Johnny arrives at the ER with a serious gunshot wound.  While Johnny struggles in the ER, Sonny claims he wanted peace, convincing Dante that he shot Johnny in self-defense. Ronnie disposes of Johnny’s gun into the river. Ronnie arrests Sonny and tells Dante that Sonny lied and Johnny was found unarmed. Brenda refuses Von Schlegel’s offer to be the face of Franco’s art masterpiece.  Jax warns Claire about Sonny’s patterns with women. Through a gunfight, Jason helps rescue Sam from Lopez and his men, but the couple runs into trouble when a police officer stops them on the side of a dirt road. Patrick finds Emma with Lisa back at their home.  Lisa makes a veiled but very unsettling threat. Sonny continues to plead his innocence that he shot Johnny in self-defense and asks his son to uncover the truth. Sonny and Diane are surprised when Claire reveals her evidence of recorded conversations in which Sonny planned to murder Johnny and then claim self-defense. While Johnny is in surgery, Lucky’s investigation leads him to question the absence of Johnny’s gun. Michael pleads his father’s innocence to Jax and Dante. Brenda is pressed to give Murphy an answer to his marriage proposal, but she remains noncommittal. Jason and Sam act their way out of getting arrested carrying contraband. Sam twists her ankle and Jason carries her safely to a wooded campsite and they share a romantic evening by firelight. Patrick and Robin confront Lisa for essentially kidnapping Emma, but delusional Lisa feigns innocence.  Patrick confesses his infidelity and Robin is shattered.  Robin kicks Patrick out.  Kristina stands vigil outside the ICU after Johnny’s surgery.  Ethan arrives and assures Kristina she is not to blame for her father shooting. Jason and Sam come under fire. Lisa overhears Robin telling Maxie that she kicked Patrick out.  Maxie counsels Robin not to rush to judgment. Maxie asks Lucky for help in digging up dirt on Lisa. Robin warns Lisa that if she comes near Emma again, she will kill her. Lisa approaches Lucky at the PCPD saying that Robin threatened to kill her. Robin melts down on Patrick in front of everyone at the hospital. As Dante and Lulu are about to reconcile, Brook Lynn shows up insisting that just because Dante was drugged, it doesn’t discredit the fact that Dante truly wants her.  Lulu suggests they take a break, but Dante works hard to convince Lulu otherwise. Dante and Lulu make love. Michael discovers Carly is paying Brook Lynn to seduce Dante, and he confronts her. Nik overhears Liz admitting that she will always associate Wyndemere with betraying the love of her life.

Sonny, faced with serious murder charges, maintains he shot Johnny in self-defense.  Unable to get in touch with Jason, Sonny asks Dante—not as a cop, but as his son—to believe him. Sitting at Johnny’s bedside, Olivia begs Johnny to live so she can tell him how much she loves him and so they can be together. Trapped, Jason and Sam barricade themselves inside the cabin while Lopez’s men continue to shot at them. Patrick begs Robin to give him another chance, swearing he loves her – but Robin refuses Lisa files a report with Lucky that Robin threatened to kill her, and she believes her life is in danger. Lisa discovers her locker trashed and covered in blood. Brook Lynn denies Michael’s accusations, giving nothing away that Carly put her up to breaking up Dante and Lulu.  Lulu confronts Brook Lynn and warns her to stay away from Dante. Nik makes an unselfish move and arranges for Elizabeth’s sister, Sarah, to invite Elizabeth and the kids to come stay with her.

Dante tells Sonny that he believes his story. As Diane berates Sonny for trusting Claire Walsh, Sonny flashes back to the time he discovered Brenda wearing a wire. Brenda reminisces of the time Sonny and her first made love.  Brenda accepts Murphy’s marriage proposal, and they make plans to return to Rome. After a passionate kiss with Sam, Jason decides to slip out a side window for a sneak attack on the Lopez’s men. Lisa immediately blames Robin for trashing her locker. Both Robin and Patrick recognize they are dealing with someone who is mentally deranged. Despite all of Patrick’s apologies, Robin will not forgive him. Lisa throws herself in front of Robin’s moving car, making it seem like Robin tried to run her over. Brook Lynn admits to Lulu she is officially giving up on Dante – but Lulu does not buy it. Brook Lynn bluffs to Carly that she succeeded in breaking up Dante and Lulu so she will pay her.

Could Kristen Vaganos and Josh Kelly Be Exiting ‘General Hospital?’

