Port Charles is erupting. As Thursday’s episode of General Hospital unfolds, it paints a powerful mosaic of betrayal, political warfare, buried secrets, and a fragile hope for redemption. From the mayor’s office to family living rooms, and even deep within hospital systems, the people of this town are entangled in conflicts that could either destroy or redefine them.
A Political Earthquake: Ezra vs. Laura
Ezra Bole emerges from the political shadows with one mission: to bring down Mayor Laura Collins. Accusing her of being a puppet of mob boss Sonny Corinthos, Ezra launches a blistering campaign to expose her administration’s alleged complicity. His strategy? Leaked documents, backroom testimonies, and media manipulation designed to shatter public trust and install himself as Port Charles’s savior.
But Laura isn’t folding. She meets Ezra’s smear tactics with bold transparency—releasing all communications with Sonny’s legal team and launching a public Q&A with Detective Dante Falconeri at her side. Her counterattack: honesty and accountability. Ezra retaliates by planting forged documents with the press, hoping to drown her campaign in scandal. The battle lines are drawn—and the cost will be more than just votes.
A Mother’s Love or a Legal Catastrophe?
Meanwhile, Alexis Davis faces her own moral storm. A video linking her daughter, Christina Corinthos-Davis, to a hit-and-run looms in hospital archives. Alexis orders Spinelli to hack the system and erase it. Though a master hacker, Spinelli hesitates—if caught, prison is inevitable. Alexis promises to shield him, even offer herself up in his place.
But the job triggers silent alarms. In a race against time, Alexis instructs him to destroy every trace, including car footage and backup copies. This isn’t just a digital deletion—it’s a cover-up with staggering implications.
A Daughter’s Growing Paranoia
Christina, unaware of the full scope, misreads her mother’s desperation. She suspects Alexis is plotting to have her committed to a psychiatric facility to keep her quiet. Terrified and hurt, she confides in Dante, who urges her to see the love beneath her mother’s actions. Slowly, Christina finds strength in transparency, even offering to lead a youth town hall for Laura’s campaign—shifting from mistrust to purpose.
Unraveling Crimes and Dangerous Secrets
Elizabeth Baldwin revisits the car crash that almost ended her life. Suspecting Rick Lansing’s involvement, she begins gathering evidence. Her growing resolve puts Rick and Ava Jerome’s blackmail plot under threat. Legal action looms, and the panic sets in.
Elsewhere, Drew Cain confronts Porsche Robinson with damning evidence of her role in his ketamine poisoning—an act she insists was under pressure from Nina Reeves. Drew’s fury boils over. Porsche’s tearful confession leaves Drew with one command: find Nina and make her pay.
And Willow Corinthos? She uncovers that Drew himself orchestrated the sabotage of her reunion with Michael. With support from Carly, Jason, and Sasha, Willow begins a custody battle for her children—ready to reclaim control over her life and sever ties with betrayal.
