Monday

Encore episode from Tuesday, April 14, 2020

Anna (Finola Hughes) was surprised to learn Finn (Michael Easton) brought Violet a pony for her birthday. Violet’s pony is named Fletcher. Maxie (Kirsten Storms) told Peter (Wes Ramsey) she had to deal with “Hurricane Lulu” who won’t be happy Ms. Jones is now working for Deception because of Lulu (Emme Rylan) and Valentin’s (James Patrick Stuart) war for Charlotte (Scarlett Fernandez). Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) told Chase (Josh Swickward) about one of the children she reads to, Steven, who is a cancer patient being moved to hospice. It reminded her she wasn’t Wiley’s mother and didn’t have a say in his medical discussions. At GH, Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) and Michael (Chad Duell) talked about the plan for him to marry Willow to help him have a better footing in the custody case. But Michael didn’t know how he felt about coming between Chase and Willow. Sasha received a text from Chase he needed to see her. Nelle (Chloe Lanier) cornered Valentin at The Metro Court. When she hinted she could become an enemy of his if he didn’t want them to be friends (or more than friends), Valentin reminded if those documents he helped forge for her came to light her secrets would be revealed. He added he sympathized with Michael as a father trying to protect his son from her. And Nelle shouldn’t force Valentin to chose sides because he didn’t like her much to begin with. “So don’t piss me off,” Valentin warned Nelle. Peter arrived at Anna’s for Violet’s party. Robert (Tristan Rogers) asked Peter’s help in making sure balloons didn’t end up on the ceiling. “You called me Peter, is that a sign?” Peter asked Robert. Maxie met with Lulu at The Metro Court and told her she would be working with Valentin at Deception. Michael told Willow he talked with Diane (Carolyn Hennssey); the custody hearing was moved up to next week. Robert told Peter there wasn’t evidence proving August was guilty so he was willing to accept he was wrong. He suggested they mutually co-exist. Valentin warned Nelle to stay out of his way. Nelle was annoyed he decided to go the enemy route. Chase realized Sasha wanted to get Wiley away from his psycho mother more than she wanted him for herself. Maxie assured Lulu it wasn’t like she and Valentin would become friends by her working at Deception. Plus, Valentin was just an investor and if he could do for Deception what he did for Cassadine Industries, the company would be successful. Peter called someone on the phone and said “Scorpio may still be a problem” and asked for the next phase of the plan to be put into motion. Sasha told Chase how she only moved in with Michael because of Nelle and they were no where near talking about marriage and children. Willow told Michael she’d do whatever he needed to keep Wiley safe from Nelle. Lulu told Maxie how Valentin gave Charlotte unlimited access to his credit card in order to come across as the better parent. Chase told Sasha they had to keep Wiley from Nelle.

Tuesday

Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) did push ups while thinking about his conversation with Dr. Kirk. Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) and Robert arrived at the facility in Geneva. Scorpio asked Agent Wagner and Dr. Kirk about Dante’s mother seeing him. Liv said Dante had to see her. At GH, Lulu (Emme Rylan) asked Kevin (Jon Lindstrom) when her mother (Genie Francis) would be returning. Cyrus (Jeff Kober) approached, adding he’d like to know the same thing as he had some things to discuss with the mayor. Lulu was furious when Kevin told Renault fired Bobbie (Jackie Zeman) and Monica (Leslie Charleson). Cyrus said he took the appropriate action as both Bobbie and Monica left GH opened to a lawsuit. He assured Kevin his job was safe. Jordan (Briana Henry) told Alexis (Nancy Grahan) that the autopsy report revealed Dr. Byrnes (Joe Flanigan) died of an apparent opioid overdose. Commissioner Ashford asked Ms. Davis whether Dr. Byrnes was depressed and could have taken his own life. On the contrary, replied Alexis adding they were planning their future. At The Metro Court, Julian (William deVry) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) had a conversation about Nelle (Chloe Lanier). Brando (Johnny Wactor) asked why Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Jason (Steve Burton) had a change of heart about Corbin’s guilt in causing Jason’s bike accident. Jason admitted they’d installed a security camera at the garage to see whether Renault would return. It was fortunate timing because the camera helped them witness Brando’s beating and get Corbin to the hospital so quickly. Jason received a text from Spinelli and had to leave. And Sam later learned Bobbie and Monica were fired from GH by Cyrus Renault. Dante heard his mother’s voice outside the door. Dr. Kirk went to check with Dante first. But Falconieri declined the visit. It was heartbreaking as he listened to his mother’s sobs pleas to be let in. Peter (Wes Ramsey) came to Valentin’s table at The Metro and told his mentor how his life is in danger from Jason Morgan due to Nelle’s big mouth. Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) told Jason how their security camera recorded Peter admitting what Nelle said about August and Shiloh’s connection was true. But Jason told Spinelli they needed more proof. Valentin offered to help Peter with Jason. Brando received flowers and a note from Cyrus. Sam asked Jason whether he blamed her signing over Danny and Scout’s shares to Valentin for Bobbie and Monica being fired. After learning Neil died after being injected with opioid, Alexis and Julian searched her bedroom for proof he didn’t commit suicide. Julian told Alexis he was sorry when he found a syringe under the bed. Jordan stormed into Cyrus’ and demanded to know why Renault killed Dr. Byrnes.

