A weekly column highlighting the Port Charles happenings during the past week on General Hospital. Read below to find out what you missed or to refresh your memory in time for next week.

Monday

Curtis (Donnell Turner) had lunch with Stella (Vernee Watson) at Kelly’s and reminded her she had to stop inserting herself into his relationships. When Trina (Sydney Mikayla) entered, he invited her to join them. At GH, Portia (Brooke Kerr) asked Jordan (Briana Henry) to grab a cup of coffee with her. At first declining, Jordan said she couldn’t do this adding “I know you and Curtis kissed.” Mike/Sonny (Maurice Benard) told Nina (Cynthia Watros) she looked at home at The Tan-o. Austin (Roger Howarth) watched as Chase (Josh Swickward) took a step. “Mom, what are you doing here?” Willow asked Harmony (Inga Cadranel). “I came to see my grandson on his birthday,” she answered. Portia apologized but Jordan said she didn’t do anything wrong because she (Jordan) and Curtis were getting a divorce. Jordan added Curtis didn’t tell her…she saw the two of them together. Stella couldn’t stay and Trina told Curtis she couldn’t sit down and join him. Curtis told her he knew her mother told her they were dating and wanted to talk. Plus, it looked like Trina had something on her mind. Nina asked about Lenny’s condition. Once everyone left the room and it was just her, Mike and Harmony, Willow asked her mother why she came back now. Trina told Curtis she wanted to make sure he and Jordan were over before Curtis and her mom started dating. Jordan was surprised to learn Curtis and Portia were a couple as she thought it was just a kiss. Nina said the search for her daughter led to the truth about Wiley. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have her grandson in her life. Since Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) didn’t know about Willow’s family and why she’d be upset about seeing her mother, Carly (Laura Wright) explained how Harmony forced Willow to join that cult which was how she became pregnant with that cult leader’s baby. Harmony explained Wiley’s birthday was a day for the family to be together. Chase (Josh Swickward) wheeled himself into the room and asked Harmony whether she thought being there was a good idea. Portia told Jordan she wanted them to be friends. Jordan said under the circumstances she didn’t see how that was possible…at least for the moment. But for what it was worth, all Jordan wanted was to see Curtis happy and if Portia made him happy and they were honest with each other, they (she and Portia) were good. Trina was relieved when Curtis confirmed he and Jordan were long separated before he and Portia decided to see each other. Nina assured Mike/Sonny there was room in her heart for both him and Wiley. Carly and Jason (Steve Burton) gave Valentin the Cliff Notes version of Shiloh, Dawn of Day, Kristina’s involvement with the cult and how Harmony helped take Shiloh down. Curtis reminded how Harmony played messenger for Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober). Harmony said she did that to protect her daughter. Harmony decided to leave because she didn’t want to cast a shadow on the day. “But I hope we can see each other soon.” Willow left to get some of Wiley’s presents she left at the gatehouse, Willow left. But once there, Willow thought about when Chase told her that her baby was dead. Jason commented he believed Harmony wanted to make things right. But it was Willow’s decision in the end. Mike/Sonny told Nina about the flash he had. “It really felt like I was remembering my family.” Curtis was about to leave a voicemail for Portia when Jordan entered Kelly’s. She told Curtis she signed the divorce papers and although he said there was no rush, Jordan knew there was because he and Portia were seeing each other. At GH, Stella ran into Portia and told her she wasn’t trying to pass judgement on her…she just didn’t want Portia or Curtis to get hurt because she didn’t think Curtis and Jordan’s marriage was over yet. Jason reminded Carly although they were getting married to protect the family, he hurt Britt (Kelly Thiebauld). Valentin told Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) his action robbed Lulu (Emme Rylan) of time she could have spent with Charlotte (Scarlett Fernandez). He added Charlotte and Bailey were the most important things in his life. Mike/Sonny admitted to Nina his fear that if he remembered his family, they wouldn’t be there for him. After he left the room, Nina took a call from Brook Lynn who wanted Nina to turn her camera on so she could video chat Nina saying Happy Birthday to Wiley. Austin told Chase he saw him trying to take a step. Chase asked him to not say anything because he wanted to be able to walk more before he told Willow. Michael came to the gatehouse and told Willow he knew how hard the day was because not only was she celebrating Wiley’s birthday, but she was acknowledging the anniversary of her baby’s death. Then, they kissed. Jordan told Curtis she signed the divorce papers because the last thing she wanted to do was hold him back if he was ready to move on. Curtis asked Jordan whether she was saying she wouldn’t have signed the divorce papers if she didn’t think he was moving on. Trina overheard Stella tell Portia not to be the other woman in Curtis’ marriage the way she made him the other man in hers. Mike/Sonny came into the room while Nina was video chatting and saying happy birthday to Wiley. Carly also came in from the patio and asked who Wiley was talking with. Austin helped Chase walk to the gatehouse. Meanwhile, Willow and Michael were upstairs in bed making love.

