It was an exciting week in Port Charles as Lucas joined forces with Sonny and Laura, and Jack sent Nina to pass along a message to Valentin. Is there a future for Cassius with the WSB — and Josslyn? Let’s discuss that and more in an all-new General Hospital <\/em>Commentary for the week ending June 5, 2026.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Dear readers, back in the 80\u2019s was this band called Talking Heads, and they had this song called \u201cAnd She Was.\u201d This week on General Hospital, <\/em>Nina snarled, \u201cI hope she was worth it!\u201d to Valentin, and he passionately responded, \u201cShe was.\u201d My giant jukebox brain started spinning this tune<\/a> in in my brain. That line and its delivery made me swoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Varly Storm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I could spend this entire column rhapsodizing about \u201cVarly.\u201d Valentin and Carly have taken us by storm. Watching the internet feed blow up every time they glance at one another, I hope the powers that be realize they\u2019ve struck gold with these two and don\u2019t immediately break them up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, if you have read my columns for any length of time, you will know that I am not Nina\u2019s biggest fan (all the while loving Cynthia Watros!) but right now I also see some sparks with Nina and Jack. Although it is a little creepy how Nina and Carly have shared so many lovers. When Carly snuggled up to Valentin in front of Nina it made me giddy. Can we just have an entire Carly and Valentin episode once he\u2019s truly pardoned and free man? I love them together, but I also love how much Nina hates them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two Strokes, One Wicked Birdie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I ask you my friends, should I give Nina points for not injecting Jack again? Maybe. It is risky to her and to Willow, because Jack could blab about their crimes at any point in time, but Nina feels guilty for crippling Jack in the first place. This show is so silly sometimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would think that some new hot detective like Joe Fitzpatrick trying to make a name for himself would ask the same questions Carly asked Nina, \u201cWhy did two healthy men have strokes at Willow\u2019s house?\u201d and start digging around. But hey, Dante is the Police Commissioner and no longer working the streets, Chase is hanging out at the pool with Willow, and Joe just got started. The PCPD needs some new recruits. Maybe Cam should come home and go to the police academy? We need more than one working cop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Innocent Afternoon Delight<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Back to Willow. Chase said to BLQ, \u201cHey, it was all an accident, Willow just stopped by to look for a toy.\u201d Okay, sure, but then why was she in her bikini and in the lake at her ex-husband\u2019s house? I mean, she did disrobe at some point. She didn\u2019t come to the house in her swimsuit, right? Also, if I am with a guy and we are both in our bathing suits, and I sidle over to him and put my hand on his shoulder\u2026 it\u2019s not innocent. (Cue Dan calling me a hussy!) Sure, Tracy jumped to conclusions, but was she totally off base after what she witnessed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, I saw an interview with Katelyn MacMullen, and she swears<\/em> that Willow\u2019s motivations are pure. She said that Willow truly is not trying to seduce Chase. She is offering him this job because she knows he got fired helping her. Remember Willow knows she actually did<\/em> shoot Drew. I am so excited for the day when Chase sees the light and discovers that Willow lied to him during the entire trial. But right now, BLQ is lying to him, too. Which secret will come out first? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weird thing about Willow right now is that she\u2019s a terrible person doing dastardly things, but she is also trying to be a good congressperson and actually help the people in her district. I mean, far be it from me to say, but I wish half of our congresspeople right now were assholes at home but were still trying to do a good job at running our country, instead of just being assholes all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phoebe’s Daddy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Readers, please don\u2019t hate me, but I see a potential scenario forming. First, we were right when we suspected that Ethan was Phoebe\u2019s daddy. That\u2019s a baby Spencer. That\u2019s Luke\u2019s granddaughter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let\u2019s suppose that Chase and BLQ adopt Phoebe. Then their marriage implodes. Then Ethan starts hanging around the Q mansion to visit Tracy (and to spy on Phoebe) and he and BLQ start spending more time together. I can see a potential BLQ and Ethan pairing because I don\u2019t think it\u2019s going to be as easy to let Phoebe go as he thinks it is. Imagine when Tracy finds out that the baby living in her household is Luke\u2019s granddaughter! Heaven help anyone who comes near Phoebe for the rest of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brook Lynn’s Secret <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If Chase finds out Brook Lynn is withholding info from him on Curtis and Jordan\u2019s accident, he will lose it.  