On the Tuesday, April 21 episode of General Hospital, while Rocco (Finn Carr), who is doing community service at the hospital, brings a pillow into Cullum’s (Andrew Hawkes) hospital room, Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) is walking past the hospital room door, and is mortified upon the scene.

Britt sees Rocco chatting with Cullum, who tried to kill her and had Jason dragged away to parts known. Having no idea of the true background on how Cullum was shot, Britt makes up an excuse to get Rocco to quickly exit Cullum’s room. After they leave, Cullum smirks.

Next, the two head to the hospital chapel to talk privately. Rocco shared he hadn’t realized whose room he was walking into when a nurse told him to deliver the pillow. A very concerned and frightened Britt warned him to stay away from Cullum, calling him “evil.” She went on to say how Cullum was the man behind having Jason taken away by the WSB.

ROCCO COMES CLEAN

Just then, a guilt-ridden Rocco confesses to Britt that he actually followed her the night Cullum was shot to the pier and hid, but saw everything that happened. Britt is in shock, when Rocco reveals, he shot Cullum, not Jason!

In other key developments, Ethan (Nathan Dean) visits Sonny (Maurice Benard) asking for a job inside his organization, since he is down a man with Jason being gone. Ric (Rick Hearst) is there and doesn’t trust Ethan one bit. After all, Ethan has a history like his father, Luke Spencer, of working a good con job. After some back and forth, Sonny tells Ric to interview Ethan for the job.

ETHAN LANDS RIGHT WHERE HE NEEDS TO BE

After the line of questioning, Ric insists to Sonny that bringing Ethan aboard is too big a risk. Ric voices his concern that Ethan could be woking for Sonny’s enemies to help take him down and out. Sonny hires Ethan anyway, and confesses he knows Ethan is hiding something, but feels confident that he wouldn’t use Sonny’s friendship with Luke, and his father’s memory, to double cross him. Sonny tells Ric, he is doing this for Luke.

Once outside of Sonny’s, Ethan is on the phone and calls Lulu (Alexa Havins) where he admits he got a job with Sonny. Lulu is worried, but Ethan, who is glaring through the window at Sonny and Ric, tells his sister, “I’m exactly where I needed to be.”

You can catch Ethan’s “job” interview with Ric and Sonny below.

Now let us know, what angle do you think Ethan is working? Is he trying to truly protect Sonny? Is he working for the WSB and under Sidwell’s thumb? Or is something else going on? And, what do you think Britt will do now that she knows that Rocco was the person who shot Cullum? Will she try to get Jason back to Port Charles? Stay quiet, or try to take out Cullum herself? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

Ethan is Luke and Holly’s son, so of course he’s “working an angle”, as Sonny himself said. It wouldn’t make sense that he’s working for the WSB or any other law enforcement agency, because his parents told him not to trust cops.

And there’s not a snowball’s chance in my backyard that he would be on Sidwell’s payroll, after what he did to Holly & Lucky. So I will be eternally damned if I know what his agenda is, but obviously it’s one that benefits from the resources of Corinthos Coffee, LLC to help him pull it off.

There’s been some speculation on whether Ethan might be the father of baby Phoebe. The timing of his return seems about right for that. Tracy would certainly be shocked to learn that Luke’s grandbaby is now living under her roof in the Q mansion.

I think it’ll turn out that Ethan is baby Phoebe’s father and maybe he sent Delilah to Port Charles to keep her safe from someone or something.And maybe Delilah was the one Ethan was leaving a message for saying he’d be waiting on the docks at a certain time everyday waiting for that person to show up but unbeknownst to Ethan Delilah is dead.Also maybe the name Delilah is an alias that Ethan told that woman to use to make sure she couldn’t be tracked down by whoever was after her and that would explain why the police couldn’t trace that woman’s family since she was using an alias.

I’m going to take a slight detour from the subject matter and talk about the depressing, pointless story of Jordan’s accident. For so many reasons, the story is not working. The biggest weak link in this badly written storyline is the glaring fact that Donnell Turner ( Curtis)is a wooden, lifeless and monochromatic actor. Moreover, Curtis is written a self-righteous, hypocritical, somewhat narcisstic jerk. I don’t like him- I don’t root for him. But he’s supposed to the good guy- right?

Excellent point Harry – and it’s one I’ve thought about for a number of years now. The character of Curtis has the capacity to be a leading man, but Turner’s performance continually pushes me to a “why should I care” or “can we just move on” feeling.

Even when Curtis was paralyzed in the MC pool accident- golden material for most actors – DT just didn’t bring in.

Donnell seems like a nice guy and is a long time fan of the show. That said, after 11 years of playing the character, there’s little remaining in a tank that was never quite full.

Right, and when you juxtapose his bland reaction to discovering he is Trina’s father to Taggert’s anguished reaction from discovering that she is not, what you have is a tale of two actors. Donnell as Curtis always tends to be in a state of righteous indignation- he is a one more actor. His great love Jordan is going through a physical and emotional crisis but he’s laser focused on getting Isiah.

Rocco was told to tell NOBODY about what he did. So he goes and blabs it Britt?? And was I wrong, but how did Cullum know Rocco’s name when he brought him the pillow???

