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

Rick (Rick Hearst) and TJ (Taj Bellows) worked out at Aurora Wellness Center. “Are you sure you want to put your life on hold for that woman? Are you sure you want to give that woman that much power over you?” Curtis asked Portia. Rick spotted TJ while he worked out. TJ told Rick working out kept from thinking about what he wanted to do to Kristina (Kate Mansi). Molly (Kristen Vaganos) came to see Alexis (Nancy Grahan) but wasn’t happy when Kristina entered the room. When his attorney arrived at the penthouse, Sonny (Maurice Benard) told Diane (Carolyn Henessy) she was just in time because the police commissioner thought he was stupid enough to kill a federal agent. His captor asked Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) whether his poker hand could beat him. Jordan (Tanisha Harper) walked in on the henchman attempting to use a syringe to put something in Isaiah’s (Sawandi Wilson) IV. His captor told Lucky his luck was about to run out when he saw his winning hand. “Let me see your badge or I’m calling the security,” Jordan warned. The hitman pushed her to the floor. Portia told Curtis no way Heather Webber (Alley Mills) a victim. TJ told Rick he’ll never forgive Kristin. Alexis reminded Molly and Kristina they were sisters. Chase (Josh Swickward) told Dex (Evan Hofer) that Sonny probably wasn’t worried about the missing gun because he knew Anna (Finola Hughes) was barking up the wrong tree. Diane told Anna she had only conjecture and no evidence. Anna told Jason (Steve Burton) he needed to come with her. Lucky asked Holly (Emma Samms) to find the keys to open the handcuffs. Curtis told Portia they needed to trust the system. Rick told TJ they had to be there for Molly in a way her so-called family wouldn’t. Molly told Kristina she selfishly never asked how TJ was and told her sister he was devastated and may never get over it. Dex told Chase that Alexis was angry enough to kill Agent Cates. Curtis came to the Wellness center looking for TJ but found Rick instead. Rick praised TJ as Molly’s partner and said he was grateful for the entire Ashford family. Curtis asked if he was grateful for his family how could he represent the woman who hurt his daughter. When Michael (Chad Duell) arrived, Kristina asked her brother to take her anywhere away from there. Diane reminded Anna that Jason had an airtight alibi Anna herself provided. Diane added her client (Sonny) had no animosity for Agent Cates. But Sonny wanted to set the record straight and said he hated John Cates (Adam Harrington). Jordan stopped the henchman who tried to kill John Doe from escaping. She demanded the man tell her who he was working for but he refused. Lucky told Holly a fortune in diamonds would be no use to him if he were dead. Rick promised Curtis he would do right by him, Portia and Trina (Tabayna Ali). Michael and Kristina told Anna they didn’t take their father’s missing gun. Before leaving, Anna vowed she’d bring Agent Cates’ killer to justice. Alexis begged Molly not to give up on her sister. Rick told Curtis he was only handling the product liability case. Chase told Anna he was going to question Alexis about throwing the gun off the bridge. After Jason left, Kristina told Sonny she took his gun so he was in much more trouble because of her. Rick assured Curtis they were on the same team. “You want justice for your family, I’m going to deliver it.” Portia looked at Heather’s blood test results on the computer. Jordan and Anna looked at airport security footage and saw John Doe and the hitman he tried to kill him. Isaiah grabbed Elizabeth’s (Rebecca Herbst) arm and said Lucky’s name. Holly told Lucky to use the charm he inherited from his father to stay alive. Kristina told Sonny that her mom found the gun and got rid of it and promised she put it somewhere no one would ever find it. Dex and Chase arrived at Alexis’ house. Chase asked whether Alexis would be willing to come to the station to answer some questions. Jason took apart the gun and dropped it and the shell casings in acid.

