General Hospital Recap: Drew Secretly Records Ava’s Confession as Sonny and Carly Clash Over Josslyn
There were some tense conversations on General Hospital on Wednesday, November 11! Ava (Maura West) threatened Drew (Cameron Mathison), unaware that he was banking leverage against her; Sonny (Maurice Benard) issued a warning to Carly (Laura Wright) about Josslyn (Eden McCoy); Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) provided Molly (Kristen Vaganos) with some critical information; Jude (Wil Traval) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) faced off over Phoebe (Lucia and Luna Creighton); and Trina’s (Tabyana Ali) stalker made a threatening move! Here’s everything that happened.
Recording Star
Ava went to Drew’s office to let him know Carly and Valentin were released and was furious to discover he already knew. Drew remained convinced the PCPD wouldn’t suspect them, but Ava wasn’t as confident — especially after Drew revealed that the sleeping pill she’d slipped Brennan had been from his own prescription.
Drew pointed out that a lack of motive was the defining factor that separated them from Carly and Valentin and urged Ava to let things play out. Irritated by his overconfidence, Ava warned that if she was arrested, she’d tell the police that Drew masterminded the plan to kill Brennan and even pushed him into the pool.
Once Ava left his office, Drew removed his phone from his pocket, revealing he’d recorded the entire conversation. “Gotcha,” he smirked.
Can I Get a Witness
At Miller & Davis, Molly shared with Alexis that the PCPD’s investigation into Jack Brennan’s murder was now focusing on Drew and a possible accomplice, not naming Ava, and that a witness came forward who saw them trying to load something into Drew’s trunk that night. Molly commented that the accomplice was the last person seen with Jack, and Alexis recalled her conversation with Ava, but didn’t reveal that to her daughter.
Molly disclosed that the authorities were getting a search warrant for Drew’s SUV to search for Jack’s DNA, but they still needed to determine a motive. Molly was shocked when Alexis stated that she knew Brennan was blackmailing Drew over something corrupt the former congressman had done while in office.
Since that information would be huge to the D.A.’s case, Molly wondered whether her mother would be willing to testify. Even though sending Drew to prison would likely destroy her relationship with Scout, Alexis was game, declaring that she refused to let a murderous bastard continue to raise her granddaughter.
Parent Trapped
Brook Lynn invited Jude to Deception to discuss Phoebe. Jude thanked Brook Lynn for saving his daughter’s life, and Brook Lynn begged him to leave Phoebe with the only family she’d ever known.
Things took a turn when Jude tried to plead his case by showing Brook Lynn documents from the fertility clinic. She spat that the paperwork meant nothing without a court-ordered DNA test to contest her and Chase’s sealed, closed adoption.
Pushing back, Jude threatened to have the adoption unsealed, and Brook Lynn asked him to name his price to walk away. Reaffirming that he would fight to get his daughter, Jude apologized in advance for how that would hurt Brook Lynn, then angrily slammed his envelope on the table and stormed out.
Shaken, Brook Lynn angrily shoved everything off the table, then threw her mug at the door with a scream. Out in the hallway, Jude appeared equally rattled by the exchange.
Remorse Code
While checking out the piers for JJE’s upcoming renovation, Josslyn told Hudson he’d been right to tell her to stay away from Sonny. She explained how she’d unleashed on Sonny at his house and her former stepsister Avery overheard everything.
Josslyn didn’t regret what she said about Sonny, because it was all true, but she did regret not leaving once she knew Donna and Avery were home. Hudson reassured her that Avery would eventually find out who Sonny really was, but Josslyn sorrowfully wished Avery hadn’t found out from her.
Push Present
Sonny sought out Carly at her office to fill her in on his encounter with Josslyn. Carly pointed out that Josslyn hadn’t disparaged him directly to Avery, but Sonny spat that Josslyn had gone too far by trying to poison his daughter against him and asked Carly to rein Josslyn in.
When Carly wondered what would happen if that didn’t work, Sonny said his last act of grace was telling Josslyn to leave his house, insinuating that he would retaliate.
As a concerned Carly contemplated his parting words, Sonny stepped into the hallway and made a phone call, telling the person on the other end that he wanted all eyes on Josslyn. “She’s pushed too far,” Sonny pronounced. “I’m going to push back.”
Performance Issues
Dante arrived at the Cat’s Eye Lounge to discuss his meeting with Portia and Heather, and Trina and Gio filled him in about the roses and fan site. He agreed to see if there was a connection between Trina’s fan and Heather and urged them to keep a low profile.
With the Port Charles Arena gig on the horizon, Gio assured his father that the record label would provide extra security. Later, Gio and Trina found a new bouquet of red roses from Trina’s “biggest fan.” But this time, it came with a foreboding note telling Trina not do a show without them again!
