Gio | GH, ABC

Brook Lynn Breaks Down Over Her Baby

Over at the Quartermaine docks, Brook Lynn is a teary mess thinking about the son she gave up—the same one she’s been pretending to forget for years. And guess what? It’s his birthday. Cue the waterworks. Chase catches her mid-cry and she spills that she can’t stop dreaming about the boy finding her one day. But just when you think she’s ready for a reunion, she slams the door shut. Nope. He has to come find her. Classic deflection, but Chase eats it up and calls her a great mom. Honestly? He’s not wrong, but let’s not pretend this isn’t eating her alive. Oh, and she bounces because rehearsal calls. Priorities.

Gio’s Birthday Bash... That He Doesn’t Even Know About

While Brook Lynn is crying about her son, that son—yes, Gio—is over at the Nurses Ball rehearsal making little Donna's Disney dreams come true. Sonny pops in and Gio ends up playing “Twinkle Twinkle” like a pro. Donna twirls, books him for her party months in advance (girl’s got taste), and asks when his birthday is. Spoiler alert: it’s June 4th. Lois, who knows exactly what that means, gives him a quiet “Happy Birthday” like she’s not dying inside. You’re not slick, Lois.

Lois and Chase Compare Notes

Lois runs into Chase at the boathouse and—shock—she’s also brooding over her grandson’s birthday. She opens up about how proud she was of Brook Lynn’s strength when she gave up the baby, but wonders if she made a massive mistake. Chase tries to comfort her with the usual “you did your best” line. Cute, but it’s clear this family is about to blow up when the truth drops.

Lulu’s Got Receipts and Cody’s All In

Lulu, who’s basically GH’s queen of quiet chaos, is deep in her investigative mode. She’s sniffing around an adoption agency that, plot twist, hasn’t been open since 1987. So yeah, Brook Lynn is lying through her teeth. Lulu spills all to Cody, who’s absolutely floored to find out Brook Lynn gave birth to Dante’s son and kept it secret. He’s furious, and honestly? Rightfully so. Lulu admits she tried to stay out of it, but Dante’s got a whole child he knows nothing about. Cody jumps on board Team Truth and Lulu finally has someone in her corner. About time.

Dante’s in Full-Blown Dad Rage Mode

Meanwhile, Dante is out here turning Gio into a scapegoat for everything short of global warming. He’s grilling Rocco about that beach party incident like he’s a prosecutor on a mission. Rocco, bless his brave little heart, admits he’s the one who got himself into trouble. Gio? He was just there, trying to help. But does Dante care? Nope. He’s too caught up in his grief spiral over losing Sam and nearly losing his son. The man is projecting so hard he could power a drive-in theater.

Sonny’s Support Squad for Gio

Gio’s beating himself up, and Sonny steps in like the mobster therapist he is. He tells Gio to stop blaming himself—Dante’s just scared and lashing out. And if Gio ever finds himself in a mess again? Don’t call Dante. Call Sonny. That’s some classic Corinthos loyalty right there.

Alexis Has No Time for Ric’s Nonsense

Ric tries to sweet-talk Alexis with business talk, but she’s done playing. She hits him with embezzlement accusations and kicks him out like a boss. Ric warns Ava won’t back down, and Alexis coolly promises to drag them both to prison. Good luck with that power struggle, Ric. You’re outmatched.

Liz Is in Love... and Deeply Paranoid

Liz is all gooey-eyed with Lucky again, but don’t get excited. She admits to Lucas that while she loves him, she’s terrified. Why? Because Lucky’s the “ride off into the sunset” type, and she’s the “stay and build a life” type. Girl, this relationship sounds like a ticking time bomb and you know it. Lucas gently suggests talking to Lucky, but Liz doesn’t want to hear empty promises. Honestly, smart move.

And the Car? Gone. Just Gone

Alexis and Lucky roll up to a storage unit to check out Ric’s totaled car—only it’s missing. Poof. In its place? A snarky little note: “Looking for something?” Yeah, Ava and Ric are trolling now. Lucky confesses he’s known Kristina cut the brake lines and has been lying to protect her. Alexis is being blackmailed to keep it quiet, but the noose is tightening. These two better act fast before this secret explodes.
