GENERAL HOSPITAL: Martin’s Plan Goes Bust When Tracy Confronts Ronnie with Monica’s Real Will; and She Winds Up with the House!
It was victory for Tracy and all’s well that ends well, or is it? In the pick-up on the Monday, November 3, episode of General Hospital, after Tracy (Jane Elliot) find’s Monica’s real last will and testament amongst Alan’s diplomas, when she opens it, she reads a letter from Monica saying she left the will with Alan’s things if there were any disputes, because she knew that all of people, Tracy would find it.
An emotional Tracy cries as she reads Monica’s letter to her, and vows to kick Ronnie Bard (Erika Slezak) to the curb. However, it’s a race against time. Back at the Qs, an obnoxious Drew (Cameron Mathison), is trying to get Ronnie to sign the document of ownership of the house to him, but Ronnie continues to stall. Suddenly, our hero, Outback steals the papers, and the dog runs off.
Ronnie says they should go make another copy and until then she will leave. However, Drew is insistent they get the original and she sign ASAP. All of sudden, Cody (Josh Kelly) comes looking for Outback, then Ned (Wally Kurth), Olivia (Lisa LoCicero), Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) gather in the living room.

Drew has a big tandrum where he unleashes all of his venom at being aced out of the house, and his family previously, and how Monica was his mother, too. Brook Lynn fires back at him that he isn’t wanted in the house for all his despicable actions. Boasting that he makes the decisions now, he want them all thrown out on their asses.
THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE … OR WILL IT?
Suddenly, Cody returns with the chewed up papers, but according to Martin, who is pressing that this get signed now, they are still OK to use. Drew gives them back to Ronnie to sign. Suddenly, Ronnie tears up the papers. Next, Tracy comes running in to the mansion with Monica’s actual will in her hand. Martin thinks it’s a forged, but Michael (Rory Gibson) says it’s notarized.
Finally, Ronnie fesses up. The will isn’t real and blames Martin for starting the whole mess. Ronnie explains that Martin approached her about giving her sister’s estate to someone worthy. However, at first, she wasn’t going to go along with it, but she changed her tune after her confrontation with Tracy inside the Quartermaine crypt. She admitted that Tracy was so awful to her that she couldn’t stomach her having the house. Realizing the error of her ways, Ronnie says now Monica’s real wishes can be honored.

Ned says there’s more to this! Why would she sell the house to Drew? That’s when she admits that Martin was blackmailing her. To defend himself, Drew says he knew nothing about Martin’s machinations. Tracy orders Drew to get out of the house! Next, Tracy tells Chase to arrest Ronnie and Martin. Just then, Brook Lynn and Olivia come to the defense of Ronnie. Tracy then decides she still wants Martin arrested. Chase cuffs Martin and leads him out of the mansion while Ned says he has something else in mind for the shady lawyer.
At the end of the episode, an angry Drew shows up at Alexis’ (Nancy Lee Grahn) office and sees Sonny (Maurice Benard) with her, rankling his ire even more! Martin shows up at his sister Laura’s (Genie Francis) mayor’s office about to explain what has happened. Back at the Qs, Tracy hands the will to Michael, stating now the house can go to the rightful owner, Monica’s grandson. But, Michael stops Tracy, asking her if she read the will all the way through? Monica didn’t leave the house to him, She left it to Tracy!

I WANT YOU BACK
Elsewhere, Curtis (Donnell Turner) and Jordan (Tanisha Harper) have a heart to heart after he tells her, he plans on being the father to Portia’s (Brook Kerr) child, but that they are not getting back together, because he wants Jordan. Worried, she will get hurt again, Jordan doesn’t want to set herself up to lose him again. Curtis wants a second chance, The two share a kiss before he makes an exit, just as Portia is arriving to see Jordan and catches them.
So, what did you think of Tracy saving the day, outing Martin and Ronnie’s plan, and in the end being given the house by Monica? Happy Tracy inherits the Q mansion? What about Curtis and Jordan? Glad they finally kissed? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
Definitely intrigued by what Ned’s plan for Martin is. As much as I like Michael Knight, it’s time for Marty to take another leave from Port Charles.
The Qs at their finest. Time to start to counter on the “It’s Tracy’s house, Monica gave it to her” phrase. At least with Tracy as owner, Sonny will continue to not be warmly welcomed.
Gio coming to accept his Quartermaine heritage was another highlight.
Portia walking in just as Jordan &
Curtis kiss – pure soapy goodness
Absolutely not. I sincere hope they’re not writ8ng him off. Why would they? He’s hilariously snarky. I adore Martin…
Portia can’t say a damn thing! She cheated on Curtis with Isaiah and is most likely pregnant with his child. She should be worrying about what happens when evil Brad returns to town and reconnects with his bestie, Britt. She can say goodbye to her co- chief of staff position, which she doesn’t deserve.
I really appreciate you, Mr. Fairman. My TV carrier is in a dispute with Disney right now and I’m without ABC. I haven’t looked around yet for other carriers or for a free trial somewhere. I miss my GH and I’m grateful you post recaps. I look forward to watching these missed episodes whenever I have ABC again. They sound like they’re really good. I’m sorry to have missed them because I love Tracy.
get an digital antenna – you can get the local ABC over the air that way (you just wont be able to record unless you have an old school VCR)
Plus you can find them foe under 20 bucks.
Not me! I wanted Michael to get the house, so that Tracy could be endlessly reminded that “Monica gave it to him!” LOL!
Exciting stuff, this! Sad to see Eriks’ time on GH coming to an end but hope she’ll be back from time to time. And what does Ned have in mind for Martin? Interesting question. I hope he make him work against Drew ~ and for free. As for this whole Portia/Curtis/Jordan/Isaiah business, I wonder how they can turn on a dime and love someone one minute and not the next. Knee-jerk relationships seldom last.
Every time I see Portia on my TV screen, ,I think waste of space,she’s the wife you want to divorce and be renain divorced from.
Love Martin! They better not be writing him off…leaving town because he’s pissed at Laura casting him out…He absolutely cracks me up! And he got the perfect revenge on Tracy; she deserved it, lol.

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!”

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.