Tuesday

“We don’t know who you are or where you’re from, but I’m certain of one thing…you matter to someone” Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) told Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) who suddenly woke up and grabbed her arm. “Lucky” Isaiah said. “Sooner or later you will lose, then you die” Sidwell warned Lucky (Jonathan Jackson). Carly (Laura Wright) brought Lulu flowers and told her people were pulling for her. After giving Anna (Finola Huhes) a statement about taking down the hitman after John Doe, Jordan (Tanisha Harper) left the police commissioner’s office. Jason (Steve Burton) entered. Molly (Kristen Vaganos) told Kristina (Kate Mansi) their mother was taken down to the police station for questioning about the murder of John Cates. Anna told Jason unless he was there to provide information about Cates’ murder or in an official capacity, she had work to do. Elizabeth asked for TJ (Taj Bellows) to be paged. Isaiah told Elizabeth how Lucky Spencer sent him to his home town of Port Charles. “How do you know Lucky?” Elizabeth asked. But before Isaiah could answer, TJ entered and told Nurse Baldwin she was needed at the nurses station. Molly told Kristina and Michael (Chad Duell) about Alexis (Nancy Grahan) being sent tossing a gun off a bridge overlooking Blackstone Canyon and asked what her sister knew about that. Jordan was distracted talking with Drew (Cameron Mathison) and told him about the John Doe incident. Elizabeth called Carly and told him how John Doe woke up and knew Lucky. Carly left Lulu’s room to speak with the man to get answers about Lucky. TJ realized Isaiah was a doctor from the medical questions he asked. Elizabeth told the guard to allow Carly into Isaiah’s room. Carly introduced herself as Lucky’s cousin and said finding him was a matter of life or death. Molly accused Kristina of doing something that got their mother in trouble. After Molly left, Michael urged Kristina not to say anything to Molly because she’s an ADA. Anna arrived at GH. Elizabeth told Anna how they know John Doe’s identity and he knew Lucky. Anna wanted to question Isaiah. “Good luck getting Carly out of there,” Elizabeth said. Anna entered the hospital room and introduced herself. Isaiah told Anna and Carly about how he met Lucky, how he escaped and how Lucky was still being held at Sidwell’s compound and needed him to contact the WSB. Carly left to get help. Molly came to TJ’s office and told him about Alexis being taken in for questioning for disposing of a gun the night of John Cates’ (Adam Harrington) murder. Molly said she had to look at it as an ADA to get answers but knew they all lead to one place: Kristina killed Agent Cates. The drug overlord shot the man who gave him bad news about a small load where they were digging. He ordered Lucky to search the man. Carly came to see Jack Charles Mesure) and told him she needed him to find Lucky now. Although tempted for police work, Jordan told Drew she would help him fight for democracy. Jason came to GH and told Elizabeth he heard John Doe was awake. Elizabeth told him the man knew Lucky. Jack upped the search for Lucas Lorenzo “Lucky” Spencer. Lucky earned his nickname by avoiding getting shot to death by Sidwell. Molly vowed she’d save her mom and get Kristina to confess to what she did. Anna told Jason she hoped they could be friends again one day. Lucky was able to pocket a gold nugget from when Sidwell ordered him to search the dead man. Isaiah told Elizabeth although Lucky was alive when he left, he may not still be and if he was, time was running out.

Wednesday

Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) assigned Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) as the nurse on the floor so she would have Lulu as a patient. Trina (Tabayana Ali) told Ava (Maura West) she was happy she was safe after what John Cates (Adam Harrington) did to her. “I don’t know what I’d do if anything happened to you,” Trina told Ava. Nina (Cynthia Watros) approached Rick (Rick Hearst) at The Metro Court dining room. “What have you done that would make someone want to kill you?” Anna (Finola Hughes) asked Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson). Carly (Laura West) told Jack (Charles Mesure) that her ex husband was a person of interest in the murder of John Cates. Worried about her mother, Molly (Kate Vaganos) came to the interrogation room to see Alexis (Nancy Grahan). Alexis blamed Rick for pointing the police in her direction. Ava told Trina that Nina was working on getting her a lawyer. Rick again declined to represent Ava. Anna questioned Isaiah about why Sidwell kidnapped him. Carly told Jack that Sonny (Maurice Benard) had her as his alibi because they reconnected briefly. Molly insisted she didn’t believe she killed a federal agent. “We both know it’s Kristina’s fault, not yours” Molly said. Elizabeth assured Willow that Lucky would do anything to save his family. Anna told Isaiah how Deputy Mayor Jordan Ashford saved his life. When Jordan entered, Isaiah was surprised she wasn’t a he as he thought Jordan was a man. Molly didn’t like Alexis would sacrifice herself because of Kristina. Molly told Alexis the far more likely suspects would be far more likely to cover their tracks. Ava told Trina she was grateful she chose to stand up for her but hoped Trina would never feel she paid the price for their friendship. Nina told Rick she was trying to prevent Ava from being persecuted for her past instead of the crime she was being charged with. Trina told Ava how it helped her moving on from Spencer’s (Nicholas Chavez) death by not blaming Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl). Nina understood Rick’s reason for not representing Ava because of Molly. Willow talked with Lulu and urged the comatose woman not to give up hope. Jordan told Isaiah she wanted to help because she figured he had family out there who was worried about him. While drinking fine whiskey, Carly and Jack’s conversation was interrupted by Anna. Molly warned Alexis if she didn’t give the cops an alternative explanation for what she was doing on that bridge she might find herself charged with capital murder. As Willow told Lulu she was going to get Drew (Cameron Mathison) out of her head once and for all, Elizabeth appeared at the door. Diane (Carolyn Henessy) told Alexis she got her a temporary reprieve but they both knew it wasn’t about what you did or didn’t do but about what could be proven in a court of law. Isaiah told Jordan he wasn’t hiding anything, but there were some things he wanted to forget. Ava told Nina she was glad and grateful to have her in her corner. Nina told Ava that Rick was still refusing to take her case. Molly confronted her father about telling the police Alexis threw a gun off the bridge. Rick told Molly that Ava recanted her statement and asked whether she still thought Kristina was responsible for the baby’s death. Elizabeth told Willow her biggest fear was Lucky would come back, save Lulu and then leave and where would that leave Jake. Jack received a call that they found Sidwell’s compound but it was abandoned. Ava and Nina commented they both had few friends. Rick told Molly it was possible the death of her baby was all just a terrible accident. Molly told Rick whoever was responsible for her baby’s death needed to pay. Elizabeth told Willow that Lucky loves his son but didn’t love living in one place for too long. Anna promised Carly she’d find Lucky and would bring him home for her. Diane told Alexis when she disposed of that gun and got caught, she made herself suspect number one in John Cates’ murder. Rick came to the Jerome Gallery. He told Ava he changed her mind and would take her case because Molly needed to know the truth. Rick warned if he found out she was lying, he’d make her pay. Diane told Alexis if she was charged with the murder of John Cates, she couldn’t be her lawyer. Molly came to the PCPD and said she needed to make a statement. Jack asked Carly even if they found Lucky, how was she going to rescue him. Molly gave a statement saying on the night of John Cates’ murder, no one knew where her sister Kristina was. Anna returned to Isaiah’s room at GH and told him about Sidwell’s compound being abandoned and asked whether he had any idea where Sidwell would go next. “No. How are we going to find Lucky now?” Isaiah asked.