Despite the fact that she did not cause the accident, did not do any damage to either of them, despite that Jordan and Curtis caused their own accident, and that BLQ didn\u2019t even know there was an accident until after the fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Willow is an attempted murderer, not once but continually because every time she injects Drew, she has no idea if that drug will impact him like when she first jabbed him in the neck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What The Future Holds<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I feel like this storyline is going to have a very long arc. Chase and BLQ will break up, he will get together with Willow, then he will find out Willow is guilty, and someday, far off in the future, he and Brook Lynn may reconcile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heck, I can even see Willow and Drew reconciling. I can hear you right now saying \u201cNo way! That will never happen!\u201d But if you are a longtime General Hospital<\/em> viewer, watching Liz dating Ric again after all the truly messed up things he did, you know that soaps can rewrite or ignore the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, Ethan saying he grew up in an orphanage instead of actual General Hospital<\/em> history, which is that he was adopted by the Lovetts who raised him until they died when he was 15 and then he struck out on his own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, On Spoon Island… <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another example of history changing, and this might be my favorite, concerns Josslyn. Josslyn has been playing at Wyndemere since she and Spencer were kids, and yet she tried to escape through the front door! She is now a trained spy, but as a kid, she spent lots of times on the grounds at Wyndemere and probably knows 30 ways out of that castle. Does anyone remember Spencer\u2019s birthday party when he was burned in a fire? Anyone remember the Chupacabra storyline with the kids all at the Cassadine stables where Heather Webber convinced the kids there was a monster hiding in the tack room?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went on YouTube searching for videos of Spencer\u2019s birthday party where he was burned and it said, \u201cThis video has been removed due to violating YouTube\u2019s standards.\u201d So, apparently, they don\u2019t want videos of kids on fire. I get it. But I did find this gem<\/a> of all the kids at Kelly\u2019s diner when they were little. Enjoy the video and just trust me, this is not Josslyn\u2019s first trip to Wyndemere, she has been visiting there her entire life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, a montage of Spence<\/a>r as a kid with glimpses of other General Hospital<\/em> kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agent Jacks’ Great Escape<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

But Josslyn making all the power go out on Spoon Island by taking out a light bulb and rearranging the wires? Hey electricians in the crowd \u2013 is that even possible? And then she gets out and goes to the front door? I howled. When I went to tweet about it, I saw Liz beat me to the punch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I know Ava told Valentin that the tunnels were supposedly sealed off, but isn\u2019t there a back door, or 12 side doors? I mean this is a castle. Last year, I went to Europe and toured lots of castle type buildings and there were a plethora of paths and entrances in every single one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Busted By Sidwell<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

But alas, Josslyn was met at the front door by an armed Sidwell, and after Cassius stopped Jenz from killing her, Josslyn is back in basement jail. On the upside, soon she will have a roommate as Cullum kidnapped Liesl at the end of Friday’s episode, and next week\u2019s previews show an unconscious Dr. O. in the room with Josslyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kidnapping, Blackmail, and Soapy Twists<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My dear readers, Kathleen Gati is one of my favorites. Dr. Liesl Obrecht is a fantastic character. Before being kidnapped, she caught on to Willow and Nina\u2019s schemes, saw Drew blinking S.O.S. and warned Nina that her daughter Willow was a viper, not a victim. Liesl told Nina that Willow would turn on her, but I