Willow Thinks She’s Miss Marple
Let’s start with Willow, who apparently thinks jet lag from Germany makes her a super sleuth. She walks into her place only to find Carly and Nina playing a passive-aggressive game of “Who’s the Real Grandma?” Carly, with her usual fake-concern tone, claims she’s just checking on the grandkids. Willow, clearly done with everybody’s nonsense, reminds Carly that she’s the mom, and Carly needs to book an appointment if she wants access.

Carly finally leaves, probably to go meddle elsewhere, and Nina gets to play therapist. Willow starts second-guessing everything she thought she knew about Drew. Because nothing says “healthy relationship” like someone convincing you the man you love is a cheating snake. But Willow, bless her suspicious heart, isn’t buying the drama. She thinks Drew didn’t betray her—he was drugged. And not just “oops too many drinks” drugged. Like intentionally set up drugged.
Willow’s working theory? The escort at Drew’s little “shots and shame” party didn’t spike him for fun. She was hired. And if you’re wondering by who—well, keep reading, because this GH recap only gets messier.
Carly Lays Down the Law—AKA Gaslights Lulu Into Silence
Across town, Lulu is feeling feelings, and of course she picked the absolute worst moment to drop some truth bombs on Dante. Just when he’s processing that he might still have feelings for her (while very much still in love with Sam), Lulu starts doing the thing—teasing a truth without spilling it. Nothing says General Hospital like emotional stripteases.
Before she can drop the mic, Carly barges in like the queen of “timing is everything.” Dante’s over it and exits stage left. Lulu then vents to Carly that she’s ready to spill the whole truth to Dante about Brook Lynn’s baby. Carly, in full control freak mode, snaps into damage control faster than you can say “Jason’s baby mama drama.”
Carly drops a whole monologue about how Robin ruined lives with her “truth telling” and how not every secret needs to see the light of day. Lulu gets a dose of classic Carly logic: “Are you doing this because Dante deserves the truth, or because you just hate Brook Lynn’s guts?” Oof. That hit like a slap with a velvet glove.
Tracy & Lois Throw Down, Quartermaine Style
Meanwhile at the mansion of secrets and passive-aggression (aka the Quartermaines’), Tracy is in rare form. She’s grilling Lois like it’s Sunday barbecue. Tracy’s got one goal: find out who green-lit giving away Brook Lynn’s baby, and she’s betting Lois was the mastermind.

Lois? She’s not backing down. She owns it. Says it was Brook Lynn’s choice, not hers, and all she did was support her daughter. But Tracy’s not buying the “supportive mom” act. She’s convinced Lois masterminded the whole thing to keep the kid away from the Quartermaine madness.
Lois claps back hard. This wasn’t about money or power. It was about giving that baby a chance not to grow up dumped on Monica’s couch like Ned and Dillon. Tracy accuses Lois of hating the Quartermaines so much, she’d rather hand the baby over to strangers. Lois? She’s like, “Yeah, that wasn’t the reason. But it sure didn’t hurt!”

Cue the inevitable “I can’t wait until you’re out of this house” moment. These two are one flaming martini away from setting the whole mansion on fire.
Brad Has Receipts & Drew Wants Them
At the hospital, Drew’s brain is foggier than Port Charles in November. He remembers bits of the Port Charles Grill and not much else. Deanna, ever the calm nurse, suggests checking his GPS like it’s that easy to retrace a drug-induced bender, and actually it kind of is. Drew realizes he made a stop at the hospital before things went south, and his memory is slowly coming back.

Enter Brad. Oh yes, that Brad. He's been lurking with medical files and a grudge, and now he’s got the ultimate card to play. Turns out he helped Portia prep for Drew’s little drink-and-drug fiasco. Why? Because apparently messing with people’s lives is just Port Charles’ unofficial pastime.
Brad confronts Portia, who denies everything and tells him he’s the one who spiked Drew’s drink. She threatens him, of course, because nothing screams innocence like shouting “Get out or I’ll destroy you!”

Brad, being Brad, takes his drama to Drew and dangles the truth in front of him like a carrot. He knows exactly who drugged him—but he wants something in return. Because Port Charles currency is secrets, not cash.
Beach Party Gone Off the Rails—Rocco’s in the ER
At the beach party, things were all sunshine and vibes… until they weren’t. Emma loses a flash drive with all her research and freaks out. Joss—who, let’s face it, is in her sneaky era—has it the whole time and fake-finds it in the sand. Crisis averted, and Emma’s practically naming her firstborn after Joss in gratitude.
Elsewhere, things are getting dark. Danny finds Rocco passed out and unresponsive after a drinking game that went way too far. Danny and Gio scramble to hide it before anyone finds out, because obviously dragging a drunk teenager to a boathouse and pretending nothing happened is totally a sound plan.

| Danny & Gio help Rocco | GH |
Gio promises to keep it under wraps from Emma—because heaven forbid Anna Devane’s granddaughter gets involved—but things go sideways when Cody shows up. Cody doesn’t just check Rocco’s pulse, he basically declares a Code Red and hauls him to the hospital.
At General Hospital (because where else?), Rocco’s getting treated for alcohol poisoning. Cody and Gio give the rundown to Dante, Lois, and Lulu, who have rushed over faster than a Quartermaine fights over a will.

Dante’s Love Life Is a Dumpster Fire (Again)
While Dante’s trying to emotionally navigate Lulu and Sam, he now also has to deal with a son who’s knocking on death’s door because of some beachside bad choices. He vents to Lois about Lulu and Brook Lynn, and Lois, always ready with motherly wisdom and New York sarcasm, tells him to butt out of women’s drama unless he wants a front-row seat to emotional carnage.
Too late, Dante. You’re already knee-deep.
