Monday

Encore episode; Original Airdate Tuesday, October 26, 2021

Finn (Michael Easton) commented he would know what he’d do without Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) when Violet (Jophelle Love) was excited with the housewarming gifts Liz brought them. When she found a picture of Elizabeth with her father, Violet asked about her Grandpa Jeff and why she didn’t know him. Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) was angry Kevin (Jon Lindstrom) was making him get a job. Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) brainstormed job options. Spencer wondered whether Britt (Kelly Thiebauld) would put in a good word for him and he could work as the Co-Chief of Staff’s assistance. Spencer declined Cameron’s offer of a job at Kelly’s. Ned (Wally Kurth) again told Austin (Roger Howarth) he did the right thing. But Austin was annoyed that the HIPAA charges weren’t dropped yet. Gladys (Bonnie Burroughs) kissed her cellphone after she heard Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) admitting Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) wasn’t Bailey’s father. She then ordered some items online and had them charged to Brook Lynn at Deception. Brook Lynn arrived at The Metro Court to meet Chase (Josh Swickward) ready to celebrate Austin signing the papers to relinquish his shares of ELQ. She insisted Dr. Austin Gatlin Holt wasn’t as innocent as he thought. Ned wanted Austin to help him talk with Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) about Leo. But Austin was angry that Brook Lynn took his desire to help people against him. Brook Lynn received notification from Wyndham’s about two pairs of expensive boots charged to her account. Willow (Katelyn MacMuellen) told Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) she needed time away from Michael (Chad Duell) because he used his family’s money and contributed to DA Sheridan’s political campaign for State Attorney General so the man would prosecute Nina (Cynthia Watros). This kind of behavior was both Corinthos and Quartermaine. Sasha suggested Willow discuss her disapproval over what he’d done with Michael. Michael explained to Carly (Laura Wright) and Sonny (Maurice Benard) that Nina should answer for the pain she caused the family (especially Avery and Donna). Carly told Michael how she backed off Nina because Sonny asked her too while Sonny told Michael it was obvious Nina was a troubled woman and having her prosecuted would serve no purpose. Michael disagreed as he’d given Nina chance after chance and her actions reminded him of Nelle (Chloe Lanier). Chase came over with housewarming gifts for Finn and Violet which included a Kiss The Cook apron for his brother. Elizabeth tore up the photo of her and Jeff. When he changed his mind about the job at Kelly’s, Spencer had to beg Cameron to hire him. Cameron hired Spencer and trained him, telling him he had to introduce himself with a smile and say “Welcome to Kelly’s, my name is Spencer and I’ll be your servicer.” The cut-off Cassadine heir practiced the greeting on Cameron. Brook Lynn confronted Gladys about charging her online purchases to her (Brook Lynn) account at Deception. Gladys played the voice recording of her saying Valentin wasn’t Bailey’s father.

Tuesday

Britt (Kelly Thiebauld), Brad (Parry Shen), Spinelli (Bradford Anderson), Austin (Roger Howarth), Drew (Cameron Mathison), Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Chase (Josh Swickward) were at The Metro Court was a charity event, which Austin termed “a meat market.” Laura (Genie Francis) ran into Ava (Genie Francis) at the firing range. Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) took off her jacket to appear more seductive then joined Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) and poured herself a drink. Carly (Laura Wright) assured Michael (Chad Duell) the case would be decided in his favor. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ordered Willow (Katelyn MacMuellen) to get her hand off her when she grabbed her arm and said Nina wasn’t going anywhere. Willow accused Nina of trying to humanize Nelle (Chloe Lanier), who obviously inherited her instability from Nina. Willow said it was ironic Nina wears a heart pendant when she is heartless. Chase asked Dante’s (Dominic Zamprogna) who said he spoke BLQ. Chase told Austin he would be at Bailey’s first birthday party. Ava told Laura how Nikolas wasn’t giving them the time and space to work on their marriage. And although she’d like to blame houseguests Esme and Spencer (Nicholas Chavez), the truth is it’s Nikolas. Laura told Ava how Nikolas asked her to put in a good word for Avery (Ava and Grace Scarola) to get into a private school Ava wanted her to attend. Esme told Nikolas she and Spencer were over. She said if Ava didn’t appreciate Nikolas she should like him find a woman who would. Brook Lynn told Dante how Chase wouldn’t help her with something which Dante assumed was something illegal. Terry (Cassandra James) encouraged Chet to take the job saying they weren’t sure they’d work out and he’d regret not accepting his dream job if they didn’t. Diane (Carolyn Hennessey) and Scott returned from Judge Foster’s chambers. Diane called Willow to the stand. Willow testified her belief Nina loved Wiley on her terms and didn’t know how to put his best interest first. Laura asked Ava an important question: “Would you rather be right? Or would you rather be happy?” Esme told Nikolas the woman who loves him should be willing to give him what he wanted and needed. “I would,”Esme said. Nina wouldn’t allow Scott to cross examine Willow. Since all arguments were presented, Judge Foster said she’d have her ruling within the hour. Sam (Kelly Monaco) asked Spinelli what was going on with him. Drew urged Britt to give Society Setups a chance. Laura told Ava she wanted her son to be happy and felt he could be. Nikolas told Esme he wanted her to stay even without Spencer. He said he wanted her then kissed her passionately.