Published

Josh and Kristen

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.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Trina Reminisces About Spencer, Soon After Roses and a Note from Her ‘Biggest Fan’ Arrive

Trina and Spencer

General Hospital fans know red herrings when they see them. That the obvious choices, are usually not the culprit when a soap opera tells the story of an obsessed stalker. The soap trope always cast doubt on a laundry list of potential suspects until one day the actual reveal occurs!

The latest soap obsession is the character of Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali), the young singer who has been performing alongside her recording label mate Gio Palmieri. (Giovanni Mazza). The duo are back for another gig at the Cat’s Eye Lounge on the Tuesday, October 13 episode of the ABC daytime drama series.

After a sound check, where someone is watching Trina through the window, she is greeted by Ava (Maura West) and Trina’s current beau, Kai (Jens Austin Astrup).  Later, while talking to Emma (Braedyn Bruner) about Emma’s thoughts on moving in with Gio, Trina admitted she wasn’t ready to move in with Kai just yet.

ROSES ARE RED …

It’s at that point, for the very first time in a very long time, Trina mentioned the name of Spencer. Trina recalled the time she was ready to move in with him when she and her beloved late boyfriend were going to move to Paris.  With sorrow in her voice, Trina told Emma. “Take the leap. Because life doesn’t always give you a second chance.”

In a recent interview on the Michael Fairman Channel, Tabyana Ali had mentioned that while she is being kept in the dark as to who is her on-screen stalker, will turn out to be she loves the idea of turning it out to be Spencer Cassadine, as do many GH fans who have begun to speculate heavily that the story could reveal a very much alive Spencer. In story, Spencer went overboard and into the Seine River in Paris to his presumed death back at the end of January 2024.

As today’s episode continued, Quinn arrived (Jequon Jackson) and questioned Kai, if he was at all bothered by the growing closeness between Trina and Gio. Kai says he is not.

BACK FROM THE DEAD?

After Trina and Gio perform, Emma brings over to the table a bouquet of roses for Trina, that had been left outside from her “biggest fan.” Trina assumed the flowers were from Kai. He says he did not send them. Quinn just stares at Trina.

So, do you think the stalker could turn out to be Spencer, trying to get back to Trina because he loves her so much? How would you feel about a Spencer Cassadine recast? Do you think Trina mentioning Spencer today was a red herring or dropping a hint that it could very much turn out to be him that is the ‘fan’?  Let us know in the comment section, but first check out some of the key moments from Trina’s stalker story on Tuesday’s GH below, followed by our conversation with Tabyana Ali.

Parry Shen and Lydia Look

In a surprise appearance on the Monday, October 12 episode of General Hospital, Parry Shen and Lydia Look returned to the canvas as Brad Cooper and Selina Wu, as the Wu crime family was bidding for the Port Charles piers up for auction!

Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Ric (Rick Hearst) are completely floored when Selina strolled into the Metro Court conference room with her nephew and former GH lab tech, Brad Cooper, by her side.

This is the first time GH viewers have seen the character of Selina Wu since back in July of 2025. Previously, Sidwell (Carlo Rota) framed Selena for the firebombing of Charlie’s pun that put Sonny’s daughter Kristina (Kate Mansi) in grave danger. GH fans recall it was the late Marco Rios (Adrian Anchondo) who saved Kristina from the fire. In story to avoid Sonny’s wrath, Selina fled the country.

SURPRISE NEW PIER OWNER IS REVEALED

When Selina entered the conference room on today’s GH, she told Sonny the entire Sidwell debacle was “water under the bridge,” and he agreed. “I have no issue with you,” Sonny said in return.

In order to secure her bid for the piers, Selina explained Brad stepped in to make the necessary arrangements while she was trying to get herself get back to the United States. Sonny tells Brad, “You’re not going to get those piers!”

When it’s time for Ezra Boyle (Daniel Cosgrove) to reveal the winning bid for the piers, seated in the room are potential buyers: Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), and JJE executive, Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel).

Suddenly, Ezra reveals that JJE secured the piers and the winning bid as Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) made a surprise entrance as the new pier owner. How did Josslyn do it? Watch the clip below where prior to the final bids being announced, the WSB agent rigged the computer system!

So, glad to see Brad Cooper and Selina Wu back in action? Do you hope they stay for a bit? What do you think of Josslyn getting the piers? Is this how she sets out to destroy Sonny? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