Thursday

Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) prepared brunch for Cody (Josh Kelly), Mac (John J. York), Felicia (Kristina Wagner), Georgie and James. Tracy (Jane Eliott) announced Deception was under threat from Sonny (Maurice Benard) as an investor because he obviously killed an FBI agent. Josslyn (Eden McCoy) came to see her brother and told Michael (Chad Duell) he needed to protect mom from herself. When Jason (Steve Burton) entered Lulu’s hospital room, Carly (Laura Wright) told him “Lulu’s running out of time.” Diane (Carolyn Henessy) came to see Sonny and told him about Alexis (Nancy Grahan). Lucy (Lynn Herring), Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), Maxie (Kristen Storms) and Natalia (Eva LaRue) didn’t think Lois needed to speak more palpable and thought Tracy should have discussed Lois’ speech lessons with them first. Felicia asked Sasha to join them for breakfast. Josslyn told Michael she thinks their mom was giving Sonny and alibi which could blow up in her face. Carly told Jason how Jack Brennan (Charles Mesure) is helping find Lucky (Jonathan Jackson). Tracy said Sonny’s involvement with Deception could cause authorities to scrutinize Deception’s books. Diane asked Sonny what he was going to do about Alexis possibly being charged, tried and convicted for John Cates’ (Adam Harrington) murder. Michael told Josslyn he wasn’t shedding a tear over Cates being killed because he tried to hurt their family. Jason told Carly to stay away from Jack Brennan. James asked whether he could have a sleep over at Cody’s like Sasha. Tracy told Natalia to tell Sonny he might want to review the morality clause in his Deception investor agreement. Michael told Josslyn not to go around town talking about who is giving who an alibi because it could put the light on their mom. Diane reminded Sonny how Alexis was trying to protect his daughter and asked what they were going to do about getting Alexis out of the mess she put herself in. When Maxie arrived at the boathouse for brunch, James asked whether he could have sleepovers at Cody’s like Sasha. Cody told James he and Sasha didn’t have sleepovers. He added that Sasha wasn’t his friend, she was his girlfriend. Brook Lynn told Lois how Violet (Jophelle Love) asked when she and Chase (Josh Swickward) were having a baby. Cody took Sasha into the boathouse so they could talk in private. She said she’d love to be his girlfriend. Before leaving, Diane told Sonny he and Alexis needed to have a conversation and he hoped they wouldn’t have it from the confines of a jail cell. Carly told Jason she wanted her cousin Lulu back. Tracy accused Sasha of overstepping by preparing brunch for the Scorpios on the Quartermaine property. Sasha told Tracy she asked Olivia (Lisa LoCierco) because it was her day off and paid for the food. Mac told Tracy that was enough. Natalia came to see Sonny and told him how Tracy may invoke Deception’s morality clause. Carly told Jason she was okay with cozying up Brennan if it meant bringing Lucky home. Jason commented how Carly never did anything she didn’t want to do. Carly said she was about to ask Jason to go to Somalia to bring Lucky home. Mac told Tracy she had no right to treat employees like the way she just treated Sasha. James offered Tracy his quiche, commenting how his mom said he got angry when he was hungry. Tracy declined saying she would see what she could scrounge up. Cody thanked Mac for accepting him as his son. Mac thanked Cody for having patience until he was ready. Michael told Josslyn his family was worth forgiveness. Sonny told Natalia he was worried about Kristina and her mother who may now take the fall. “Alexis will not go down for murder on my watch” Sonny told Natalia. “Ever since Violet brought it up, it’s all I can think about,” Brook Lynn said asking how Lois felt about being a nonna.