Wednesday

Maxie (Kristen Storms) arrived at The Metro Court event. Maxie encouraged Britt (Kelly Thiebauld) to forget the past and look forward to the future as they both need some good karma. Terry (Cassandra James) arrived and told Britt she came to the mixer because it wasn’t going to work out with the person she’s been seeing because he accepted a job away from Port Charles. Austin (Roger Howarth) and Maxie talked about getting a place. At GH, Carly (Laura Wright) opened the DNA envelope but then returned back to the courthouse. Nina (Cynthia Watros) asked Scott (Kin Shriner) whether it was a good sign the judge coming back with a ruling so soon. Scott said it was hard to tell. Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) returned to Wyndemere and saw Esme’s (Avery Kristen Pohl) luggage. Remembering how she said she may not be there when he got back, Spencer said “No such luck.” Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) said he was sorry for kissing Esme. “I’m not,” she said as they fell back into the kiss. Although grandparents had visitation rights in the State of New York, Judge Foster denied Nina’s petition and ruled in Michael (Temporary being played by Robert Adamson) and Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) favor. Judge Foster scolded Scott for bringing up Michael’s crime records. Willow noticed Carly didn’t seem happy and asked what was wrong. Scott told Nina he was sorry they lost. Nina came to Willow and Michael and begged for time with Wiley. But Wiley refused. Nina left the courthouse. Diane praised Carly remaining composed during Sonny’s (Maurice Benard) testimony. Anna (Finola Hughes) and Valentin (James Patrik Stuart) arrived at the shooting range and had a firing competition which Anna later won. Spencer made himself a sandwich then texted Esme asking where she was. He also texted Cameron (William Lipton) asking for advice because he messed things up with Esme. Meanwhile, Nikolas couldn’t believe what happened with his son’s girlfriend. He asked Esme whether she was okay. Esme said she was fine, adding she’s been fighting her feelings of attraction for him for a while. Ava came home and ran into Spencer. He told her he and Esme were moving out and into a five star hotel. Spencer wanted his trust fund money. But Ava said she didn’t trust him so she wouldn’t give him any money until after he and Esme were gone. Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) told Drew how Sonny and Michael were gunning for each other. Drew hoped to help before things escalated between father and son. Chase (Josh Swickward) told Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) he’d help her with Linc. A man parachutes into The Metro Court, knocking Britt (Kelly Thiebauld) into the pool. Nina visited Nelle’s grave and sadly told her daughter she couldn’t see her son anymore. Michael noticed his mother holding an envelope and asked what it was. Carly remembered reading the DNA results which confirmed Nina was Willow’s mother. Spencer found Esme’s jacket outside a room and the door locked. Nikolas panicked when he heard Spencer on the other side of the door calling for Esme.