Cullum met Rocco at least once before so that wasn’t a stretch. Cullum also knows how Britt feels about Rocco.

Cullum seems to do his homework at least part of the time. As he proved today when he talked to Liz about her connection to Jason and their son Jake. Even knowing where Jake is currently enrolled in art school .

On the other horn there was that random run-in with Joss at Wyndemere. She even used her real name but he didn’t seem to realize she was on the WSB payroll.

Unless he was playing her all along . Which is entirely possible .

Of course his previous interest in Rocco was to find out what he actually knew about the Nutty Professor’s old lab at PCU since Rocco had previously been arrested for breaking into the lab, but didn’t really see anything of significance.

Ava

On the Friday, November 13 episode of General Hospital, Drew (Cameron Mathison) convinces Ava (Maura West) they need to get married, to each other! Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) hopes to get the DNA results on Jude (Will Traval) she has waited for, and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) secretly co-conspire to find out who in Port Charles had the infamous tick!

Here’s what went down: Drew explained to Ava that they needed to get hitched ASAP, that way, they couldn’t be forced to testify against each other in the Jack Brennan case. After initially being kind of sick of the thought of marrying Drew, he made her change her mind, by throwing out the fact that if she lands in jail Sonny (Maurice Benard) will have Avery (Ayla Bullington) all to himself.

Next, Ava heads to GH to ask Lucas (Van Hansis) to be her witness in marrying Drew. Lucas has already figured out the reason Ava is marrying Drew because it has something to do with Brennan’s death. Explaining she hates the idea of getting married to Drew, she has run out of other options. Lucas agrees to help her, but firmly tells Ava nobody would believe it was a real marriage anyway.

CAN MOLLY AND JOE STOP THE WEDDING?

At the same time, Drew asked Martin (Michael E. Knight) for a post-nuptial agreement. Martin was not happy to hear that Drew was going to marry Ava, warning that prison was a better option than tying himself to a woman like Ave Jerome.

Eventually Ava, Lucas, Drew, and Martin gathered at the city clerk’s office. Lucas comes up with a way to derail or stall the nuptials by saying that they need to wait for Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) and Avery to show up, as they should be a part of this, too.

Lucas may have saved the day, because Molly (Kristen Vaganos) and Joe (Jonathan Bennett) went to Drew’s office to serve him his warrant, but found the office door open. Next, Joe found a sticky note on Drew’s folder that revealed Drew had obtained a marriage license. A light bulb goes off in his head and he realized Ava and Drew are getting married, so he and Molly rush off to City Hall to try and stop it.

IS JUDE THE TRUE BABY DADDY?

Elsewhere, after receiving a text message that the DNA results are in at the hospital, Brook Lynn ends her discussion over Jude and baby Phoebe with Gio (Giovanni Mazza) and runs out of the Quartermaines.

Once Brook Lynn gets off the elevator at GH, she sees Jude and Britt  Kelly Thiebaud) looking might close. She quickly heads back towards the elevator sight unseen and was clearly shaken by what she saw. Earlier at the doctors and nurses hub, Elizabeth helped Dante by confirming by an ear gesture they had worked out; that the patient with the tick was Ava Jerome.

You can check out the scenes where Lucas gets a visit from Ava and he learns she wants him to be her witness in marrying Drew at City Hall.

Now weigh-in: do you think Ava and Drew will tie the knot before Joe and Molly make it to City Hall? What do you think the DNA results will show once Brook Lynn gets her hands on them? Have they been tampered with? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section.

SONNY IS READY FOR WAR

Meanwhile in the aftermath of his visit with Carly, Sonny told his brother Ric what went down when Josslyn disrespected him in front of his own daughter and hurt Avery. Since Josslyn already make it known that she no longer considers herself part of Sonny’s family, he’s decided to treat her accordingly.

Sonnys first step in payback is to take away her support system at JJE by approaching Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) again, but this time in a much less-friendly way.

Ric points out that this would go against every move Sonny made as a legitimate businessman in Port Charles and would mean he’s back in the mob? Sonny doubles down, saying Josslyn changed the game when she involved Avery. While he showed concern of how bad Carly would feel over all this year, he said he is ready to finish what Josslyn started.

At the Metro Court, Ava (Maura West) is listening to Avery explain what happened between Sonny and Josslyn and how much she hates Josslyn right now, which Ava seems to be OK with.

WILL JOSSLYN’S WORLD BLOW UP ON HER?

Speaking of Josslyn, she is on the pier still after her talk with Hudson and still crying over her confrontation with Sonny and Avery overhearing it, and what she told her sister. Lucas comes across her at the pier while out for his run.

Explaining how badly she feels for what she said about Sonny to Avery, Lucas says that eventually Avery will discover the truth about Sonny. He explains to Josslyn that even though Avery hates her now, she will come to realize that what she said about her father was the truth, and that Josslyn was not lying to her at all.

So, what do you think about Sonny ready to play dirty to take down Josslyn? How will Carly ensure her daughter does not wind up dead? Who do you think is in the right here? Is Josslyn’s vendetta against Sonny justified, at the cost of the relationships with her family? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.
