GENERAL HOSPITAL: Kristina Breaks Up with Blaze, Then Blaze Fires Natalia as She Leaves Port Charles
The same-sex love story of Kristina (Kate Mansi) and Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez) looks to have come to an end on the Tuesday, August 13th episode of General Hospital. With the ‘new attitude’ and grieving Kristina swallowed up in the loss of her baby, she is pushing everyone away.
When Blaze comes to see Kristina in her hospital room, Kristina already knows Blaze got the opportunity of a lifetime to be the opening act for Miquel Morez (Ricky Martin) on his world tour after Natalia (Eva LaRue) came to see her with the news. Blaze insists she won’t leave Kristina while she is recovering in the hospital and because she loves her and wants to be there for her.
Blaze tells Kristina, she is her everything and won’t be pushed away. However, Kristina insists Blaze go for her dream and go on the tour, especially now because Kristina says she is empty and has nothing left to give, because the baby was everything to her. When Blaze tries to reason with her that she can be there to help her though her grief, Kristina says she will end up resenting her because she put her life hold and this opportunity is something Blaze always was born to do.

Kristina tells says Blaze that needs to live her best life. Eventually, after tears are streaming down are face, Blaze says she will go on the tour, but can they, at least, touch base, while she is away. Kristina agrees they can. They share a kiss and Blaze exits, and Kristina breaks down.
Now at the airport with her mother Natalia, Blaze learns that Natalia has to tie up some loose ends before joining her on the European leg of the tour. Blaze gets angry and tells Natalia that she got what she wanted – Kristina dumped her. Now, in turn, Blaze fires Natalia as her manager, before heading out to catch her flight.

If this is Jacqueline Grace Lopez last episode for now, she delivered in these emotional scenes with Kate Mansi and Eva LaRue, and viewers know how on the soaps performers always get some meaty scenes before their exit!
So, are you upset that Kristina and Blaze broke-up? Does this set the tone for a whole new canvas for the character of Kristina moving forward? Do you think Blaze will return? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
Never saw the chemistry between KM and JGL. Hard to believe Blaze is a famous singer as she walks around PC as a normal citizen. It was time for her to depart. Not sure why they’re keeping Natalia. Eva LaRue is a get, but the character is a dud.
Looking forward to the fireworks between Molly and Kristina as Molly now sees her sister’s not so innocent.
Poor Kristina can’t get a break. Her first boyfriend was an abusive piece of shit who put her in the hospital. I’ve pretty much purged the whole thing with Joe Scully’s son from my mind, since that recast of Krissy was so awful.
The Parker thing was just wrong on 666 different levels. Now just when it looked like she might have found “real love” (or at least what passes for that in Port Charles) despite the efforts of Blaze’s bigoted mother. Guess that all went out the window…. literally.
Ironic that they brought the name of Miguel Morez into all of this. For a while there, I was actually thinking Blaze’s backstory might have been that Miguel was her father, and then he dumped her mother Natalia for a man… and that’s why Natalia was a homophobe.
Your Miguel theory is one of your best storyline suggestions ever.
I don’t know. Kristina dumping Blaze feels like a rewrite. The rejection was portrayed well by Jacqueline, but I like her as Blaze and I hate to see her go. It was satisfying seeing her fire Natalia though. Eva LaRue is a likeable person who wonderfully plays an unlikeable person in Natalia. Great actors, both ladies.
This seems like a pretty hasty re-write to me, and one that I don’t like. I liked Kristina and Blaze together, and the fact that GH was finally portraying a real gay couple as something more than background window dressing.They’ve really done an abysmal job in that area in recent years.
The story with Aiden being gay has seemingly been dropped. They did the lovely scene with Aiden coming out to Elizabeth around Christmas last year, and then nothing for months, no follow up, not a thing. Then he was being bullied at school, Elizabeth was going to look into it, and once again, not another word in months. Dr. Terry Randolph has fallen off the face of the earth, as well. And now Kristina and Blaze, who from what I can tell from my travels on social media were a pretty well liked couple, are hurriedly dropped out of nowhere.
GH gives lip service to doing LGBTQ stories, and then never follows up on them for any length of time. I guess Disney doesn’t want to offend the bible thumper conservatives sitting at home watching and clutching their pearls, while they make a list of what books to ban next.
The cast needs to be trimmed even more of all these newcomers, so they can feature our legacy characters more. .It will be interesting to see who else leaves.I do look for Cameron Matheson to leave soon.Just my opinion. Write Natalia off. Send Cates away.
I agree that there are too many characters. I hope the cast gets trimmed down and more focus on the characters that fans have loved for years.
I loved Eva LaRue in CSI Hope her character on GH develops more.
Building this relationship into something that appeared it was going to be part of the fabric long term and initially doing a tremendous job with the storyline and all it represents , to do an about face and abruptly end it , is an epic fail on the writers part and anyone else at GH who played a part in ending it . Jacqueline did an outstanding job and deserved better . Why ask for the viewers comments , it doesn’t appear they are heard at all.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Cullum’s Got Plans to Keep Brennan Out of His Way
On General Hospital, the Wednesday, May 13 episode saw Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) plotting to keep Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) from ever being a problem for him again, as Lucas (Van Hansis) reveals his hopes for a plan to rid the world of Cullum and his co-conspirator, Sidwell (Carlo Rota) in one fell swoop.
At the hospital, Nina (Cynthia Watros) is still freaked out by what she did by jabbing Jack with the dose of medication meant for Drew (Cameron Mathison). Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) comes to the hospital to try to get her mother to get a grip and then heads out to do damage control.
Cullum arrives and questions Nina about Jack’s medical condition. Nina lies and tells Cullum he should talk to Dr. Lucas Jones about Jack. In a tense exchange, Cullum shows Lucas he has documents that make him Brennan’s medical proxy and wants an update on his condition. Britt stumbles upon the scene and comes up with a fake emergency in another patients room to pull Lucas away from the WSB director.

