Things took another deadly turn, and brought back a familiar face to stir the pot, and a child went apparently missing on the Friday, September 5 episode of General Hospital.

First, Michael (Rory Gibson) is at the hospital to get some blood work done and sees Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) from afar. He asks Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) how Willow is doing? Willow just also found out that Drew (Cameron Mathison) is critical condition, but stable after being shot and taken to surgery.

While waiting to have his blood drawn, Michael sees Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) article on his phone and as he scrolls down, he sees photos of Drew doing shots on Jacinda’s (Paige Herschell) stomach at the Savoy. Michael suddenly flashes back and remembers her as the blonde he sat beside at the bar last night, and bought drinks for, as she mentioned she was low on money after her trip to Australia.

Meanwhile, Lulu comes up to Willow at the hospital about Drew’s shooting and wants to speak to her off the record. Willow makes it point to implicate Michael and Sonny (Maurice Benard). Is Willow the perp, who shot Drew to set up Michael, so he is sent to prison and she gets custody of her children?

Nina (Cynthia Watros) and Portia (Brook Kerr) are talking in Portia’s office about what led to and the aftermath of Drew getting shot, where they clearly could see the other being the culprit without saying so. Lulu comes in sniffing for a story and a comment, to which Portia does not offer up much. After she leaves. another knock at the door reveals Jacinda! Much to the shock of Nina and Portia who paid her off to drug Drew and get incriminating photos with him, Jacinda tells them she needs money to keep her silence. Could Jacinda also be a suspect who shot Drew or is she just back to extort for money?

Meanwhile, after Molly (Kristen Vaganos) is unsuccessful in getting the courts to overturn the restraining order on Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn), in order for her to have emergency custody of her granddaughter Scout (while her father, Drew is recovering from the gun shot wounds in the hospital), Alexis is beside herself. Then, at General Hospital, Felicia (Kristina Wagner) notifies Willow with Elizabeth in tow, that due to the arrangement they made, legally it’s Willow who gets custody of Scout if anything were to happen to Drew.

As word spreads that this is the case, Alexis shows up with some of Scout’s things at the hospital and tells Willow to take good care of her granddaughter because Drew slapped restraining orders on all of her family. Willow appears to be shocked by this move from Drew. Later, Felicia returns with harrowing news, that Scout has gone missing and was not at camp at Lila’s kids when she was supposed to be picked up and brought home. At the same time, Cody (Josh Kelly) delivered a 911 text and call to Molly, which she didn’t read or pick up. Does he have Scout?

Finally, Jason (Steve Burton) is back at the Five Poppies Resort to rescue Britt (Kelly Thiebaud). In his room, he is attacked by a gunman who he shoots and kills in an altercation. Later, he finds a note from seemingly Britt, notating to him her whereabouts and to come save her. He takes the security code he was given and breaks into what seems like the lab Britt has been working in. He seems stunned by what else he sees.

While Vaughan (Bryce Durfee) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) are still being held hostage at the Five Poppies, back in Port Charles, Colette is trying to break into Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) safe at WSB headquarters. She mentions Professor Dalton (Daniel Goddard) to who ever she is speaking to on her phone, but she can’t break the code because the one Josslyn and Vaughan provided was fake. Suddenly, Brennan armed with gun comes upon Colette (Mercedes Lopez Renard) snooping around his office and demands she tell him who she is really working for. Once he gets the intel, or if he doesn’t, will Brennan end the life of the double-crossing Colette? Stay tuned.

So, what did you think of Jacinda being back? Is she a red-herring or could she be a suspect in Drew’s shooting? Do you think Willow is the guilty party and is setting up Michael to take the fall for Drew’s shooting and Judge Heran’s death in an effort to get full custody of her children? And where is Scout? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below. But first check out the scenes, where Michael meets Jacinda leaving more questions than answers.

What I hate-The sight of that sullen psycho Willow acting hateful toward her mother while pointing Chase in Michael’s direction. Ken and Skippy in tennis clothes ( parts and accessories sold separately) playing WSB agents.
What I love- Jacinda. Hire that girl- she’s good.

Hire Jacinda ? I am sure she us up for that Harry, think she was asking for a grand a date… or did you mean hire the actress??

Ha ha! I meant the actress- I like her. But I could see Michael dating her. Remember when he was in love with Abby, a stripper who was tragically killed in an accident? Jacinda reminds me of Abby a bit.

What about Willow getting custody of Scout, despite the fact that she’s a serious suspect for shooting Drew? (and doing so with unfortunately bad aim, no less)

I’m sure Scout isn’t actually “missing”. She will probably turn up first thing on Monday. Hopefully somewhere on the Quartermaine estate where she would actually be safe.

Oh I hate that too. That girl should not be allowed anywhere near children. Lizzy senses it which is why she nervously interjected to let Alexis know she’d be overseeing Scout’s well being.

Jacinda is Michael’s alibi so he didn’t shoot Drew. Michael may also be accused of paying Jacinda off and setting up Drew. I believe jacinda is there just to get money and she didn’t shoot Drew

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, new and old motivations come into play with dangerous consequences. According to the just released GH video spoilers video for the week of August 3-7, a bailiff calls out, “All rise!”

Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.

Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael. She tells her, “Pick out your most seductive suit.” Soon, we see Serena in her bathing suit at the Metro Court face to face with Michael.

Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ask Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), “What did you do?” We also see Michael asking the same thing of Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. Is this how she stops her, or is Jacinda up to old tricks and wants to frame Willow? Remember when Jacindsa drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison)? Stay tuned.

Finally, in the pick-up from last Friday’s cliffhanger, an emotional Jason (Steve Burton) continues to tell Sonny (Maurice Benard) that he cannot work for him anymore. Sonny ask, “So that’s it? You’re Out?” We fade to black.

Vincent Pastore, best known for his memorable role as Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos has passed away.

The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.

As well as his role on The Sopranos, many soap fans will recall he played multiple smaller roles on the beloved One Life to Live from 1995 and 2004. However, in 2008, he landed the short-term role as Maximus Giambetti on General Hospital.

PASTORE WANTED TO BE ON GENERAL HOSPITAL

Maximus was the mobster father of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) bodyguards: Max (Derk Cheetwood) and Milo (Drew Cheetwood)

According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”

Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.

Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.

In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.

Pastore is survived by his daughter, Renee, son-in-law and granddaughter.
