GENERAL HOSPITAL: Sonny and Nina Say Their “I Do’s”, Then Michael Figures Out Who Turned Carly & Drew Into the SEC
On Friday’s episode of General Hospital, fans who thought that perhaps the ‘Sona’ wedding would be doomed, when it came to tying the knot, were proven wrong. As it turned out, in a touching intimate ceremony Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Nina (Cynthia Watros) became husband and wife.
All week long, viewers were teased with a phone call that Michael (Chad Duell) received while at the nuptials in Puerto Rico. Would the call that would implicate Nina as the person who turned in his mother, Carly (Laura Wright) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) to the SEC happen before the ceremony, during or after? Well, it happened after.
As to the wedding, Sonny and Nina shared their own personal vows. Sonny shares that he is thankful for Nina having trust him, and seeing a better man in him than he ever saw in himself. Most notably, Sonny is appreciative of Nina fighting for their love when everyone was against them.

Nina shares she tried to fight the idea of them ever being together, but she found herself falling deeper and deeper in love with him. She loves his ferocity – how he loves and fights for his children – and of course, his dance moves. In key words, Nina says she wants to leave all the mistakes of the past behind and start anew. After the exchange of the rings, the priest announces they are husband and wife.
Kristina (Kate Mansi), Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), Wiley (Viron Weaver) and Donna (Scarlett Spears) all celebrate with the newlyweds in a small intimate reception, while Michael gets a phone call from a mysterious contact. The man, who we see the back of, says the SEC was pointed towards Carly and Drew by Martin Grey (Michael E. Knight).

Michael realizes that Martin was a go-between, putting two and two together, Michael turns around and sees a happy Nina. It is then, Michael comes to the realization that Nina must have been the person responsible for the trouble that Carly and Drew have been in for months. What will be his next move now that Sonny and Nina are married?