Tuesday

Mike/Sonny (Maurice Benard) walked back in the room while Nina (Cynthia Watros) was video chatting and saying happy birthday to Wiley. Nina panicked when Carly (Laura Wright) appeared in the camera frame just as Mike/Sonny asked whether he could say Hi. Nina hung up the phone and lied and said the call got disconnected. Mike/Sonny offered the use of his cellphone. Nina called back but didn’t turn on the video camera. Phyllis (Juliette Jeffers) entered and told them the doctors decided to keep Lenny overnight for observation. She also told Nina about running into Nina’s ex husband Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) in New York. Trina overheard Stella tell Portia not to be the other woman in Curtis’ marriage the way she made him the other man in hers. Portia insisted Curtis (Donnel Turner) had nothing to do with her marriage ending. Stella said she was sure Taggert (Réal Andrews) would disagree. Curtis asked Jordan (Briana Henry) whether she was saying she wouldn’t have signed the divorce papers if she didn’t think he was moving on. Jordan admitted she wanted them to try again on their marriage and was willing to put in the work to make things right. Jordan asked Curtis to tell her it wasn’t too late. Although he said he regretted what they lost, Curtis told Jordan it was too late to go back. Austin (Roger Howarth) helped Chase (Josh Swickward) walk to the gatehouse. Meanwhile, Willow and Michael were upstairs in bed making love. Austin found a shirt on the floor and commented it wasn’t Chase’s. “It’s Michael’s,” Chase said. Willow felt guilty for sleeping with Michael and cheating on Chase, saying she didn’t know what she was doing anymore. Austin and Chase hid and watched Willow and Michael leave. Chase asked Austin to help him upstairs because he had to see for himself. When he entered the bedroom, Chase saw the tossed sheets and Austin found the empty condom pack on the nightstand. Chase said Willow wouldn’t have a one night stand. If she slept with Michael she must have feelings for him. He also believed Michael wouldn’t throw away their friendship to cheat with Chase’s wife. Austin thought Chase had to admit to himself he didn’t know Michael or Willow as much as he thought. Josslyn (Eden McCoy) came to visit Cameron (William Lipton) at his job at Kelly’s. (Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) interrupted and they talked about the party he was throwing. Jordan reminded the mistakes she made were her own and it wasn’t Stella’s place to question her like she was a teenager. When an orderly called Dr. Robinson, Portia turned around and saw Trina standing there. An upset Trina ran off. Stella offered to go to Trina but Portia said Ms. Henry’s done enough. Having overheard Phyllis telling Nina about running into her ex husband in New York, Mike/Sonny said he hoped this Valentin didn’t come to Nixon Falls to win her back like her other ex Jax. Trina came to Kelly’s and told Spencer about learning something upsetting about her mother. Spencer urged Trina not to wait too long to hear her mother out and remember she’s a flawed human being, not just her mom. He said he was angry with his father for so long he was unsure they’d ever be truly okay. Josslyn told Cameron she didn’t think it a good idea for Trina to date Spencer. Trina returned to GH and told Portia she was safe but she was far from okay. Josslyn and Cameron arrived at Wiley’s birthday party. Joss took a photo of Wiley, Willow and Michael and commented on what a beautiful family they were. Austin asked Chase what he intended to do about Willow and Michael.

