In the slap heard all around General Hospital, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Lucas (Van Hansis) get into a heated argument over Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), and Wiley and Amelia on Tuesday’s August 12 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. The moment came after Willow thanked Lucas for coming to her aid, when Drew showed up at the nurses’ hub at the hospital and tried to speak to her.

At that time, Lucas told Drew to leave the hospital and not harass Willow during her work hours. Later in the break room, Willow comes to tell Lucas ‘thank you’ for helping her with Drew, but Lucas is not having it. He doesn’t understand why she is still even speaking with Drew after finding out what he did at their wedding and leaving him at the altar.

Next, Willow accuses him of policing her so he can report back to Michael (Rory Gibson) and Carly (Laura Wright). Lucas goes in on Willow for not putting her kids’ needs above her own. Things get testy because Lucas also had Wiley ripped from him, when he found out Brad lied to him, and Wiley was not his child. Willow tells Lucas she sees Drew for who he is now but Lucas says she should have walked away from him at work. Things reach a boiling point for  and she bitch-slaps Lucas in the face. Afterwards, the two look horrified!

Meanwhile, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) took Scout (Cosette Abinante) from summer camp and brought her to the Quartermaines, because his sister is missing the Q side of the family and Danny and Rocco (Finn Carr). Once Drew gets a call that Scout is not at summer camp, he arrives at the Q’s, where Jason (Steve Burton), Danny and now Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) are at, and goes in on Danny, in fact, Chase (Josh Swickard) shows up, and Drew tells the officer to arrest Danny Morgan.

Back at the Four Poppies Resort, after playing husband and wife (and Josslyn flashing back to all the flirty moments with Vaughan), she comes upon him at the pool with his shirt off and a brunette lounging next to him. When Vaughan (Bryce Durfee) starts to apply sunscreen to her back, the woman is now facing towards Josslyn’s (Eden McCoy) direction, and she can see in plain view that it a very much alive Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud), and is left in shock.

So, what did you think of Willow slapping Lucas? Did he deserve it? How far will Drew take his ‘charges’ against Danny for taking Scout? And now that it’s clear Josslyn has developed feelings for Vaughan, are you on-board with them as a romantic couple? Comment below. But first, check out the scenes between Joss and Vaughan.

If I were Lucas, I would have Willow arrested for assault. Period.

That’s what needs to happen

At the very least, he should report her to management. Smacking a coworker (a doctor no less) on duty at a hospital. In the middle of a custody battle. She’s toast.

What would be great is if someone impartial (like Terry or Amy) walked in when Willow slapped Lucas. She wouldn’t see her kids until high school graduation.

Drew is a heel, but CM is playing him perfectly. Asher is getting more comfortable in the role of Danny.

Agree with all you said, but especially Drew/CM. We’re supposed to hate him. We’re supposed to loath the things he does. Is it ridiculous how he instructs people to arrest people. Of course, it’s a soap. I hope Drew does tone it down some, but he needs to be a long term pain in the you know what. And he needs to be shot. Not killed, but shot so there can be a “Who shot Drew” story. I mean the number of suspects would be about 30! That being said, I’d only want this if the writers can write a good story where the police are smart and not bumbling morons. And the trial is quasi believable.

I suspect Drew is going to be Dragon Chow by Labor Day. Not only is he going out of his way to give every mortal in Port Charles a reason to kill him, but it just fits the pattern of GH recently, where they don’t bring another major contract role on, without losing one first.

As we most recently saw with Sasha relocating to France, with Britt being paroled from Hell and showing up at the Paris airport literally the same day.

And now we have this newly formed “Legion of Dumb”. With Sidwell, the Nutty Professor, Britt herself, and now apparently Brennan’s French WSB sidekick all working for the same unseen boss. He’s going to have to show up eventually. And I’m predicting it’s going to be the same day Drew arrives in Hell. Which means very soon.

As to the identity of this unseen “boss”?? Well, all signs seem to be pointing to Victor Cassadine. And I’m sorry to say, that he seems to have gone AWOL since he was last known to be on vacation at the Cassadine family cabin in the mountains near the Lake of Fire.

Those eternally damned Cassadines and their security breaches! What’s a Devil supposed to do about that??

Right? Where is Amy when you need her? That would have been perfect if Amy had witnessed that. The whole town would have heard about it within an hour.

Took me a moment thinking Amy who…then I remembered the Amy we only seem to see when it is the nurse’s ball week.

I like Drew. He’s nice.

the bitch slap was well deserved and so soapy, loved it, love both characters so I’m not picking sides but Lucas had it coming, he’s been extra lately.

Yet if he bitch slapped Willow, he could be arrested for assault and battery. I disagree that he had it coming. Yes, he triggered her with the truth ( she put her own needs before the needs of her children& she’s addicted to Drew) but she could have fought back using her words. Her slapping him only validated his accusations. I love this version of Lucas. He’s been the truth teller of Port Charles lately, telling Carly, Sonny, and now Willow, the truth about their destructive pattern of behaviors. I find it to be refreshing.

I have to respectfully disagree. He may have overstepped a little with some of his tone and some wording, but he didn’t deserve the slap. He wasn’t incorrect in what he was conveying. It’s unfortunate it happened at work, but Willow shouldn’t have followed him into the break room. She should have just returned to the nurse’s station when Drew left. Lucas should not have approached Drew and Willow either. He should just leave her alone to her own self sabotage.

Yeah. He’s been “ extra” all right. EXTRA GOOD! Gotta love Lucas.

The Drew character has been all over the place from its beginning
I’m honestly not sure how to feel about any of this
Hoping that Alexis is able to support Scout remaining in Port Charles

In Wednesday’s episode, Drew was absolutely wretched. I too hope Alexis takes him to court and wins. Speaking of other court matters: Marco has lost points with me running to his Dad with intel about Willow.

Lucas deserved the slap. He and Lulu are peas in a pod. When did Spencers become moralizing busybodies? It’s not believable that Lucas and Lulu would be so preachy and rigid, and it’s making these two excellent recasts’ jobs harder than they need to be.

Hypothetically speaking about fictional characters just for fun…wink, wink: Two Spencers who have deserved their smacks are Lulu and Carly. Lucas hasn’t earned any smacks yet in my opinion. A non-Spencer who deserves the bleep smacked out of him daily is Drew.

Great response, Carrie. I do not like the phrasing,” deserve the slap.” Physical violence is never the answer and if the genders were reversed, you can bet Lucas would be in big trouble. While I love Nina and despise Carly, I did not like it when Nina slapped the hell out of Carly.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob

Published

By

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!”

Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.

Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael. She tells her, “Pick out your most seductive suit.” Soon, we see Serena in her bathing suit at the Metro Court face to face with Michael.

Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ask Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), “What did you do?” We also see Michael asking the same thing of Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. 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.

Finally, in the pick-up from last Friday’s cliffhanger, an emotional Jason (Steve Burton) continues to tell Sonny (Maurice Benard) that he cannot work for him anymore. Sonny ask, “So that’s it? You’re Out?” We fade to black.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80

Published

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.