Friday

Felicia (Kristina Wagner) said Mac (John. J. York) was glowing and told him it was smooth sailing from there. Tracy (Jane Eliott) told Lois (Rena Sofer) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) Violet (Jophelle Love) lied to her. Anna (Finola Hughes) hung up the phone before Jack (Charles Mesure) could tell Carly (Laura Wright) what he found out about Lucky (Jonathan Jackson). Michael (Chad Duell) told Kristina (Kate Mansi) if she came forward with the truth about the gun, she could be charged with murder and her mother as an accessory. Alexis (Nancy Grahan) asked Sonny how they would keep their daughter out of jail. Michael told Kristina they may not be able to distract the police from the case against Alexis but could give them another suspect. “She was here with me until she left to steal a gun from you” Alexis told Sonny. Tracy told Lois and Brook Lynn that Violet has been going around telling everyone that Brook Lynn and Chase (Josh Swickward) were having a baby. Brook Lynn said they weren’t having a baby but were thinking about it. Mac asked Felicia whether she was saying Tracy was interested in Cody which is why she wasn’t as hard on him as everyone else. Carly introduces Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) to Jason (Steve Burton). Anna demanded Jack give her Lucky’s location. Isaiah said he was coming with Jason if he was going there to get Lucky out. Jack urges Anna not to go and rescue Lucky, reminding Sidwell’s dangerous. Jack demanded Anna tell her why this Lucky character was so important to her. Felicia told Mac that Tracy was jealous of sharing Cody’s attention with his new father and a beautiful woman who was as smitten with him as he was of her. Mac said he would get Cody a new job and a new place to live. Alexis and Sonny discussed their daughter and the toll everything was taking on her. Michael told Kristina how there were criminals willing to put themselves at the scene of a crime for the right incentive but added it would undercut the plan if she came forward. Chase called Kristina and asked her to come to the PCPD to answer a few questions, adding it wasn’t a request. “You worried I’m going to incriminate Kristina or I’m going to incriminate you?” Alexis asked Sonny. Michael came with Kristina and asked to stay while Chase questioned her. He told Chase if he had any more questions to contact their lawyer. Mac received a call and told Felicia that new evidence has come to light that is enough to make an arrest. Tracy urged Brook Lynn to wait ten years to breed. Anna told Jack she was doing this for Luke (Anthony Geary) who would have done the same to bring Robin (Kimberly McCullough) home if she was in the same situation. Jason told Isaiah he was in no condition to go with him to rescue Lucky. He asked whether he knew anything about Sidwell that could give him a tactical advantage. “There’s only one…Sidwell’s girlfriend” Isaiah answered. Michael and Kristina returned to Aurora. She commented she was officially a suspect in John Cates’ (Adam Harrington) murder. Kristina told Michael that Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Alexis called Molly when they were looking for her. Alexis told Sonny that if he were innocent in Cates’ murder Diane would be free to defend her. Felicia brought over anti-malaria pills for Anna, who admitted she wasn’t going on a safari but to find Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson). Felicia said she was going with Anna. Isaiah told Carly and Jason that Sidwell calls his girlfriend English. They left the room when Carly saw Jack outside the door. Chase overheard the baby conversation and asked whether Brook Lynn was pregnant. She said she wasn’t but would like to be. Sonny told Alexis if the day came when she was charged, he’d get her the best possible defense time. “I will not let Kristina take the fall for Jagger’s death” Sonny assured Alexis. The doorbell rings. It was Mac. Chase asked Brook Lynn whether she was ready to start a family. He told her he was but was waiting on her. Carly told Jason she wouldn’t forgive herself if something happened to him. Jack told Jason he necessarily didn’t have to go to Somalia alone. Anna urged Felicia not to come with her as she felt too many people would attract attention. She checked her gun and told Felicia “You know what a cautious woman I am.” Lois commented on Tracy and Brook Lynn’s special relationship. “You won’t lose my daughter if she has a baby. It’ll only bring you two closer together…I promise” Lois told Tracy. Brook Lynn told Chase the forty-five minutes he had until he was needed back at the station was more than enough time. Carly left a voicemail for Laura (Genie Francis). Jack commented to Carly how hard it was staying behind when someone was putting themself in danger. Anna got comfortable on the plane for her eighteen hour flight to Somalia. Jason appeared and announced it was his seat. Mac told Alexis and Sonny he was there to make an arrest. He told them he wasn’t there for neither Sonny nor Kristina. He then arrested Alexis.
