General Hospital Recap | Drew Begs for Forgiveness - Thursday, May 1, 2025 [SPOILERS]

On Thursday’s episode of General Hospital, Drew’s begging tour hits Willow’s brick wall, Joss plots like a Bond villain, and Brook Lynn is two seconds from strangling Lulu with her own headline. Let's get into it!

Nina, Willow & Drew | GH, ABC

Willow Shuts Drew All the Way Down

Oh Drew, sweetie. Trying to reason with Willow right now is like trying to negotiate with a hurricane — pointless and guaranteed to leave you flattened. Today on General Hospital, our favorite tragically misguided ex-SEAL gets iced out by Willow, who’s fresh off discovering just how deep the betrayal goes. He shows up with those puppy dog eyes, probably thinking they still work. Spoiler alert: they do not.

Willow, still reeling, lets him in only to immediately give him the emotional stiff-arm. Drew tries to make his case — that video isn’t the real him, and besides, doesn’t she know him better than that? Apparently not, because Willow clocks in with a brutal line: maybe she never really did. Ouch.

Meanwhile, Nina is lurking like a vulture who found a buffet. She’s just loving every second of Drew’s implosion. She even jumps into the conversation uninvited — and loud — just to make sure Willow remembers exactly what’s on that incriminating footage. Subtlety? Never heard of her.

Drew pleads for trust. Willow tells him that’s been her whole brand, and now she might lose her kids because of him. In Germany (where apparently the emotional revelations hit harder), Willow learned just how little Michael respects her. Now she’s back in Port Charles with a vendetta and zero patience.

Brook Lynn Wants Lulu to Vanish, Like Yesterday

While Drew’s busy crawling on emotional glass, Brook Lynn is over here absolutely unraveling thanks to one blonde with a laptop and a bad sense of boundaries. That’s right, Lulu is back in journalist mode and apparently on the verge of blowing up Brook Lynn’s life — again.

Laura, ever the mom whisperer, tries to get to the bottom of what Lulu’s so angsty about. Lulu dances around the truth — which is that she knows Brook Lynn had a secret baby and is deciding whether or not to go full TMZ with it. Laura, the voice of caution, warns her daughter not to go all divine judgment on someone else’s life. But Lulu’s on the edge, and it’s clear she’s not loving carrying this secret alone.

Over at the Q mansion, Tracy is positively delighted by the mess. She’s cackling over Lulu’s exposé like she just won bingo night. “That girl’s a national treasure,” Tracy quips as Brook Lynn seethes. She even threatens to send Lulu flowers. If looks could kill, Brook Lynn would be in cuffs.

Brook Lynn storms out, and Chase follows to play emotional support boyfriend. But even he can’t talk her down. The adoption article Lulu’s planning has her completely unhinged. Does she find her child? Does she keep pretending that chapter never happened? What she really wants is for Lulu to disappear into the nearest soap opera vortex.

And because things in Port Charles are never not messy, Chase takes matters into his own hands and storms off to confront Dante. If anyone can talk Lulu off the publishing ledge, it’s her ex. The two guys go full bro-mode, bickering over whose girlfriend is making the biggest mess. Spoiler: it's a tie.

Tracy, Gio & the Sonny-Jason Truth Bomb

While the kids are out here losing their minds, Tracy is busy mentoring Gio with a healthy dose of shade and family history. Gio’s got questions about Jason and AJ, and Tracy? She’s got opinions. According to her, Sonny’s been the puppet master of Port Charles forever, and Jason — well, let’s just say he wasn’t exactly a free agent.

She lays it all out: Sonny pulls the strings, Jason takes the fall, and somehow they all ended up in a mansion pretending to be civilized. Tracy doesn’t want the same fate for Gio, but we all know how this town works. If Sonny wants you on his team, good luck trying to stay out of it.

Joss Plots, Vaughn Questions & Emma Clocks the Assignment

Joss is back on her spy game and dragging poor Vaughn along for the ride. At the hospital, she and Emma are checking in on Trina and Kai, who’s about to go under the knife. Trina gives Kai a sweet good-luck kiss, and then it’s time to wait — and scheme.

Emma is on the brink of academic glory thanks to her extra credit work for Professor Dalton. But Joss has other plans. She corners Vaughn to update him on their not-so-legal side mission. The deal? Dalton accessed a room using a keycard, brought in a briefcase, and later met with Anna. Suspicious much?

That’s when Joss drops the real bomb: she needs Vaughn’s help to pull off a digital switcheroo. Copy a thumb drive, corrupt the data, and return it to Emma without her noticing. Vaughn, bless him, asks if she’s really cool with betraying a friend like that. Joss shrugs it off like it’s Tuesday.

Oh, and as if there isn’t enough trouble brewing, Emma invites Joss to a college party that night — because what’s a little espionage without some light underage socializing?

Dante’s Dad Duties & a Quartermaine Boathouse Disaster

As if Dante doesn’t have enough drama with Lulu and Brook Lynn, he gets a call from Yuri about a mess at the Quartermaine boathouse. Rocco and Danny apparently decided to throw a frat party in there, and it’s now a disaster zone.

Dante shows up to lay down the law. The boys get a stern “you’re old enough to know better” speech and are told to clean it up. Groundbreaking parenting, honestly. But the boys, instead of taking the L, decide to crash the college beach party later. Because why just clean up your mess when you can make another?

Drew Begs, Again

In case Drew hasn’t embarrassed himself enough today, he wraps up this General Hospital full episode recap by doing what he does best lately: begging Willow to listen. He swears up and down that he doesn’t drink, doesn’t do drugs, and doesn’t act like the guy in the video.

To prove it, he’s heading to the hospital to get a blood test. He even asks Willow to come along, hoping that some cold, hard science might save whatever dignity he’s got left. Willow, clearly exhausted by all the pleading, agrees — but don’t think for a second she’s doing this out of love. She’s here for answers, not redemption arcs.

Meanwhile, Laura pops back in to support Trina during Kai’s surgery. Dante corners Lulu and drops the hammer: she needs to back off of Brook Lynn. And in the most dramatic moment of the day, Brook Lynn confesses to Tracy that Lulu’s not just stirring the pot — she knows about the baby. The baby, y’all. Game. Set. Soap opera match.
