Bang! Sidwell’s Silver Bullet"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
Just when things got interesting with Dalton, Sidwell puts an end to the evil scientist. Will Laura take the fall — or will the law close in on Sonny? How long can Britt keep her secrets from Jason? It’s time to delve into a new General Hospital<\/em> commentary for the week ending November 21, 2025.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Dear readers, it\u2019s been a while since we’ve seen Sidwell go full Sidwell. We have watched Jenz behave like a perfect gentleman, having tea with Lucy Coe, and attending business meetings with the movers and shakers of Port Charles. But until this week on General Hospital<\/em>, we hadn\u2019t seen him pull out a gun in his living room and shoot someone to death point blank. Without warning, and apparently without regard for any DNA cops might find in his carpet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stunt casting gone wrong<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shocking! But also, anti-climactic and disappointing. I\u2019m adding this to my long list of stunt casting gone wrong. General Hospital <\/em>hyped the fact that they were bringing Daniel Goddard to Port Charles and my heart leapt with glee! As a fan of The Young and the Restless<\/em>, I was anticipating the romantic leading man type instead of evil scientist type. He could have been a great Jax recast, and a love match for Carly. He could have been a new doctor at General Hospital<\/em> and a love match for Liz. But alas, we barely saw him. His biggest scenes only aired this week. I thought, \u201cOh finally! His storyline is going to kick in!\u201d but before the end of the episode he was dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dead end<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When the kids didn\u2019t find any animals in the lab, I thought maybe Dalton had been a pawn, just like Britt, being forced to perform evil deeds while being blackmailed or something, but nope. Now he\u2019s just another General Hospital<\/em> corpse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Britt went to Sidwell to get help for Rocco, but Sidwell did not understand the assignment. She wanted him to get Professor Dalton to drop the charges, but instead Sidwell murdered someone in front of her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murder on Spoon Island <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Okay, now some logistics\u2026 Sidwell was in Wyndemere on Spoon Island. He murdered someone, and the next thing we know, that body is in Laura\u2019s trunk. So, someone (presumably Pascal) put the body on the launch to sail to the docks. Then they found out where Laura was parked, drove the body there. Next, they somehow snuck the body into her car undetected while everyone was on site watching election results? And this all occurred while Laura told off Ezra for five minutes? Sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A desperate plan <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile across town, Charlotte and Danny are coming up with a horrible plan to lie to the police which will make things much worse for everyone. Laura was on camera threatening Dalton publicly and now the body is in her trunk, so Ezra Boyle may end up the mayor yet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Laura found Dalton in the trunk, her blood curdling scream was so believable! When she put her hand down to his neck, I was screaming at my TV. \u201cNo! Don\u2019t do it! Don\u2019t touch him!!!\u201d She didn\u2019t listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura phones a friend <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With Kevin out of town and Anna MIA, Laura scoured her contacts for a \u201cWho to call when you find a corpse in your trunk\u201d list, and the name she chose was Sonny. And of course, Sonny immediately came to her rescue and whisked Laura away. Genie Francis hasn\u2019t missed a beat in all these years. When Sonny makes her think through who did this to her and she concludes that it was Sidwell, I could fear Laura\u2019s fear in my toes. She\u2019s remarkable. I love scenes with Maurice Benard and Genie. Their alter egos have so much history together and it plays out in every word they speak to one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But here\u2019s the catch; Nathan saw Laura and Sonny together and he knows she had a flat tire, so when things come out, what will Nathan do? I still can\u2019t decide if there is a twist to Nathan\u2019s return, or if he\u2019s still the same lovable stand-up guy we have always known. If he tries to blackmail Laura or Sonny, I\u2019ll know he\u2019s Peter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cleanup crew<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ha. Sonny called Jason, and naturally Jason ditched Britt immediately to run to Sonny\u2019s rescue. Apparently, Jason dug under Dalton\u2019s bloody corpse to get the spare tire and change it so he could drive Laura\u2019s car to Mob Wash Car Detailing where all DNA is eliminated from your murder car. It reminded me of the scene in Pulp Fiction<\/em> where they call in The Wolf (Harvey Keitel.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sonny assured Laura that her car would be in her driveway tomorrow without a body in the trunk and all spiffed up. She figured out that Sidwell is the most likely culprit as Drew and Ezra are just stooges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drew the stooge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When Laura met with Drew this week, she told him that it\u2019s not too late for him to redeem himself and to go back to being the decent man he once was. If Drew found out that Sidwell murdered Dalton and tried to frame Laura, would you forgive Drew if he came forward? Is there a way that you can see yourself liking Drew again? It\u2019s a tough swallow for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Britt knows what Sidwell did and is in her room at Bobbie\u2019s shivering under the covers. Right when Jason was about to promise Britt, he would put her first, Sonny sent out the Bat Signal and proved otherwise. I feel sorry for Britt, so I really wish Dr. O would try to work things out with Britt. I know that she and Britt are at odds, but if she understood the whole picture and knew Britt was being blackmailed for meds to stay alive, I think she\u2019d soften. Liesl could make easy work of Sidwell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drew is worse than Sidwell<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I know it\u2019s terrible to say, but I think that I hate Drew more than I hate Sidwell even though Sidwell is much worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact that Drew is trying to frame Michael for shooting him — added to the fact that I LOVE Michael — may have a lot to do with that. But seriously, when do you think, our General Hospital <\/em>writers are going to let us in on who actually pulled the trigger? My husband and I are both writers, and when we see storylines that go on and on without resolution, we always say \u201cThe writers haven’t decided who it is yet.