STARING MY BOYFRIEND’S KILLER IN THE FACE
Now alone in the hallway, Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) warned Lucas that if he acts like that around Cullum, he will get suspicious. Lucas says they should just tell Sidwell that Cullum stabbed Marco, so Cullum will be killed and Sidwell would be sent to prison. Lucas drops the idea realizing if Cullum dies Britt cannot get her hands on her Huntington’s disease medication. However, Lucas warned Britt how everything would explode once Sidwell found out that Cullum killed Marco, so they have to be certain that they have the evidence that Cullum’s the culprit.
Inside Jack’s room, Cullum tells an unconscious Jack that his stroke may have saved his life, because he planned to kill him. Meanwhile, Willow arrived at Wyndemere to see Sidwell. She explains that Jack accidentally got the dose of Drew’s medication and kept her mother’s name out of it. Sidwell is livid.

TWO MEN HAD “STROKES” AT MY HOUSE!
Willow thinks it’s time to stop drugging Drew so that people would be focusing on his recovery, rather than the odds that two different men had “strokes’ at Drew’s house. Willow threw the responsibility back on Sidwell telling him that he needed to figure out a way to make sure Drew didn’t expose them. Next, Sidwell reminded Willow that he gives the orders around here and not her. For good measure, he threatens that if they were exposed, she would have the most to lose.
At the end of the episode, and at Wyndemere, Sidwell informed Cullum that Brennan had been dosed with Drew’s medication. When Sidwell declared that things would go from bad to worse when Brennan wakes up and out of his locked-in state, then Cullum fired back, “Then he can’t come out of it.”

Meanwhile, Willow unexpectedly shows up at Michael’s (Rory Gibson) office while Jacinda (Paige Herschell) is there. She demands to talk to her ex-husband now, as the photo of Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow looking close snapped by the private eye is sitting on Michael’s desk.
So, do you think Sidwell should be the one to kill Cullum and then be carted off to prison … 0r, would you like to see Willow get caught for murdering someone since she got away with shooting Drew? Share your thoughts via the comment section. But first, check out the threatening exchange between Willow and Sidwell from today’s GH.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Rocco is Coming Apart at the Seams
On the Tuesday, May 12 episode of General Hospital, Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) was at its epicenter and the secret which is destroying him. Previously, Rocco shot WSB Director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) in the back to stop him from killing Jason (Steve Burton) and to save Britt (Kelly Thiebaud).
However, the consequences of Rocco’s actions are weighing so heavy on him, that now he is starting to crack, and with good reason! While Rocco has been suffering in silence, he is wracked with guilt over Jason taking the fall for him, being carted away by the WSB, and worse yet, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) losing his father.
While Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) confronts “Nathan” (Ryan Paevey) about how he covered-up and “advised” Lulu (Alexa Havins) to stay quiet about the night on the pier which saw Rocco shoot Cullum, Dante can clearly see that the man in front of him seems off. His responses and demands and insights are not those of the good-natured “Nathan.” Will Dante be the one, or the last to know that “Nathan” is really Cassius Faison?

STAY AWAY FROM MY SON
In yet another confrontation, Lulu and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) go at it over Rocco. Lulu blames Britt for Rocco being on the pier at all that night, because Rocco cares about Britt, and she warned her not to get close to Rocco, but Britt did anyway.
Then, at the Quartermaine boathouse, Rocco was shocked to learn that Danny overheard Sonny saying that Jenz Sidwell was responsible for Jason getting taken away, and confided in Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) the intel several weeks ago. Rocco tried to cover his guilt as Danny and Charlotte explained they hadn’t confided in him because he has been so withdrawn lately.