Wednesday

At The Metro Court, Carly (Laura Wright) encouraged her mother to file a lawsuit for wrongful termination. But Bobbie (Jackie Zeman) didn’t want to bring any more negative publicity to GH. Also at The Metro Court were Martin (Michael E. Knight) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart), who asked the attorney whether Nelle Benson Archer Jerome’s (Chloe Lanier) latest disappearance was for real. Trina (Sydney Mikayla), Cameron (William Lipton) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) arrived at Charlie’s Pub. Josslyn told Cameron she and Trina talk about everything so she knew (about Trina and Cameron’s kiss). Jordan (Briana Henry) accused Cyrus (Jeff Kober) of killing Dr. Byrnes (Joe Flanigan). But Renault denied it or any connection with the doctor. He said Jordan was acting as though she’s reviving her vendetta against him. Alexis (Nancy Grahan) told Julian she picked a better liar after they found the syringe. Portia came to Charlie’s and told Ava (Maura West) she judged her harshly without all the facts. But that didn’t mean Portia wouldn’t keep her eye on Ava. Instead of getting angry, Ava commented the a mother’s job was to make sure her daughter was safe and happy. Bobbie confronted Valentin for allowing Cyrus Renault a foothold into GH. Sam (Kelly Monaco) asked Jason (Steve Burton) to tell her if he blamed her for the Quartermaines losing ELQ to Valentin. Jason assured he wasn’t and was certain the Quartermaines would regain control. Brick (Stephen A. Smith) had drinks with Carly and commented how much he admired Sonny (Maurice Benard) for all he’s doing for Mike (Max Corbin). Julian called Sam and asked her to come over to Alexis’ to be there for her mother. But Alexis wanted to be alone and her daughter to return home with Jason to spend time with her family. Ava tagged along with Julian as he broke into Martin Grey’s office to steal Nelle’s letter. Ava pulled the firm alarm to warn her brother that Martin (with Valentin) was coming back. It was revealed that Martin carried Nelle’s letter in his brief case. Cyrus spoke with someone on the phone demanding to know where Neil Byrnes got the drugs.

Thursday

“Your screwed up fake marriage is ruining my real one” Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) angrily told Nikolas (Marcus Coloma). At her gallery, Ava (Maura West) and Franco (Roger Howath) discussed her portrait. She said Elizabeth should support Franco’s passion like a good wife. Nikolas asked whether Elizabeth was having doubts about Franco. He thanked her for giving him a second chance to be her friend, promising he wouldn’t let her down this time. Nikolas said he’d always be there for her; she makes him want to be a better man. Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) and Robert (Tristan Rogers) were in England for Holly’s memorial service. Robert said how could there be a memorial without a body. He remembered Holly from the early days of their marriage. Scorpio received a phone call from a woman asking for help. He thought it was Holly. Scorpio asked a contact to trace the call. Robert told Olivia he had to know whether there was the slightest chance Holly was alive. Or if someone was messing with him. Dev, Cameron (William Lipton) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) were spending the day together until Josslyn left to visit Mike (Max Gail). Stella (Vernee Watson) came to see Mike and offered her support to Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Carly (Laura Wright). Jax (Ingo Radmacher) and Nina (Cynthia Watros) went to see the jeweler of the heart shaped necklace. He had an order request to cut a heart shaped necklace into two in September, 1991. Nina was happy…she was one step closer to finding her child. Ned (Wally Kurth) told Sonny that Olivia was in Geneva seeing Dante. Meanwhile, Robert’s contact traced the call to Monaco and decided to go there. Olivia said she’d go with him. Ava, Franco, Elizabeth and Nikolas shared kisses while someone took photos. When Mike had trouble breathing due to suffering from pneumonia, Stella told Carly, Sonny and Josslyn it was time they said their goodbyes to him.

Friday

The doctor told Carly (Laura Wright), Sonny (Maurice Bernard) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) the oxygen was keeping Mike (Max Gail) comfortable. After their kiss, Ava (Maura West) and Franco (Roger Howath) acknowledged it brought them back to a similar time before either of them were married to different people. Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) told Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) their kiss was a mistake. Dev urged Cameron (William Lipton) to choose between Trina (Sydney Mikayla) and Josslyn. Sonny told Mike when he was ready to go they were there with him. Josslyn asked Sonny if she could say goodbye to Mike. Portia (Brooke Kerr) asked Trina how she’d feel if Cameron took her to the dance but ended up with Josslyn. Josslyn told Mike how happy she was to get to have him as a grandfather. She added she always pictures him around for the special moments of her life. We got to see Mike giving Josslyn a corsage for homecoming and high school Valedictorian Josslyn Sonny’s mother Adela’s bracelet, assuring she’s every bit his granddaughter as Avery and Donna. Next we saw a private moment during Josslyn’s wedding reception where Mike called her the most beautiful bride. He said her new husband better protect that precious heart of hers. While Franco was suggesting Ava get a gigolo to fulfill her needs, Nikolas told Elizabeth he could hold out without cheating on Ava. At The Jerome Gallery, Trina told Ava about attending the Homecoming Dance with Dev, Cameron and Josslyn as friends. Ava asked how Trina felt about that. Later, the teen thought about when she told Cameron the kiss they shared was due to PTSD from being kidnapped. At GH, Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) arrived at GH and announced Cyrus Renault appointed her as the new Chief of Staff. That wasn’t the only change: Epiphany (Sonya Eddy) was no longer Head Nurse…she was assigned to administrative duties. While Elizabeth was only given two shifts a week. In the meantime, Finn (Michael Easton) and Portia’s jobs were safe. Ava came to see Mike and asked Sonny whether there was anything she could do. Josslyn thought about Mike being there when she announced being pregnant with her first child. She thanked him for all he’s done for her.