This “marriage” will last about as long as Britney Spears’ first Vegas wedding to her high school crush.
Take her down, Mikey!
Yes, expose Nina and let Sonny see the true Nina. Let him see that Carly was the blonde hair woman in his memory/ dream all the time. Carly and Sonny belong together and can save Port Charles for what’s to come. Sonny have enemies on both side and now in his bed. Nina will try to destroy him or turn him in with her vindictive mentality. Carly will always stand with and by Sonny. That is true bond and what he needs. Nina is no match for Vu or Ciruis but Carly can go toe to toe with the best. She’ll make strategic moves when Nina will just run and cry the victim.
Does Michael tell his dad that he hired Dex to take him down and Carly knew it
And Carly shut it down as soon as she found out.
Doesn’t negate the fact that for a year Michael was scheming to send his father to prison for life.
Mikey is an angry man’s Elmer Fudd- I neither like him or respect him.
Plus, he’s a hypocrite just like his horrid mother who has ruined lives like Tony Jones and AJ Quartermaine. Are we really supposed to be enraged with Nina, who in the flush of the moment reported Carly for a crime? This was on the heels of her discovery that Carly took extraordinary measures( including bribery and unauthorized DNA testing) to keep the identity of Willow’s bio mother’s secret. It was also on the heels of Carly bullying Nina on the eve of Willow’s wedding to which Nina was not invited. Instead of being remorseful, Carly was gloating, smug and unrepentant. It’s no wonder Nina made that call- as she said aloud to herself,” I’m tired of Carly getting away with everything. Nina immediately tried to walk the call back but it was too late. At least Sonny and Nina had their beautiful wedding and no wonder what the future might hold, they’ll always have that.
Carly is a vile toxic character. First she doesn’t tell willow that Nina is her mother and vice versa. Then when Drew looks into finding Willow’s birth mother Carly pays off people to derail his investigation. All of this delays Willow finding a bone marrow transplant in Liesel but when all of this comes to light everyone forgives Carly. Then Carly commits insider trading a serious federal crime. When Nina finds out she reports it and she is the villain.
Something is really wrong here. If I were Cynthia Watros I would be sick and tired of being written as Carly’s punching bag.Cynthia deserves so much better than this as an actress. I don’t know how much input LW has into all of this but one would think that she would realize how awful her character has become.I’m sure that she is a lovely person but perhaps blind to how terrible Carly is just like a parent being blind to their child’s behavior.
So Nina let’s Carly and Sonny’s kids believe he’s dead for nearly a year. Gets Jax shot. Hides Whiny Heiny from the world, which results in that empty bar in Tricky Dick Nixon Falls getting burned down, almost getting her, Phyllis, and Sonny bbq’d in the process. Almost gets Jason & Carly killed in a car bomb at their wedding… which was only needed because of the instability in the mob, caused by Nina allowing everybody to believe Sonny was dead. Sonny finally gets his memory back, but Nina won’t let him go anyway. Then she steals Carly’s business from her, gets Drew sent to Prison, and leaves Ned with a life altering brain injury.
Oh yeah… covering up Whiny Heiny’s whereabouts also made it possible for Heiny & Victor to abduct Nina’s own Aunt Liesel. And when Jason went to rescue her, that’s when he was allegedly “killed” in the tunnel collapse on Cassadine Island. And Jason’s absence – along with Nina herself – has caused Sonny to make one bad decision after another for the last two years…..
So how is Nina a “punching bag”, exactly?
If anybody’s a punching bag on this show, it would probably be Sasha. That girl can’t get a break.
So, Nina that cut Ava’s baby from her womb, took advantage of amnesiac Sonny and let his family think he was dead, is an angel ok
And Nina isn’t vile? Oh, please! Nina is far from a victim!
I agree Queen Carly fets by with everything and Willow and Michael are hateful
Well, Greg, I’m with you on the Carly front. Yes, Nina hid Sonny from everyone and told about the insider trading. But let’s not forget that both actions were precipitated by Carly’s nastiness, inability to see any viewpoint but her own, refusing Nina’s phone calls when she tried to tell her Sonny was alive, and blocking every attempt for the Nina/Willow reunion. I’m not calling Nina a saint by any means but the level of vitriol in many of these posts is truly disturbing. And how about Carly’s attack on Ava last week: “YOU DID THIS! YOU GOT DREW BEATEN UP! I KNOW IT!” So embarrassing!
Thank you, Soaphound! Well said!
Well said, Greg. Carly is just a vile creature which is fine. But the writing afforded to her attempts to prop her up as some kind of heroine.
Minutes before Harmony died, she told Carly that Willow must never know that Nina is her mother. Asked Carly to promise that she would protect Willow!
And Carly chose to adhere to the wishes of a woman who pimped out her minor daughter to a rapist?
Well, she got away with it. For NOW!!
Sometimes people make assumptions before thinking of the full picture
Michael need to tell Sonny and Carly once he confirms with Martin or tell Sonny that it was Martin. Sonny can find out for his self that Nina is the RAT. Nina always plays the victim after she causes so much damage. Willow probably won’t speak to Nina since she love Drew. Carly may be vile but she owns and accepts her miscomings. Whereas Nina is vile and blames everyone else for her own doings. . She has done a lot of damages in Sonny family so he need to see true vindictive Nina. Anyway Sonny was seeing a blond hair women in his dream when he lost his memory and we all know that was Carly NOT Nina. So enough of Nina vindictive/victim mentality. Expose Nina for all to see. Christine can see the true Nina since she is obviously blinded. The writers have dragged this out way too long. So expose Nina so Sonny and Carly can unite as one to fight Ciruis and save Port Charles!!!!
Carly owns and takes accountability for her crimes? On what planet? Moreover, no one around her holds her accountable for her crimes.
For the record, Satan is exactly right and Nina belongs down there with him.
Just a little quibble…there is no Catholic priest on the planet that would keep marrying Sonny.
Shari, thank you for pointing out the weirdness of Sonny continuing to get married in the Catholic Church. That is even more ridiculous than a one-day SEC investigation!
Fir the record, Satan is exactly wrong. That’s why He is Satan.
Well, in the immortal word of John Lydon… “I could be wrong. I could be right”
But in this case, I’ve been right about this awful Tricky Dick Nixon Falls story all along.
Interesting rumors circulating around Hell right now…..
Could it be, that while we were all paying attention to Mikey’s reaction to his phone call from the “SEC contact” that they threw a major “Easter Egg” at us.
Odd that they actually hired an actor to be on screen for a 2 minute phone call. Even more odd than this actor was only shown from the back of his head. And because we were all waiting for Mikey to hear Nina’s name…. we might have missed the significance of that moment completely.
The clip is up on the offfical GH YouTube channel with the title “On Behalf of a Client”. Freeze the video at 2:28 where the unknown caller is on screen, and tell me what you see.
A Devil can’t be 666% sure about this, but I think I see somebody whose arrival I have been expecting in Port Charles for months now. The CEO of Pikeman himself.
Now how he would know that Nina was the one who narced out Drew & Carly…. that’s one Hell of a question. But why he would give that info to Mikey… well that’s easy enough. It would feed the pattern of chaos he’s been sowing in the Corinthos organziation ever since this whole Dex/Pikeman/Pawtuck clusterphuck began.
I didn’t like Michael threatening Marty and wish he had told Michael to go to hell. Kind of surprised he folded so easy. As others say, it was wrong what Carly and Drew did but it sure made me think less of Nina with her vindictiveness, jealousy,etc.With all her rotten behavior, I have to pity for her when and if Sonny dumps her ass.
On another note, who actually believes Blaze was there to see her Abuela? She’s got a thing for Kristina, pure and simple and it must be pretty strong for her to fly that far to see her.
I could believe that Blaze had a grandma in Puerto Rico. But considering she was at a meeting with Lucy & Maxie in one scene and then on the island all dressed up in the same episode… I’m not sure when she would have had the time to visit Abuela. Apparently it’s an 8 hour flight from Buffalo to Puerto Rico (Buffalo being the closest actual airport to where Port Charles would be) so Blaze had one HELL of a busy day.
Glad that Sonny is coming back from his Honeymoon early and hopefully Michael will tell him the truth about Nina and her big mouth.

