Brook Lynn & Lois | GH, ABC

Brook Lynn Hits Her Boiling Point and Blows Up on Lois

Brook Lynn just thought she was stopping by Metro Court for some air—what she got instead was a bombshell straight from her mother’s mouth. Yes, Gio is her son. And yes, Lois and Grandma Gloria masterminded the “keep-your-son-close-but-don’t-tell-you-he’s-yours” plan like they were auditioning for a mafia drama.

Lois spilled every last detail about the adoption she orchestrated behind Brook Lynn’s back. From Camillia swooping in to adopt baby Gio to his whole world falling apart when she died, Lois swore she did it all out of love. But Brook Lynn was not having it. Cue the tears, the gasps, and the verbal takedown. When Dante showed up and realized Gio was his son too? That’s when the drama dialed up to soapy chaos.

Brook Lynn unleashed two decades of betrayal onto her mother, shaming Lois for lying to everyone from Gio to Olivia, and even poor Tracy. She told Lois to stay the hell away from her and her child. Period. Mic drop. And off she stormed into the night with Dante in tow to find the son they unknowingly shared.

Michael’s Surprise Sleepover Isn’t So Innocent

Elsewhere in Port Charles, Michael decided he was done playing Mr. Nice Ex and went full protective dad mode. He scooped up Wiley and, surprise, Amelia too—without asking Willow. One minute, he’s all hugs and sleepovers at Carly’s, the next minute Willow finds out Jason snatched Amelia straight from her home.

Let’s just say Willow wasn’t thrilled, especially when Jason warned her not to chase Michael. Meanwhile, Nina begged Sonny to be the voice of reason. Spoiler alert: He wasn’t. Sonny basically said, “Drop Drew or lose your kids,” and walked off like he was delivering divine truth.

Back at Carly’s, Michael was basking in the glow of reunited fatherhood. Sasha was there being supportive and serene, and Michael told her he’d stay out of her and the baby’s life… unless she changed her mind. Smooth, Quartermaine. Real smooth.

Tracy’s Family Tree Just Got an Unexpected Branch

Just when Tracy thought her evening couldn’t get worse—after being dragged through a false arrest—she came home to find Gio trying to bolt. But the plot twist of the night? Gio dropped the bomb that he’s Brook Lynn’s son and, oh yeah, Dante’s too. Tracy had a meltdown worthy of a standing ovation.

She was ready to snatch Gio by the collar and drag him into the family fold whether he liked it or not. She showed him photos, rattled off names, and basically declared that everything Quartermaine is now his. But Gio wasn’t exactly sold. His entire life was built on a lie, and no amount of old family portraits could fix that right away.

As Gio made a break for it, Brook Lynn and Dante burst in just in time for a truly awkward family reunion. Welcome to the family, Gio. Hope you like drama with your breakfast.

Cody and Lulu Realize They're the Worst Timing Team Ever

Over on the heartbreak porch, Cody and Lulu were deep in their feels, cracking open beers and regrets. They finally realized that maybe—just maybe—ambushing Gio with his origin story at the ball wasn’t their brightest moment. Lulu was convinced he overheard them, and Cody admitted they’d been so hellbent on exposing the lie, they forgot to care about the person it affected most.

Cody, who grew up feeling like an outsider, now sees that Gio’s whole world just got detonated. Lulu still thinks Brook Lynn will come through as a mom, even if Gio’s not ready to forgive any of them yet. The only thing they agree on? Gio's going to need time, space, and a whole lot of therapy.

Trina and Kai Take Their Relationship to the Next Level

And while the rest of Port Charles was going up in flames, Trina and Kai were lighting a different kind of fire. After a cozy night reminiscing about their rocky start, the couple finally made love. Post-bedroom bliss, they cuddled up and declared each other the best thing to happen in a long time. At least someone in town got a happy ending. For now.
