GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Recalls His Promise to Michael, Josslyn Calls Willow “A Skank”, Carly and Drew Have a Showdown
At General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and Chase (Josh Swickard) are checking in on the situation with Michael and talk with Carly and Josslyn, promising to get to the bottom of how this explosion happened in the first place. They assure the two they will do everything they can do figure out who perpetrated and set the explosion to go off.
Next, Diane (Carolyn Hennesy) arrives. She looks into Michael’s room and sees that he is hooked up to ventilators and badly burned. Diane then says that Michael filed for divorce and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) was served with the papers last night while in her hotel room with Drew in D.C.
Josslyn, who has been on the edge over Dex’s death, can’t take it, and walks away pissed off by what she heard. Diane has a legal plan to neutralize Willow by seizing custody of Amelia and Wiley and informs Carly.

Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Jason go back to the penthouse and each blame themselves for Michael being collateral damage. Then, Sonny says he wants them to go after who ever did this to Michael, but Jason voices his concern and reminds Sonny they talked about an exit strategy, and they have to get out soon, because Jason can not risk something happening to Danny as it did to Michael.
Willow is trying to get to the hospital to see Michael. Drew (Cameron Mathison) is already there and runs into Curtis (Donnell Turner), who wants him to leave. Back at Nina’s (Cynthia Watros), Martin (Michael E. Knight) shows up and tells Willow they have to move fast for her to be granted temporary custody of the children, which will help her case later on to get full custody. She doesn’t agree, and heads to the hospital.

Then, Martin shares a huge piece of intel with Nina – Michael made Willow his medical proxy. He says that when things get ugly, they can use Willow’s position as leverage. Martin says Willow needs to know about this power, but Nina thinks she would never use it unless faced with no choice. However, Nina looks like she has a plan.
Now at GH, Willow runs straight into an upset Joss and asks how Michael is. Joss says, “Like, you give a damn!” She goes in on Willow that while Michael was getting burned in a fire, she was in D.C. having sex with Drew, and with Wiley in the next room, no less. Willow says she thought Joss, of all people, would give her some grace knowing relationships can be complex and difficult.

Joss admits it was wrong of her to cheat with Dex, while she was still seeing Cameron Webber, but they weren’t married, and they didn’t have children. Willow says she and Michael are separated and he served her with divorce papers. At that point, Joss is angry and in tears, going on on Willow for her thinking she’s better than everyone else. She yells, “Wake up! You lying, faithless skank. Michael gave you everything, and you repaid him by literally screwing him over.” Willow tells Joss, there are two sides to every story and Michael was not perfect in their relationship.

In a heartbreaking moment no mother should have to bear, Lucas (Van Hansis) tells Carly the debridement team will be coming to do a check on Michael and his burns. He feels it’s better for Carly to step away from the window and to not watch this as it will be very difficult for her. She doesn’t want to leave her son, but hugs Lucas, and leaves and exits.
Now, in the hospital chapel, Carly prays to God for her son. Suddenly, Drew shows up He says wants her to know how sorry he is about what happened to Michael. Carly says she can’t believe she missed how self-involved he is. Drew reminds her that he cared enough about her to go to Pentonville to protect her!
Carly tells Drew that he took the rap for her because he thought he would get a minor slap on the wrist, and instead, he got to be a martyr. Drew says she can attack him all she wants, but Michael is lying in critical condition in the burn unit because of her, and she knows it!
Jason has arrived at the hospital, and gets an update from Lucas that the debridement team is taking care of Michael. In that moment, (GH did the right thing here), Jason flashes back to when he held Michael as a baby, and promised to keep him safe. Coming back to the present, Jason asks if he can sit with Michael after the team is done. Lucas says that he can. Next, Jason with tears in his eyes and in a hospital gown sits down next to Michael. In that moment, Michael opens his eyes while in unimaginable pain.
Elsewhere, Kristina (Kate Mansi) has been unable to bring herself to see Michael. She is up on the hospital roof where Sonny finds her, and gets her to admit what she’s scared of. Finally, she looks through the hospital window and sees Michael, as her sister, Molly (Kristen Vaganos), shows up to support her.
At Nina’s, Diane arrives with Chase and a second officer. She announces they have to take Amelia and Wiley home where they belong and produces a court order. Nina says Willow is at the hospital checking on Michael and begs Diane not to do this to the kids.
So, what did you think of the emotional moments featuring Jason, Carly and Josslyn and how this exit story is playing out thus far for Chad Duell as Michael? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
Slight wardrobe error there. All the visitors to Mikey’s room have to wear gloves and the disposable yellow gowns which is standard protocol, but they also have to wear surgical masks for the same reason. How did Jason get in that room without a mask on?
As for the “faithless skank” Willow and Hallmark Drew blaming everybody but themselves… don’t even get a Devil started.
It’s kind of like SVU and other cop shows. The day players are in full tactical or hazmat gear while the stars all have clear faces and no helmets.
Kudos to Eden for nailing her scenes.
Willow deserves every condemnation that comes her way.
As for Drew – how did the grandson of Edward and Lila Quartermaine turn into the most disliked character on the show? Is there any possible redemption?
The writers had an interesting pairing with Drew & Nina, then threw it away for a pairing disliked by so many. Drew is almost the new Peter.
If I didn’t know better I would think they brain mapped Drew again when he was in prison and this time the upload was either from Shiloh or the Billy Warlock version of AJ. Because he’s acting more like a hybrid of those two than the older version of Drew Cain.
I see the string Shiloh resemblance but I don’t see Warlock’s AJ. Thought he brought a vulnerability and sweetness to the role and I don’t see that in Drew.
Willow’s response perplexed me. I saw no guilt, no remorse, no tears but I did see incongruous self- righteousness as seen when she told Joss that she and Michael are separated and that he served her with divorce papers. Willow was presenting her case as if she were served with papers BEFORE she slept with Drew in the playroom. The actress is perfectly capable of emoting so it must be both the writing and the direction that is making her play this part as an unlikeable shrew.
This Friday’s show was hot, hot, hot! The confrontations were loaded, and no one was holding back. The heart strings were tapped hard as Diane showed up to take the kids from Nina and family was there to support each other. Great show!
Joslyn did herself proud by telling off that skanky Willow !
I think Kate and Cynthia deserve Emmy nods for keeping straight faces when Joss shrilled,” Lying liars who lie!” In a delivery reminiscent of a 12 year old having a tantrum.
I wish Joss could have found a better name to call Willow rather than “skank.” That’s low brow middle school mean girl speech. It kind of ruined Joss’s tantrum.
Oh but Harry, it fits Willow so perfectly! I can’t even think of an “adult” term that works for what she is.
You’re right. I guess Jezebel, trollop, cheap tart, strumpet or hussy would be sound a bit old fashioned.
Hey you guys, being a lot older than you, I kind of just like SLUT myself, The first kiss could have been an “oops” BuT after that, it was go for broke, no accident there., like eating potato chips!
I have no problem with Willow having shared custody. If she uses her medical power of attorney to hurt Michael’s family, they need to bring this to the Judge’s attention. Drew needs to be gone and not raise Michael’s kids. Sleeping with his niece is disgusting. I hope they write the character out soon.
Drew and Willow are nasty. What she’s done to Michael because of Drew shame on them.
Drew is reminding me of Cyrus. Acts like a savior then shows true colors when confronted. I can’t remember his connection to Cyrus when he was in prison. Are we going to learn Cyrus blackmailed him or programmed him in some way? I mean Jeez! Even when Sonny was doing insane things last year at least we eventually learned his medication was being compromised.
Drew is a Narcissist and he is manipulating Willow. She was in a cult so she dose whatever Drew & Nina tell her to do. I think it was very odd that Willow and Michael haven’t even talked since the video came out at the Quartermains. Willow doesn’t even know that her mother sent divorce papers to Michael first. Had they talked they would probably still be together. Let’s not forget Willow is going to feel the shit when she finds out Nina & Drew were sleeping together. That’s so gross how Drew can Sleep with Nina then turn around and sleep with her daughter.♀️ I hope Michael gets better and ends up with Sasha and has full custody of his kids.
Love Eden Mccoy. This girl is a power house actress!
I goofed up below. Was trying to say, can’t wait until she nails Cyrus, not bails, and then I almost made it worse!
I don’t like the new guy playing Brennan. Just doesn’t have the the same sex appeal! What happened the the other guy?

