new face mask cream on her face during Home & Heart and collapsing. After almost dying of heart failure, she was saved by Dr. Lucas Jones (Van Hansis), and nurse Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) and their ER team.

Meanwhile, Lulu (Alexa Havins) is finally having a reckoning. She realizes her behavior since she herself woke up out of a coma after four years has hurt the likes of Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), and so she goes about making amends to each of them. Brook Lynn feels bad as well, because she wanted to hang around at the hospital to be there for Maxie, but she left because of Lulu.

FOR OUR BEST FRIEND

Fast-forward Lulu calls Brook Lynn over to Maxie’s and says they need to put aside their differences and be there together for their best friend. Meanwhile, Cody (Josh Kelly) is down in the dumps as he speaks to Tracy (Jane Elliot) about seeing Maxie with tubes in her and in a coma, and Felicia in emotional distress over her daughter. He reflects on how he should have told the truth about Mac (John J. York) being his biological father sooner, because now he could lose his sister.

Later, Ava (Maura West) comes to visit and sees a shirtless Cody at the stables, and he is about to confess he’s not such a nice guy, and that he was paid to seduce her by Kristina. But, will he go through with that?

Back at the hospital, Obrecht comes to bring flowers for Maxie and Felicia asks her to stay, because she is also family. Remember, the late Nathan West (the now returning Nathan West in a mystery role) was Liesl’s son and married to Maxie, and the father to James.

DREW, WE ARE THROUGH

And there’s Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), who has the tables turned on him by Martin Grey (Michael E. Knight), when he refuses to sign a court document that he witnessed Michael (Rory Gibson) hitting Drew in the face. In turn, Drew fires him, because Martin won’t help him from his despicable act against Stella Henry (Vernee Watson). Drew tells Martin he just lost his meal ticket to pay for the spousal support for all his ex-wives.

Drew threatens Michael, Sonny (Maurice Benard) and ADA Turner (Nazneen Contractor) and exits and heads to GH to find Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), to let her know that Michael punched him in the face and that Wiley told him that he misses his mother. Willow wants to do anything to get her kids back, she even seems to be hedging towards whatever plan Drew is coming up with to bring down Michael and get her kids. This is noticeable when Drew hugs her, but the look of uneasiness on her face and not hugging him back with feelings was apparent. Just then, Nina (Cynthia Watros) catches the moment through the door window.

So, sid the moments with Kristina Wagner make you reach for the hankies as a mother praying her child wakes up? Are you glad Lulu made some effort to make amends? With Curtis vowing to stop Drew at the end of the episode, is this the beginning of the end for Congressman Cain, and are we about to embark on an attempted murder mystery or the real thing?

Drew is #Dragon Chow by Labor Day.

Bet your soul on it!

Nice to see Felicia finally getting a chance to shine and not be just a “talk to”. It did harken back memories to the BJ heart transplant. If John York was in the episode, they could’ve used a flashback to the 90s. They also could’ve worked the scene in yesterday when Lucy told Felicia that it was BJ’s heart.

They did revisit the heart transplant when Storms first joined the show. That story fell flat because JFP’s treatment of KW, resulting in the misfortunate recast of Sandra Ferguson as Felicia.

Yes Michael, seeing Felicia go though what she’s going through with Maxie again is heartbreaking and knowing what Kristina Wagner has been through in her personal life makes it all more sad to see on air, I”m just curious to see how all this will play out out since we know Kirsten Storm said herself she’s done filming for the year, and with Ryan Paevey returning and if as Nathan? what is going on? also interesting to note how Maxie storyline is affecting so many characters on the show, so its riveting. And then there’s Drew, I have to say, I’m really enjoying Drew as a villain or I should say Cameron Mathison playing a villain, it just creates so much Drama daily with the list of enemies that keep being added to the list, I’m really enjoying it because its not boring this guy has me screaming at my screen, laughing too when he doesn’t get his way, and thats what makes it fun, we getting to see these back and forth like tennis match with all his rivals and its good soapy fun, I do not want this to go in the direction of someone killing off Drew, especially because it would be a waste of killing off a good villain and all the suspects on the show I don’t want any of the characters written off unless its a who tried to kill Drew storyline and the suspect ends up being Tai, because he did Trina wrong. haha,

I feel bad Kristina Wagner has to do these types of scenes after having lost her son. It can’t be easy. Bless her. She’s such a a pro. I love the Scorpios.

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.

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.
