Things just got even juicier following the Tuesday, December 16 episode of General Hospital.  First, Nina (Cynthia Watros) who will do anything to exonerate her daughter Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) from enduring a long trial, as the prime suspect of her now husband Drew Cain’s (Cameron Mathison) shooting, had a meeting with WSB Port Charles bureau chief, Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna).

During the secret discussion, Jack wants Nina’s help in locating Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), since she seems to have a good relationship in with her ex-husband. However, she turns the tables on him. If she helps him, she wants Jack to get rid of the prosecution’s evidence against Willow: video tapes, photos, etc, anything that could incriminate her daughter. Jack threw down that evidence tampering could send him to prison if he were discovered.

In return, Jack instructed Nina to get close to Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) so she will confide in her. When Nina refused to exploit her former stepdaughter, Jack told her to leave. Stopping just short of the door, Nina asked Jack what she’d get in return if she gets more in Charlotte’s orbit. Jack promised her exactly what she asked for!

Speaking of Charlotte, she has a major emotional moment with her mother, Lulu (Alexa Havins), over missing her father, Valentin and tries to explain to Lulu her close connection to him. Clearly, they became such, when her mother was in a coma for four years. It’s hard to hear for Lulu. Charlotte confides that when she thinks of “home,” she thinks of her father. Feeling badly that she hurt Lulu’s feelings, she tries to clarify that she just has many more recent memories with her dad, than she does with her.

Fighting back tears, Lulu hopes one day Charlotte would think of this being her “home” as well. After Charlotte goes upstairs, Lulu breaks down in tears. How will she ever combat the pull her daughter has with Valentin? Will it make Lulu help the two connect much easier?

And in the final moments of the episode, Tracy (Jane Elliot) and Michael (Rory Gibson) are having a private conversation in the Quartermaine kitchen, as a shadowy figure is watching them just outside the kitchen door. Tracy tells Michael she is glad to be home, but she would have stayed in Europe if it meant she didn’t have to testify at Willow’s trial.

Just then, Michael informs Tracy about new evidence that was discovered just when it appeared that the charges against Willow were going to be dropped. Michael also is not happy about having to testify. When Tracy asked him, if that was because he didn’t want to send Willow to prison, or if he was worried about lying on the stand since they both know she saw Michael parked in front of Drew’s house just before she found Drew on the floor having been shot twice in the back! We fade to black.

So, who do you think eavesdropped on Tracy and Michael’s conversation? Chase, Martin or someone else? Then, what do you think of Nina getting involved with helping nab Valentine in return for Brennan destroying all the crucial evidence in the DA’s case against Willow for being the prime suspect in Drew’s shooting? Weigh-in via the comment section below. But first, check out the official GH teaser for today’s Wednesday episode.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Cullum Kidnaps Obrecht as Britt’s Replacement to Finish Faison’s Final Project

Published

WSB director Ross Cullum is truly as despicable villain as they come, and played with steely intensity by Andrew Hawkes. For the double agents latest crime, you need to look no further than the Friday, June 5 cliffhanger of General Hospital, where in the episode’s final moments he sneaks up on an unassuming Dr. Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) after hiding in the back seat of her car.

Next, he chloroforms her with his intent clear. He plans on forcing her to finish the last leg of Faison’s final project at Wyndemere, since her daughter Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) left town with Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) in tow to get away from Cullum!

In what led to the kidnapping, Cullum had a terse conversation with his business associate and co-conspirator on the project, Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota). It is Sidwell who is preoccupied with wanting to bring Marco’s killer to justice (not knowing it’s the man right in front of him!). Sidwell told Cullum if bringing Marco’s killer to justice wasn’t a priority for the WSB director, then why should protecting Cullum be a priority for him?

SIDWELL VS. CULLUM

The two finally put aside their differences as they have to complete Faison’s final project for it will be highly lucrative for them, useful for their mutual gains, and groundbreaking. In order to do that they need a great mind with a scientific background to finish it up and get them to the finish line since Britt as disappeared.

Later, outside of “General Hospital,” Obrecht is headed back to her car after searching Britt’s office for any clues as to the whereabouts of her daughter. But when she got in the car to drive away, that’s when the aforementioned Cullum strikes!

In other key developments, after Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) keeps inserting herself into Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn’s (Amanda Setton) life, all with the seeming pretense to pay back Chase for helping her clear her name at the trial, and standing by her, she brings good news in person about baby Phoebe’s adoption to Alexis’ (Nancy Lee Grahn) law office to Chase. Once Brook Lynn heard Chase was on her away over with paperwork, she decided to hightail it out of there for an “emergency” appointment for Deception.

As we come to find out, Brook Lynn meets up with Lucy (Lynn Herring) at the Metro Court pool, She then proceeds to inform Lucy about Willow sniffing around he husband. Lucy says she knows a thing or two about being an adulteress. Brook Lynn wants Lucy to help her send a clear message to Willow to stay away from her husband, or else!

Now below, check out the scenes before Obrecht was kidnapped where she visited Willow, Nina (Cynthia Watros) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) and suspects Willow is up to no good.

Then let us know, with Lucy taking Brook Lynn under her wing, what plot do you think the two will come up with against Willow? What do you think will happen to Obrecht? With Lucas also at Wyndemere trying to bait Sidwell into an attempted murder charge, will he winds up thrown in the secret room with Josslyn?