Wednesday

“My wife is sleeping with the guy who used to be my best friend. It’s time to end this” Chase (Josh Swickward told Austin (Roger Howarth). At Kelly’s, Stella (Vernee Watson) told Curtis (Donnell Turner) she revealed a secret that could hurt a lot of people. She confessed that Trina (Sydney Mikayla) overheard her talking about his affair with Portia (Brook Kerr). Trina confronted her mother about her affair with Curtis, accusing Portia of breaking up their family. Outside Kelly’s, Laura (Genie Francis) asked Spencer (Nicholas Coloma) how he was settling back in and why he was back in Port Charles. Spencer told his grandmother he didn’t have a problem with her husband and knew he was nothing like his twin. He also assured him and his dad were getting along better. Spencer talked about his truce with Ava (Maura West). At Spring Ranch, Alexis (Nancy Grahan) tried to break through to Ryan (Jon Lindstrom). But it was Harmony (Inga Candarel) who spoke for Chamberlain. She told Alexis she worked at Spring Ranch. Harmony gave Ryan his protein IV and said Alexis could ask him questions and his responses would be non-verbal communication (one blink for Yes, two for No). After Ryan was wheeled out of the room, Alexis accused Harmony of trying to find a new cuIt leader in Ryan. It was time for Wiley to open his birthday presents. Willow (Katelyn MacMuellen) asked Chase where he was. Chase smiled and said he was going to ask her the same thing. Willow told Chase after her mother’s visit, she needed some time alone. He asked whether Michael (Chad Duell) found her. Michael returned to the room carrying Wiley. Chase thanked Michael for consoling Willow, adding it’s nice to have a true friend who will set and do the things he can’t. Curtis told his Aunt Stella she couldn’t expect him to make the decisions she wanted in his relationships. He left to find Portia and Trina to do damage control. Portia reminded Trina (Sydney Mikayla) she was a child when she and her father divorced, explaining to her daughter it would have been inappropriate to tell her about the affair. Portia said parents often make mistakes when trying to protect their children. Trina asked whether her dad knew about the affair. Portia told Trina not at first but he recently admitted he suspected but forgave her. Portia said she and Marcus made a vow that Trina would know she was the most important person to them. She wanted her daughter to know Curtis was blameless because he ended things when she told him she was married. Trina asked her mother whether Portia’s been in love with Curtis all these years. Cameron (William Lipton) came to Carly (Laura Wright) to tell her his intentions towards her daughter. Carly questioned Cameron’s decision to pick up a gun and warned that type of behavior wouldn’t be tolerated now that he was dating her daughter. Cameron and Josslyn returned to Kelly’s. Spencer exchanged barbs at Cameron who had to get back to work. Laura told her grandson that Cameron recently lost his stepfather and was working to put himself through college so she didn’t want to hear him giving Cameron a hard time. Harmony assured Alexis she wanted to put her Dawn of Day past behind her. Willow told Michael something was off with Chase. Meanwhile, Chase was angry Willow and Michael lied to his face and didn’t admit their affair and now they were singing Happy Birthday to their son. Chase asked Austin to get him out of there and take him somewhere else. But Austin encouraged him not to give up and fight for what he wanted. Curtis arrived at GH and saw Portia and Trina talking. Trina apologized to him for accusing him of cheating on Commissioner Ashford because she now knew he wasn’t the cheater. After asking Cameron about the location of a mailbox, Stella collapsed and fell to the floor.

