General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Someone is Trying to Drive Sasha Batty with Baby Daisy; Marco and Natalia Have Irreparable Falling Out
As Daisy’s christening is just around the horizon, whoever is secretly watching the little bundle of joy in her nursery is ramping up their plan on Daisy’s mother, Sasha Corbin (Sofia Mattsson), on the Thursday, June 26, episode of General Hospital.
In story, Sasha puts Daisy down in the nursery wearing a yellow onesie, when she exits, a shadowy figure is seen in the room and an upset close-up of Daisy. Downstairs in the kitchen, Sasha meets with Felicia (Kristina Wagner) and asks her to be Daisy’s godmother. Felicia says she would be honored. The talk turns to Sasha’s absent parents, Holly Sutton and Robert Scorpio, and how they are staying in touch with her. Robert does a video chat with her every morning, Holly doesn’t, but sent a gift and has been texting.
Suddenly, Sasha hears Daisy over the baby monitor so she goes to attend to her. When she arrives back in the nursery, Sasha panics when she finds her daughter facing the opposite direction in which she placed her and wearing a red-colored onesie. In addition, it should be noted in Sasha’s conversation with Felicia, she found milk in the cupboard instead of the refrigerator blaming it on new mom, “brain freeze,” but GH viewers know better.

The smart bet is that Willow (in perhaps another alter or in a fugue state) is visiting Daisy and re-arranging things to drive Sasha crazy and make her look like a bad mother, so that perhaps, she loses custody of her baby, like she lost custody of her children.

Meanwhile, at th law office of Miller & Davis, Marco (Adrian Anchondo) is paid a visit from his mother, Natalia (Eva LaRue), where he gets her to admit she’s leaving the country. Upset, Marco figures out that Sonny (Maurice Benard) orchestrated this “arrangement” with her and he fears that Sonny will actually kill her. Natalia seems confident that Sonny will come with her for awhile and get her all set up. Marco calls her delusional. Natalia insists Sonny is giving her a new life, which he will be part of because he’s promised to provide for her. At that moment, Marco goes into panic mode over negotiating a deal with ADA Turner, now that he realizes his shady mother never intended to honor it. Marco tells his mother he could go to prison.

Lucas (Van Hansis) arrives as a furious Natalia goes off on Marco. In turn, Marco warns his mother, that if she walks out now, she is no longer his client or his mother. She will be nothing to him. Natalia angrily fires back, “I already am,” and makes her exit.
Marco starts to call the police, but Lucas stops him. Lucas wants Marco to fill him in. Marco explains Natalia gave Sonny the evidence she was supposed to give to ADA Turner in the deal they worked out. He explains to Lucas that if she doesn’t show up Monday with the evidence, he’ll be locked up. Lucas says no matter what, he cannot be the reason his mother goes to prison. Lucas reassures Marco that his defense is saying that he negotiated in good faith. He also clarifies it is not on Marco if Natalia makes a run for it. Marco makes Lucas promise that he won’t say a word to anyone on this, and Lucas promises.

