GENERAL HOSPITAL: Michael Gives Willow an Ultimatum, Drew Gets Duplicitous with Lila’s Ring, Lulu’s Hopes of a Reunion with Dante Blow Up In Her Face
On the Thursday, May 29th episode of General Hospital, relationships come apart at the seams as any chance to reconciliation or conciliatory attempts are thrown out the window.
First, Michael (Rory Gibson) lays down the terms to Willow (Katelyn MacMullen). He will not let her in the front door to see their children, Amelia and Wiley. She cries and the kids belong with her, but he disagrees. She goes on to say that she’s been their only parent for months. Michael says she also uprooted them to move in with her lover, Drew (Cameron Mathison). Michael tells Willow she’s been putting her desires above the children’s needs and it’s going to end now.
Michael gives Willow an ultimatum. Either she breaks up with Drew and move out of his house, or he will sue for complete custody. In tears, Willow runs back to Drew’s car. Drew tells her she will not lose her children and not to trust Michael. Suddenly, Willow decided to end her marriage by officially removing her rings, one of which is the one Lila gave to great grandson Michael to slip on Willow’s finger when they were a happy couple.

Drew sees Lila’s ring and salivates over the fact that he now has the prized possession from the matriarch of the Quartermaine family. He says he will save the ring and pass it down to Amelia one day (which is kind of odd when if he was going to be sneaky, wouldn’t he give to his daughter, Scout? But we digress). Next, Drew says to Willow that she should have no fear. They will dig up whatever Michael is hiding and weaponize it against him.

Meanwhile, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) has shown up at Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) front door, pissed and upset about Lulu’s part in Gio (Giovanni Mazza) learning that he and Brook Lynn (Amanda S are his biological parents. The two get into a massive fight over the fact that Dante views Lulu’s efforts to bring the truth out as a vendetta against Brook Lynn. She tries to explain it wasn’t about Brook Lynn, and she didn’t set out to uncover the truth about Gio’s paternity, but she put all the pieces together, and thought he should know.

Dante fires back if Lulu thought by telling him about Gio, she would win him back? Lulu thought he deserved to know the truth, but he says it just made everything worse. She swears she didn’t do this to get back together with him and now says she wants nothing more to do with Dante ever again. Dante says he’s going to be the one to tell Rocco (Finn Carr) that he has a brother, and warns her to stay away from Gio. Dante exits and Lulu cries.
So, what did you think of Michael’s ultimatum to Willow? What did you think of Drew taking (or holding on to) Lila’s ring? Are you glad that Dante went in on Lulu for her part in Gio learning the truth out Dante and Brook Lynn being his parents? Comment below, but first check out the key scenes between Michael and Willow from yesterday’s GH.
Poor Scout. She’s still in the MetroCourt ballroom waiting for somebody (anybody) to take her home. The writers made it a point to say Spinelli took Donna home. Maybe Drew should have said Molly was taking Scout back to Alexis’.
Another stellar episode – from start to finish. The new Michael (Rory) is knocking it out of the park. I loved everything he said to Willow. The scenes with Dante and Lulu were excellent as well. With Lulu denying she did it for the love of Dante was crazy, considering she has told everyone since Charlotte’s return that he deserved to know. Speaking of Charlotte, it is crazy so many weeks were spent to bring her back to Port Charles. Since she returned she hasn’t appeared on one episode
Tracy continues to be the MVP of the show.
Loving the new MIchael. Take Drew down and win full custody of those kids. Team Michael all the way
Rebecca1 and Violet Lemm where are you both? Your comments are missed. Hope you both are well
So glad Lulu finally got what she deserved. Dante telling her that she needed to “mind her own business” seemed to finally get through to her.
New Michael fits right in and is fantastic.
I agree. I’m so glad Dante pushed back on her. Now what will she do with all of her free time since she’s not meddling in the Brook Lynn/Dante baby situation. I was really hoping she would be more likeable. And the new Michael is awesome! Brings great energy to the scenes he is in. And why wasn’t Mayor Laura at the Nurse’s Ball?
Lulu got what was coming to her. For the moment, she lost the person she supposedly was trying to help! Is Willow’s awakening next?
Lulu got what she deserved. That will last for three weeks, and then Dante and she will be all cuddly and lovey-dovey like it never happened. The same goes for Willo and Michael; it has been the same for all the love disasters. If that had happened to me, it would be: you’re out of my life forever, and it would be so, but that never happens on a soap, they always get back together, oblivious of the unforgivable dirty deeds done to them by a loved one.
I feel that Lulu started out well intended but during the days leading up to the great reveal, she started smugly smiling as she spoke to Cody about her plans to reveal Gio as BLQ’s and Dante’s son. She took the humanity out of her plans and it all became a some game to her. And in the aftermath there has no self- reckoning as she doubles down trying to justify her actions.
I’m sorry but LuLu deserves what she gets. She wanted to hurt Brooklyn. She made that clear from the beginning.
Lulu has been so selfish during her second chance at life.
Explosive end of month! So many stories have turned the corner. Now what will happen? I think GH’s writers are doing a great job on so many fronts. I love the new Michael and think he’s a great fit! I’m still wondering how the custody trial will end. I expect someone to expose Drew and Nina’s affair and that Sasha is carrying Michael’s child. That should stir up some dust.
I wouldn’t be surprised if somehow the kids are split up and Wiley ends up with Lucas again even if temporarily. Only because of how the writers had Lucas go to Willow and tear into her regarding the kids. And how they showed Lucas’s sadness during Wiley’s segment at the nurses ball.
He’s awesome, so far he plays the role super awesome, why is General Hospital, putting out there about the baby, when we’ve been waiting so long for Drew and Nina’s to come out, makes me sick

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob
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.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80
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.
