Nina faces fallout as Curtis acts on her secret

On Thursday’s General Hospital, Nina must now deal with the aftermath of her secret fling with Drew, which Curtis may use to his advantage. Although Nina once considered keeping the secret buried, Tracy recently leveraged it in her attempt to manipulate Nina against Sonny.

With Curtis flashing back to Nina’s deception and implying that betrayal may be necessary, Nina’s trust in Curtis is on shaky ground. Whether Curtis exposes the affair to Drew directly or uses it as leverage elsewhere, Nina is poised to face consequences that may affect her relationships with Willow, Sonny, and Drew himself.

Dante and Lulu clash over Brook Lynn and Rocco

Dante and Lulu’s uneasy co-parenting dynamic continues to deteriorate as they argue over how to handle Rocco’s discovery about his birth mother, Britt Westbourne. Lulu feels Dante is being too forgiving toward Brook Lynn, who played a role in the information reaching Rocco.

Although Dante may have confronted Brook Lynn, Lulu is upset that he quickly let her off the hook. Their disagreement could also touch on how to mend Dante’s fractured relationship with Gio. Lulu suggests he distance himself from Brook Lynn for Gio’s sake. The tension between the exes highlights growing friction in their dynamic.

Sonny is pressured to make a sacrifice

Sonny finds himself cornered as questions swirl about the negative press surrounding him. He demands answers, likely turning to Curtis for the truth. Meanwhile, someone, possibly Tracy, pressures Sonny to make a personal sacrifice. With Gio’s well-being on the line, Sonny could be asked to back away from his grandson to protect him from Corinthos family dangers.

Whether this is a strategic move by Tracy or another character’s plea for protection, Sonny’s loyalty to his family will be tested. His criminal reputation continues to put his loved ones in harm’s way.

Anna grows suspicious of Vaughn and Josslyn

Anna remains on high alert as her investigation into Vaughn’s background continues. She suspects Vaughn may be tied to the WSB, especially given how perfect and unblemished his record appears. With Josslyn working closely with Professor Dalton and also spending time around Vaughn, Anna begins to consider whether Joss could be entangled in the espionage plot.

Anna forms theories that are expected to be proven correct. She may soon identify Vaughn as a WSB operative and take steps to protect those closest to the case, including Emma and Joss.

Jason and Sasha take a flight while Joss springs into action

During their flight out of the country with Daisy, Jason and Sasha share a reflective moment. Sasha urges Jason to consider his own happiness and future, hinting he deserves more than just endless responsibility. Their conversation is expected to turn introspective.

Jason could also be shaken when he sees someone at the airport who looks identical to Britt Westbourne. Meanwhile, Josslyn is also in action mode, possibly making a bold move to gain access to Professor Dalton’s lab. Whether she is trying to stop Emma from entering or uncover secrets herself, Joss is moving quickly to uncover the truth.