\u201d Maybe that\u2019s it? They are waiting to see who doesn\u2019t re-sign their contract and make them the shooter? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know, but there are many suspects to choose from and compelling storylines in many directions. I hope it\u2019s Portia and that she goes down for it, Britt takes over as Chief of Staff, Jordan gets Curtis and Trina to realize Portia is a cheater and not an innocent victim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego<\/s> Anna Devane? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This crime would be easier for us to figure out if we had Anna Devane on the case. It seems very strange to me that everyone unquestioningly accepts that she was called out of town on a WSB case. If only Robert was still in town, he would definitely smell a rat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new man<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here is something that I loved this week, the redemption arc of Ric Lansing. Is Ric really ready to make peace with Alexis and Sonny? Oh, I hope so. Ric was my absolute favorite love interest for Alexis of all time. They had incredible chemistry together. I know Ric will always be low-key pining for Liz, but I also don\u2019t think she will ever take him back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps Ric scored some points with Alexis by confiding in her about Portia\u2019s motive to kill Drew. In addition, I think it bears saying that Ric and Sonny making peace is necessary right now. In real life, Carolyn Hennesy is facing health challenges, so Diane is AWOL. Alexis can\u2019t be Sonny\u2019s lawyer, and certainly his arch enemy Sidwell\u2019s son isn\u2019t a great choice. Elsewhere, Scotty Baldwin have vanished into the air, and according to Kin Shriner they have reassigned his dressing room, so it seems Ric gets the prize until Diane is back on General Hospital<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that Ric is legitimately trying to do a good job and had a good deal in place until Dalton lied and ADA Turner took him at his word. Since Justine double crossed Ric with the deal they made, I wonder if Sonny and Donna are going to be inviting her over for pasta or pancakes again? Probably not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The usual suspects <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Now that Dalton is dead, Sonny will be the number one suspect in Dalton’s murder, with Mayor Collins not far behind. Will Ric have to defend Sonny against murder charges? Will Britt come forward and out Sidwell? No. Not as long as he is holding her life saving medication over her head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paging Brad <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It seems by now Britt should have tracked Brad down and asked him to run the potion through the General Hospital lab to try to isolate the formula and make a new batch! I hope Brad comes back by the time Lucas discovers that Carly is right thar Marco is dangerous and he hightails it out of Wyndemere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where IS Brad? And where is Aunt Selina? Sidwell chased her out of town, but I didn\u2019t think she\u2019d stay away. I think she has enough goodwill with Sonny that if she explained everything to him, he would believe her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few of Britt’s secrets <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But I digress. Now that we are certain that Britt didn\u2019t fake her death on purpose, and that she was kidnapped out of the clutches of death and immediately put to work at the Five Poppies, I feel sympathy for her. When she was in her room cowering under her covers crying, I wanted to hug her. She has no one to turn to. Her own mother isn\u2019t speaking to her, and Jason wants to help but is unreliable. He always puts Sonny first, even though he swore he was going to put Danny first. If he was putting Danny first, he wouldn\u2019t be out hiding bodies which could get him arrested and would leave Danny without a parent. But there Jason is. Britt is right to be cautious even though she doesn\u2019t have to be quite so mean about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’ up pussycat?<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Carly wants to obliterate Jack Brennan, but she is forcing herself to cozy up to him and pretend that nothing is wrong. The look of disgust on her face while he was on top of her was giving Pepe Le Pew\/Penelope Pussycat vibes.  Brennan seemingly thinks they are back on track, while Carly is trying to stomach the thought of sleeping with the man who recruited her kid to be a WSB agent and lied to Carly for months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will happen tomorrow dear readers? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Will Charlotte get to share a cell with her Papa when she is convicted in the lab break-in incident? Will the good people of Port Charles still think their mayor is a badass when her DNA is found on a dead man? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can Sonny keep his piers, or will Ezra Boyle call for a recount and engage shady tactics to get his way? Will Joss and Vaughn keep sneaking around to see each other even though I secretly still miss Dex? Are Liz\u2019s kids going to come home for Thanksgiving or Christmas, or will she be dining alone with a TV dinner? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Willow be able to keep herself from breaking the court order to stay away from her kids? Will Michael and Jacinda get married, so she won\u2019t have to testify against her new husband? Are Cody and Molly going to write a cowboy Christmas movie script together and then say “Yee Haw” after kissing under the mistletoe?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, will you check out Dan J Kroll’s latest Beyond The Gates<\/a><\/strong><\/em> commentary? This week his column is called A Tsunami of Anger<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only tomorrow knows, dear readers, and I will tune in tomorrow as long as there are tomorrows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