didn\u2019t hear Nina offer up that Willow already did turn on her by making her inject Drew and blackmailing her. Nina refuses to see that she spawned a second Nelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of being blackmailed, Lucas saved Sonny and Laura from blackmail if\u2026IF Pascal was telling the truth and there are no extra copies or digital copies of the photos of Dalton\u2019s body. And if Sidwell doesn\u2019t have backup plans to continue to control them. Also, if Lucas hasn\u2019t just been busted after his second break-in of Jenz\u2019s safe, etc. I don\u2019t think we can pop the Champagne and celebrate just yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I hope it\u2019s soon because this has all dragged on far too long. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cassius’ Next Move<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I am looking forward to next week. Imagine when Cassius is forced into being his mother\u2019s captor! I mean, Pascal is gone, who else is going to feed and water the hostages? Jack is in the hospital, so Ross Cullum will have to show up at the WSB office at some point, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine if Joss has to tell Liesl that Nathan isn\u2019t Nathan — and that Liesl’s other<\/em> son kidnapped Joss and has been holding her for weeks! Imagine if Liesl and Joss team up to escape or to ruin Sidwell and Cullum\u2019s project! That all sounds so exciting for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

May-December Romance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I know there is a lot of differences of opinions on the Josslynn and Cassius dynamic. I know Eden McCoy is twenty years younger than Ryan Paevey. But seriously, so what? Remember Ava and Morgan? Nikolas and Catherine Bell? Sonny and Emily? It\u2019s not that General Hospital<\/em> has never had couples with massive age differences before. I still like their banter. I mean, make it like Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepherd in Moonlighting<\/em>, and keep that sexual tension sizzling for a year. Just keep them onscreen together. They have that thing that makes it hard to look away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pascal’s Getaway<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Okay my fellow soap lovers, tell me on a scale from 1-10 how loud you laughed when Pascal was desperately trying to get away. First, everyone knows you have to take a launch to get on or off of Spoon Island. I have questions. Where was that parking lot? How did Pascal get there? How did Sonny know where to find his car? Where was Pascal going to drive other than to the launch where Sidwell\u2019s boat would be waiting for him? I will say our show was interrupted that day, so maybe I missed how Pascal got off the island? If so, please fill me in. All I knew was Pascal escaped, and then suddenly he was in the car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But all of my questions aside, the scene where Pascal was trying to start his car and Sonny leaned over, fist full of wires saying, \u201cNeed a lift?\u201d had me howling! I know I shouldn\u2019t love Sonny when he behaves like a thug, but heaven help me, I do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Puts Her Foot Down<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Sonny wants to end Sidwell, take him on a little trip to the Pine Barrens, and be done with him, but Laura told Sonny she can\u2019t look the other way while Sonny murders someone. She wants to do things on the up-and-up, turn Sidwell in for murdering Dalton, and have him convicted legally. But Laura knows that it won\u2019t be easy to take Sidwell down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucas is the surprise here. He\u2019s willingly working with Sonny, breaking into people\u2019s safes, and anything else to get justice for Marco because his guilt is so steady and strong. If Lucas hadn\u2019t asked Marco to get a vial of Britt\u2019s meds, Marco might still be alive, so Lucas feels compelled to take down Sidwell and his gang of villains to make Marco\u2019s sacrifice worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time To Say Goodbye<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I love Carlo Rota. He\u2019s been a mesmerizing villain on General Hospital<\/em>, but sadly, his time has come to an end. As with all villains, they have to lose at some point and our heroes have to win, even when our heroes are as flawed as Sonny and Britt. Pascal may be the first to go, but Cullum and Sidwell have to go, too. If Laura gets her way and Sidwell gets arrested versus murdered, that means a few years down the road, Sidwell can come back to town to play another day, but I will be shocked if that happens. I think all three: Pascal, Cullum and Sidwell will die. I mean, Jason is coming back soon, and he won\u2019t be taking any chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Jack? He\u2019s no villain. He\u2019s a good guy who made some errors in judgment. I would love him to stick around and take over the WSB again once he recovers. First, he has to free Valentin and drop all the pending charges against him so Valentin can keep canoodling with Carly. I insist. Second, Jack has to make amends with Joss and Carly, which I believe he will. Third, when Anna gets back to Port Charles, I can see Jack being instrumental in her recovery by showing her that she was duped into believing Faison was alive. And lastly, I think Jack has to recruit Cassius Faison. Because I don\u2019t want to lose Cassius. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paging Dr. Corinthos-Davis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But back to General Hospital <\/em>disregarding history. So, Kristina is going to med school. Sure. Okay. She was pre-law before, but like Paris Gellar on Gilmore Girls<\/em>, sometimes genius girls can get into both med school and law school and struggle to decide which passion to follow. But this is Kristina we are talking about, a girl who fell for a cult leader, and who has never one time mentioned being interested in medicine. I get that Kate Mansi quit and that they have to write her off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, my theories are as follows. Either the powers that be are giving her an extended time off for a project and know she will be back in a year or two — or they are eliminating the discussion we are all having about immediately recasting with Lexi Ainsworth by sending the character to L.A. for four years. There’s also a possibility it\u2019s the first idea that popped into their heads at the writers’ room discussion table. I used to be in creative meetings all the time and lots of ideas started with \u201cHey! I know! Let\u2019s say she\u2019s going to med school!\u201d and everyone else just says \u201cSure, cool,\u201d so the meeting can be over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kristina’s Future<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At first, I rejected the new Kristina and new Molly because the originals were let go so abruptly after Haley Pullos\u2019 troubles. And they had a merry-go-round of Mollys. Kristen Vaganos lasted, and I have come to appreciate her in the role. I came to accept Kate Mansi in the role of Kristina too, but I loved Lexi so much that it was hard for me to ever embrace Kate in the same way. If Kristina is really off canvas for four years of medical school, I think that will be a shame because she\u2019s a confidant of Michael\u2019s, and a character who has ties to half the town. But every time she says she is going to med school, I keep trying to picture her coming back as Dr. Davis and I just can\u2019t. Am I being a jerk?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought maybe Ethan was coming back and they were going to put the two of them together, but I was wrong. I already told you about my theory on Ethan and BLQ, but what if instead Ethan is paired with Ava? They had a little somethin\u2019-somethin\u2019 too, but Ava has chemistry with everyone so it\u2019s hard to say. Ava thinks Ethan is using the Qs as a mark \u2013 saying they can have Phoebe and then hitting them up for money once they are attached to her. But I believe his sincere motives. But now that Ava has put the idea in his head, who knows?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Will Valentin and Jack “ex machina” again — or “in omnia paratus” or “carpe diem” each other again? Will Pascal bid au revoir to Port Charles or summon the savoir faire to get out of his current predicament? IsJoe Fitzpatrick, like Detective Taggart before him, going to realize the PCPD is not really a \u201cby the book\u201d sort of place? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Willow accidentally end up in her bikini at the office the first day Chase comes to work for her? Will anyone on Willow\u2019s team, her, Chase or Kai ever go to Washington D.C. at all? Is anyone from General Hospital<\/em> going to share a piece of their 16,000th episode cake with us? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will the newly SORASED (Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome) Scout be more like Sam and fight anyone who gets in her way? (Bring back Kelly Monaco!) Will Jacinda heed Chase\u2019s warnings about Michael or will she be Chase\u2019s next love interest once he finds out both Willow and Brooke Lynn are liars? Will Drew have to get new Mr. Magoo glasses after spending months rolling his eyes? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Couldn\u2019t Lucas have just let Pascal have one single necktie? Will Liesl crack me up with more hilarious one-liners like \u201cI don\u2019t care about your scheming, just do it better.\u201d Hahaha. Will Carly let Valentin move into her bedroom now that most of the town knows he\u2019s hiding there anyway?<\/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