Later, Natalia visits Sidwell (Carlo Rota) at Wyndemere and informs him of her fight with Marco. Noting she is leaving the country, she wants Jenz to promise to keep Marco out of his “disgusting business” and not ‘doom” their son to the same fate. In the final moments of the episode, after Natalia leaves, Sidwell looks at a photo of Sonny, and then goes to the parapet and looks as evil as all get out.
So, do you think it’s Willow is moving baby Daisy around and changing her onesies, etc? What do you think about Felicia becoming Daisy’s Godmother? What did you think of the showdown scene between Marco and Natalia? Are you hoping Natalia packs her bags asap and flees Port Charles? Share your thoughts via the comment section below, but first check out the showdown scenes between Marco and Natalia from today’s GH.
I’m beginning to think that Natalia is indeed moving to a warmer climate in the near future, but it’s not going to be Belize.
Sidwell obviously doesn’t have a lot of love for his ex wife, and I wouldn’t put it past him to kill her and attempt to frame Sonny for it.
And it seems like Marco already thinks that’s what is going to happen anyway. Even Carly might fall for it, since Sonny told her that Natalia “wouldn’t be a problem anymore”. Which unfortunately is a statement that could be easily misinterpreted.
Frankly, I was hoping for a different arrival to take Britt’s place. It’s no secret who most of Port Charles would rather send down here right about now.
There had to be a reason they’ve kept Natalia around with this storyline other than the Belize plot. Otherwise, she just would’ve sauntered out of town once she was fired from Deception. Her character is more valuable dead than alive.
Eva LaRue is a good actress, but this character was doomed from the start. If Dr Maria Santos had come to the hospital instead, this would be a whole different conversation.
I think Willow is too obvious. Maybe Holly ?
I thought Holly as well, but Emma Samms typically announces when she’s making a return. A back-from-the-dead Nelle, but there’s really no space on the canvas right now for that. And luckily Heather is still out west with Steven Lars.
If Michael was able to catch Willow & Drew doing the nasty on the playroom floor, certainly a camera in the nursery isn’t a stretch.
Given all the recent security concerns on the Q estate, I’m really surprised Jason hasn’t hired Spinelli to install a state of the art security system yet. I’m sure Monica would “green light” such an initiative, since we’re supposed to pretend she’s still around and aware of what’s going on in her family.
They might want to get a few guard dogs too. Well trained, so they aren’t a danger to the children, of course.
I am pretty sure Tracy already had cameras installed all around the mansion when they kicked Drew out. Wasn’t that why he had to scale the wall to sleep with Willow that one time?
I justvunderstand why they’re never workking
I was thinking Holly—but why? So, probably not. If Willow is doing this , it is under Drew’s direction. I really think he’s drugging her—-or, it is Drew himself.
I do love Emma Samms but found her last visit with Jonathan Jackson’s return and the introduction of Sidwell lacking. Somewhat spy spy giggle giggle… and so much time wasted on the locked up card games… so I wouldn’t find her “spying” on her grandchildren out of her recent character.
Nelle? And if not Nelle herself coming back from the dead, perhaps Willow, Nelle’s twin sister, has developed a Nelle alter.
When Willow woke up and told Drew she was still exhausted, it occurred to me she might be sleepwalking. Yes, it’s crazy to think that she’s sleepwalk/drive all the way to the Qs, change Daisy’s clothes, and get back home but I’ve seen nuttier things on soaps.
And if you remember, Nelle was a gaslighter. She gaslight Carly with Morgan’s ghost. Someone is gaslighting Sasha.
I must have missed something. I don’t recall Sonny ever saying he was going with Natalia to live with her??? Sure that could happen. NOT. And I’ve never heard of going to PRISON for your 2nd DWI at least not around here (Louisiana). You probably should but you don’t. I wish Sasha would close those darn blinds in that baby’s room & sit Yuri at the door!
Sidwell is like a cartoon villain-hard to take seriously but I know we should. I hope Sonny brings him down hard.
And Sonny looked SO good when witch Turner showed up at his house. The last thing I would have been thinking of would be arresting him, ha.
No, Gloria, you did not miss anything. Sonny was clear in telling Natalia that she would be starting a new life in Belize alone. In their last scenes, those two acted like they were saying goodbye to each other. Natalia suddenly acting like the delusional, lovelorn scorned woman is clearly last minute, plot driven writing. Natalia is a highly flawed character-she is rigid, bigoted and judgemental. What she is not, however, is neurotic, naive and silly. Maybe Sonny should send her to Belize with a life sized cut out of himself. I’m sure it would fit in the carry on compartment.
The Sonny cutout idea is hilarious.
Harry, at this point, I’d think you’d agree we’d accept any reason to be rid of the Natalia character.
While Drew is despicable, he’s (an estranged) member of a core family and the show is writing him as someone you should hate. Natalia served little purpose as a living character. Good riddance.

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