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.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Ava and Drew Revealed to be Behind Framing Sonny for Sidwell’s Prison Beatdown
If you thought that the person responsible for the Pentonville brawl that saw Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and Curtis (Donnell Turner) taken to General Hospital was Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) or even Sidwell himself, you were dead wrong! On the Wednesday, September 30 episode of GH, it turned out that the culprits were actually Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison).
In story, Drew apparently bankrolled the attack on Sidwell and framing Sonny. He told Ava their planned worked (she came up with it!) but was horrified when Drew informed her that Curtis got caught in the crosshairs. Ava is visibly upset because of her longtime friendship with Curtis’ daughter, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali). Drew tried to make Ava see the bright side. Curtis was witness to it and his presence will cast doubt on Sonny’s claims to that he had gotten out of the mob and gone legit.
Later, Vito shows up at Drew’s. They informed him that his guy on the inside of the slammer made a big mistake by hurting their friend and ordered him to leave town.

BOATHOUSE BRAWL
In other major developments, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and Rocco (Finn Carr) have a blow out fight as Danny blames his “brother” for the reason Charlotte was sent off to boarding school.
Rocco told off Danny for Charlotte’s (Bluesy Burke) reckless behavior and he explains he had to protect his sister. He went in on Danny saying that his mother Lulu (Alexa Havins) has been right to send Charlotte to boarding school and far away from Danny.
However, Rocco went a bit too far when he shouted, “And if your mom was alive, she would send you away too!” Next, Danny punched out Rocco, leading to a terrible brawl. An angered Danny yells at Rocco to, “Stay away from me and everyone in my family. And don’t you ever mention my mom again!” Danny storms off.

Now alone outside the boathouse, Rocco flashes back to his first kiss with Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarksi), hoping that his fight with Danny will not escalate and ruin their budding romance. Meanwhile, a bloodied-mouth Danny heads over to Sonny’s and Jason (Steve Burton) is there at the same time. He then admits that he has a bad fight with Rocco and they are both beaten up.
WILL SCOUT WISE UP?
At the end of the episode, Scout, who had a fight with Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) over Drew, and who keeps telling everyone how good a man her dad truly is, comes upon a suspicious scene.
Scout hides behind the wall outside Drew’s. She sees her dad, Ava and Vito talking. Next, Scout seems to overhear Vito assuring Drew and Ava that their business dealings are done, and he’ll be leaving Port Charles for good.
So, what did you think of the reveal that Ava and Drew were behind framing Sonny for the prison beatdown of Sidwell (and Curtis)? Do you think Danny and Rocco’s relationship can be repaired, or do you think the teenagers will continue to be at each other’s throats? Finally, do you hope Scout gets a clue and stops thinking her dad walks on air? Weigh-in via the comment section, but first check out how Ava and Drew conspired below.