Thursday

A man named Cody (Josh Kelly) parachutes into The Metro Court, knocking Britt (Kelly Thiebauld) into the pool. Michael (Temporary being played by Robert Adamson) told Drew (Cameron Mathison) they won…Nina’s (Cynthia Watros) petition was denied. Sonny (Maurice Benard) came to Charlie’s and asked Phyllis (Joyce Guy) whether she’s seen Nina. Josslyn (Eden McCoy) was in the park with Wiley when she received a text from Cameron (William Lipton). Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) found a jacket and told Ava (Maura West) it was Esme’s (Kristen Avery Pohl). “Esme are you in there?” Spencer asked, knocking on the door. Spencer walked away but Ava stayed. She was surprised when Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) opened the door, appearing nervous. He lied he was taking a nap and didn’t realize the door was locked. Meanwhile, Esme was on the parapet in her underwear. Nikolas said it was bats when Ava heard Esme drop her shoe as she got dressed. Britt demanded Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) arrest the skydiver Cody, who knew Detective Falconieri. Willow told Carly she’s glad she can move on with her life and doesn’t have to see Nina ever again. Sonny told Phyllis keeping Nina away from Wiley is wrong. He wants Wiley to grow up to be his own man. Drew told Michael he didn’t want what was going on with Sonny distracting him from the business with ELQ and Aurora. Michael told Drew he was tired of the family pretending Sonny was a legitimate coffee importer. Phyllis received a call and told Sonny that Nina lost the case. Sonny was worried about Nina and went to find her, telling Phyllis he knew where she’d gone. Dante arrested the skydiver. Cameron arrived at Wyndemere. Spencer told him how he blew it with Esme when he heard her badmouthing Trina (Tabyana Ali). Cameron warned Spencer he wouldn’t lose Josslyn over Cassadine’s plan. Spencer had to come clean about it tonight. If he didn’t, Cameron would. Esme got dressed and listened as Ava apologized to Nikolas for overreacting. She explained how Laura (Genie Francis) told her how he asked her to give Avery (Grace and Ava Scarola) a recommendation for the day school Ava wanted her to attend. Ava told Nikolas she wasn’t a quitter and hoped he wasn’t either because she wanted to work on their marriage. Sonny came to the cemetery but didn’t find Nina at Nelle’s (Chloe Lanier) grave. Josslyn brought Wiley to the courthouse. Sam asked Cody about his past with Dante and it’s apparent they got into a lot of trouble together back in the old days. Carly lied to Drew the DNA proved Nina wasn’t Willow’s mother. Drew was confused why Harmony (Inga Candranel) would say she was if she wasn’t. Spencer found Esme and said he had something to tell her. She said she did too. Nikolas told Ava there was something she should know.

Friday

Sonny (Maurice Benard) found her two heart necklace and called Phyllis (Joyce Guy) and told her he didn’t find Nina (Cynthia Watros) and was worried. Meanwhile, Nina was in a car asking to be taken to the Port Charle Airport. At Charlie’s, Cody (Josh Kelly) commented to Sam (Kelly Thiebauld) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) he didn’t just corrupt Dante, Falconieri did his share of the corruption when they were childhood friends at 12. Josslyn (Eden McCoy) found Cameron (William Lipton) working a shift at The Metro Court Pool. She wanted to talk about what was going on between them. Rory thanked Trina (Tabyana Ali) for introducing him to art. Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) apologized to Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) for taking her for granted. Nikolas (Marcus Coloma) told Ava (Maura West) he was ready to give up on their marriage. She asked whether it was too late for them. Sam (Kelly Thiebauld) asked Dante why he never mentioned Cody. Cameron told Josslyn there was something he needed to tell her. But they were interrupted by classmate Adam (Joshua Benard), who apologized for the comment he made when he saw the sex video. But after reading The Invader article, Adam realized his remarks were wrong. “Who’s your friend?” Taggert (Réal Andrews) when he and Portia (Brooke Kerr) opened the front door and found Rory and Trina on the other side. Taggert questioned Rory about seeing Trina when he learned he was the cop who escorted his daughter to her arraignment. Rory assured he was a by the rule book cop and him seeing Trina didn’t break any rules because she hasn’t been convicted of a crime. Ava told Nikolas she wasn’t going to let Esme or Spencer ruin what they have. Sonny had someone track Nina and learned she brought a plane ticket to Milan. Nina realized she lost her two heart necklace. Ava and Nikolas decided to work on their marriage as Esme forgave Spencer and they decided to give their relationship another chance. Sonny was about to go to the airport when he came face-to-face with Nina who returned to the cemetery to find her necklace. She told Sonny she was leaving Port Charles because she couldn’t stay and see Wiley grow up and not be a part of his life. Nina said the necklace was the only thing she had left of her daughter and grandson and asked Sonny to give it back to her. Sonny gave Nina the necklace but asked her how she thinks Wiley would feel when he got older and learned she didn’t fight for him. Cody commented on Sam asking a lot of questions. Dante told him Sam was a PI. Sam said she may know of a job for him when Cody said he’d work with horses. Ava told Spencer he could stay at Wyndemere and she’d still give him the agreed upon $10,000 a week but Esme had to go. Esme smirked and said since she and Spencer reconciled so if he stayed she would too. When Ava and Spencer left the room, Nikolas reminded Esme since they were back with their significant others no one needed to ever know what happened between them. Nina agrees to stay in Port Charles.