Thursday

At Volonino’s Gym, Brando (Johnny Wactor) told Jason (Steve Burton) he’s doing great because of him. At The Metro Court dining room, Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) praised Brook Lynn’s (Amanda Setton) marketing work and said she had a big perk to offer her. Terry (Cassandra James) discussed the proposal she sent Britt (Kelly Thiebauld) to expand GH’s telemedicine department. Britt said there wasn’t any money in the budget and it wasn’t cost effective. Carly (Laura Wright) was folding towels at The Metro Court pool when Jax (Ingo Radmacher) arrived. She told him she was stressed because of how he acted when he learned she was marrying Jason. TJ (Taj Bellows) sat by his Aunt Stella’s (Vernee Watson) hospital bed urging her to be okay. Cameron (William Lipton) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) arrived at GH and asked Curtis (Donnell Turner) and Portia (Brook Kerr) about Stella’s condition. Portia told them Stella had a stroke. Curtis thanked Cameron for keeping a cool head and Portia praised his quick action. Sasha told Brook Lynn she was giving her an assistant. Gladys (Bonnie Burroughs) entered and Sasha introduced her to Brook Lynn, saying she was Ms. Quartermaine’s new assistant. But Gladys commented she preferred to think of them as equals. Brando told Jason his advice convinced him to choose Sasha and the baby instead of the Corinthos business. Jax told Carly his response to her engagement was because of his concern for their daughter. Britt told Terry she had a meeting with Monica (Leslie Charleson) and planned to turn down the co-Chief of Staff position. Terry explained Monica pitched them as a team, asking whether Britt wanted a bureaucrat as their boss. Brando assured Jason he was happy with his decision. Sasha asked Gladys her qualifications to be assistant to a marketing executive. Cameron told Curtis and Portia the envelope Stella asked about mailing was destroyed when she spilled her coffee on it when she had her stroke. After Cameron and Josslyn left, Curtis asked Portia could he be to blame for his auntie’s stroke because he left her obviously stressed-out at Kelly’s. Portia told Curtis she shared some of the blame for the way she lit into his aunt. TJ entered and told them Aunt Stella’s vitals were getting stronger. Stella opened her eyes and Portia gave her a quick examination. She brought TJ and Curtis in to see her. Stella recognized them. She asked why she was there. Jax told Carly he’d let this go for now. Brando wished Jason and Carly a long and happy marriage. Gladys reminded Brook Lynn that Sasha hired her so if she had a problem to take it up with her. Stella was told she had a stroke. Joey Novak approached Josslyn at Kelly’s. Because she didn’t know him or how he knew so much about her, Joss asked him to get away from her. Cameron rushed to his new girlfriend’s side and ordered Novak to get out of her face. Josslyn told Joey Novak she would tell Jason he intended to be in the stands at her volleyball game. Britt came to The Metro Court pool and she and Jax speculated on why Carly and Jason were marrying. After Sasha explained the situation, Brook Lynn agreed to accept Gladys as her assistant. Britt returned to GH and told Terry she’s decided to accept the co-Chief of Staff position and suggested she and Dr. Randolph went with her so they could tell Monica together. Cameron came to Volonino’s Gym to take his frustrations out on the punching bag. He told Jasona guy named Joey Novak was harassing Josslyn at Kelly’s. Meanwhile after overhearing Josslyn telling her mom what happened with Joey Novak, Jax asked Carly what she got their daughter into.

Friday

Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) came to visit Alexis (Nancy Grahan). Sean (Sean Blakemore) approached Ava (Maura West) at The Metro Court pool. Ava asked whether it was worth the six years he spent in prison to protect Sonny (Maurice Benard). Sean answered he didn’t regret his decision. But now his focus is his son TJ (Taj Bellows). Laura (Genie Francis) greeted Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and talked about what happened in New York. He asked whether she spoke with Olivia (Lisa LoCiciero). Jax (Ingo Radmacher) confronted Carly (Laura Wright) about Joey Novak accosting Josslyn (Eden McCoy). Carly corrected Jax saying Novak approached Josslyn, not accost her. Not wanting to argue with her ex husband, Carly assured she’ll make sure their daughter is safe. At Volonino’s Gym, Liesl (Kathleen Gati) confronted Jason (Steve Burton) for deserting her daughter Britta (Kelly Thiebauld) when she needed him the most. Jason expressed remorse for hurting Britt. Anna (Finola Hughes) was at Kelly’s when Finn (Michael Easton), Violet (Jophelle Love) and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) entered. Violet rushed to Anna and told her daddy’s team won the softball game. Anna was looking forward to spending the next day with Violet; they were having a tea party. After Anna left, Hayden’s (Rebecca Herbst) mother entered. Violet asked whether her grandmother would bring her to her mother when they spent time together. But the woman didn’t know where her daughter was. She gave Finn her contact information and said she would be staying in Port Charles and would like to get to know her granddaughter. Anna came to Volonino’s Gym and she and Liesl discussed Peter (Wes Ramsey). Outside Kelly’s, Jason warned Joey Novak if he didn’t stay away from Josslyn Jax it would be cause for full retaliation which he’s sure his uncle wouldn’t like. A smug Joey said he’d take his chances. Dante assured Laura he wasn’t involved with anyone. Jason came to The Metro Court and told her about his warning to Joey and how Novak didn’t seem worried. After Sam, Alexis and Nikolas asked Harmony (Inga Canadrel) about helping Ryan send messages, Harmony left Chamberlain’s file so they could review it. Alexis showed Nikolas a letter from Ryan to S. Cassadine (Spencer).