ROCCO AND DANNY AT ODDS
Next, Danny asks Rocco to help him and Charlotte break into Wyndemere. Danny is determined to get info on Sidwell to try to find Jason. It’s at that point Rocco loses it. He shouts that Sidwell is a dangerous man and Danny needs to stay away from him.
In the most surprising turn of event, Rocco threatened both Charlotte and Danny that if they tried to sneak into Wyndemere he would turn them in.
Danny loses his cool and firmly tells Rocco, that unlike him, he didn’t have parents to clean up his problems for him and told Rocco to stay out of his way. As Rocco walked away, he asks Charlotte if she was coming with him. When she refuses, he tells the both to screw off.

THE ONLY PERSON I CAN TALK TO
Later, Britt returns to her room at Bobbie’s and finds Rocco waiting for her. He begins to share with her how freaked out he has been feeling over shooting Cullum. Britt hugs him and attempts to comfort Rocco letting him know he is a hero for saving her life and Jason’s. Britt tells Rocco she can talk to her anytime, as the two hug one more time. We fade to black.
Finn Carr delivered another excellent performance within his storyline. It’s clear GH made the right call by giving this young actor the ball with such a high stakes dramatic and emotional storyline to play.
So, do you think Danny will find out what Rocco did and come after him for letting his dad take the fall for shooting Cullum? Do you think Rocco will continue to turn to Britt, further upsetting Lulu? Will Dante get a clue about Cassius? Share your thoughts in the comment section. But first, in case you missed it, check out the emotional moments between Rocco and Britt on yesterday’s GH below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Nina is Frantic, Sonny is Mistrustful, Chase and Willow are Being Framed
The highly-anticipated Monday, May 11 episode of General Hospital picked right back up with the drama; which also sets the tone for today’s next installment of the ABC daytime drama series.
In another excellent performance by Daytime Emmy winner, Cynthia Watros, Nina is watching things unravel right before her eyes, and she is always playing defense to try to cover for the events that just transpired.
Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) ends up on the floor of Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) house unable to move after Nina injected him with the paralytic drug dose meant for Drew. Her intended target was Valentin (James Patrick Stuart), but during the Jack/Valentin Brawl, she struck the wrong guy! Valentin helps Nina turn Brennan on to his back and then makes his exit before anyone sees him as she calls the paramedics who rush Jack to GH.

MAN DOWN
In the meantime, Drew, who has overheard all the screaming in the other room, starts to have mobility in his hands and is trying to reach for the phone since his weekly dose went to Brennan instead of him. Now at the hospital, Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) has questions for Nina on how Jack ended up like this; which Nina claims one minute they were talking and all of sudden he dropped to the floor.
A panicked Nina calls Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), who went out for a run and ran into Chase (Josh Swickard). She tells her daughter using cryptic words that Jack got the dose of meds meant for Drew. Alarmed, Willow runs back to Drew’s, but not before having conversations with Chase about how she will help ensure he and Brook Lynn have the best chance at keeping baby Phoebe, after all, they had been through so much when she lost their baby.
SNAPS TELL ALL?
The moments of closeness between Willow and Chase are snapped by a photographer or someone hiding in the bushes as it seems like Michael’s plan to implicate Willow and Chase by making it look like their having an affair is underway. How far will this go?
Meanwhile, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) went at Lulu (Alexa Havins) for keeping him in the dark about Rocco (Finn Carr) being the person who shot Cullum and their elaborate cover-up. Things get worse when Lulu mentioned “Nathan” also knows and helped Rocco the night on the pier of the shooting. Dante is livid that as Rocco’s father, she felt he could not be trusted, and it was for him to figure out how he would navigate the information to protect their son; even if he is the police commissioner. Lulu also shared she did not want to tell him, because of what happened when Michael went to prison all those years ago.

BROTHER TO BROTHER
At Ava’s (Maura West) art gallery, Sonny (Maurice Benard) with gun in hand, rails at Ric (Rick Hearst) for lying and deceiving him. Ric confesses he was being dishonest, but not about anything to do with Sonny or the business. He shows Sonny the secret art transaction he was working with Ava. The reason is, he wanted to surprise Elizabeth with it as they have a special weekend planned. Ric explained that the sale had to be be done covertly because of a legal conflict involving the seller’s divorce. Eventually, Sonny lowers his gun. Cooler heads prevail and the two brothers hope there will come a time where Ric’s loyalty to Sonny will never be in question.
Carly (Laura Wright) learns what happened to Jack from Valentin, and feels badly for Jack. Valentin also tells her Jack does not know where Josslyn is and now that he is incapacitated that means that Cullum will take over the day to day of the WSB bureau in Port Charles and things are about to get worse.

In the final moments of the episode, Willow runs into Drew’s house and stops Drew from dialing the phone near his wheelchair. She scolds her husband and says, “Looks like no one can be trusted to keep an eye on you except me.” we fade to black.
So, what did you think of the performance of Cynthia Watros? How much longer can Nina and Willow get away with what they have done to Drew and now Brennan? Elizabeth already mentioned to Lucas, what are the odds that two men have the same medical issue at the same house. Are you glad Willow and Chase are being framed, or annoyed by it?