‘General Hospital’s’ Chris McKenna On Jack’s Reaction to Carly Cheating On Him with Valentin: ‘Heartbreak and Absolute Rage and Humiliation’
The stage is set for next week on General Hospital, after yesterday’s May 1 cliffhanger, when Brennan (Chris McKenna) sneaks into Carly’s (Laura Wright) house and heads up to her bedroom, bursts in the door and finds her between the sheets, albeit at that moment alone.
However, Jack is already armed with plenty of ammo, he saw two glasses of wine in Carly’s kitchen, Josslyn (Eden McCoy) already lit the fire, by telling him her mother was seeing someone else, the WSB bureau chief then went to visit Carly’s ex, Sonny (Maurice Benard). The mobster’s reaction pretty much sold Jack that Carly must be sleeping with another man.
As Jack goes to check out the situation to confirm his suspicions, Carly and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) have just hit the sheets, after fighting their attraction once again for each other. Now comes the moment of truth that Carly has been sleeping with Brennan’s sworn enemy, Valentin.
Courtesy/ABC
In a preview of what’s to come, Soap Opera Digest spoke to both Chris McKenna and Laura Wright where they talked about the upcoming scenes. McKenna expressed, “This has been coming for such a long time.” He also previews, “Brennan comes at her pretty aggressively.”
THREE’S COMPANY
Wright added, “Carly didn’t expect Brennan to walk into her bedroom! He doesn’t have a key. It’s late at night. She thinks she and Valentin are in the clear. She sees that he’s so angry and so worried about being cheated on… but not that he’s sorry for lying to her face or because her daughter is in danger because of him!”
As to how Jack will handle the situation from here and finding out that Carly is with Valentin, McKenna confirms, to expect, “heartbreak and absolute rage and humiliation” from Jack. He’s thinking, ‘This can’t be real. This can’t have happened. I can’t be this stupid. I can’t have been this blind.’ And as to Jack’s current state of mind, coming into the situation, “Jack is drunk and a little unhinged and the audience finally gets a glimpse of what’s going on underneath that rigid exterior.”
Needless to say, the fallout will be huge, and McKenna is proud of the trios work in the scenes, sharing that Laura Wright was a fantastic as ever, and that GH’s executive producer, Frank Valentini was on the set the entire time with Laura, James and him, making this story point play out to its full effect.
So, are you excited to see how what goes down between Brennan, Carly and Valentin and the fallout? Do you think this will cement Carly and Valentin as a couple, or will Carly regret what she’s done to Jack? Weigh-in on how you hope this all plays out via the comment section below.

‘General Hospital’s’ Kelly Thiebaud on Britt and Cassius Sibling Drama, But Who Will Ultimately Blow His Cover?
On the April 30 episode of General Hospital, Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) had some choice words and warning for her brother Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) who has been masquerading as his twin, the very dead, Nathan West.
As the story has unfolded, viewers learned that Britt knew all along that when “Nathan” showed up in Port Charles seemingly resurrected with a missing 7 years of his life unexplained, that Cassius was taking his place.
Now in developments on today’s GH, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) is figuring out that this guy pretending to be Nathan is someone else, and Cassius learns from Britt, that Joss is not just a ditzy sorority girl as he claimed, but a WSB agent! The moment stuns Cassius. Are the walls about to close in on him and his charade?
Courtesy/ABC
Daytime Emmy winner, Kelly Thiebaud spoke to Soap Opera Digest, about the story point and getting the opportunity this time back at GH to work with Ryan Paevey, when she hadn’t had the chance to before.
BROTHERLY LOVE?
Thiebaud expressed on sharing scenes with Ryan Paevey, “It’s just been so wonderful to have him back and to actually work with him! When he first came onto the show (as Nathan at the end of 2013) I was kind of heading out — it was right towards the end of my contract, so we didn’t actually work together a ton. It’s been really refreshing and so much fun to really spend time together and get to know each other and work together. I think we have really great on-camera chemistry and banter with each other. I really enjoy working with him.”
With the stakes at an all-time, Thiebaud explained how she views her on-screen alter-ego’s involvement with her more hot-to-temper sibling and why Britt revealed the truth about Josslyn to him. “People finding out about Cassius would expose what she’s involved in and what she agreed to do,” explains Kelly “And now Josslyn is digging around, and she’s connected to Carly (Laura Wright) to Jason (Steve Burton) and that whole dynamic! It’s messy!”
BRITT’S MURKY FUTURE
Britt has currently also reached her breaking point with Jason being carted away by the WSB, Rocco (Finn Carr), the child she gave birth to, shooting Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) to protect her and Jason, Marco (Adrian Anchondo) being killed after trying to help her, and Cullum holding over her head getting her Huntington’s disease medication to control her symptoms, while blackmailing her into finishing the research on her father, Cesar Faison’s, final project. Thiebaud summed it up best for Britt right now, sharing, “It’s been a really tough time for her.”
So, who do you think will be the person to blow Cassius’ cover? Will it be Britt herself? Josslyn? Liesl? Brennan? Nina? Lulu? Rocco, Maxie, Cullum or someone else? Let us know your pick in the comment section.
