Before she could cry, &#8220;I was framed!&#8221; The WSB whisked her off kicking and screaming to Switzerland. Is Willow next? A <em>General Hospital<\/em> commentary for the week ending September 18, 2026.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dear readers, I just came back from a cruise, and I was way behind on <em>General Hospital<\/em>. Even though Wi-Fi at sea was available, I was busy drinking Champagne, floating in turquoise waters, and singing around a baby grand on board with my theatre friends. The people of Port Charles were not my priority. But now I am back again in this sleepy little Florida town, and I\u2019m all caught up on the antics of my favorite soapy nut jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-general-hospital-s-new-theme\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-1\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\"><em>General Hospital&#8217;s<\/em> New Theme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s a theme on <em>General Hospital<\/em> lately, and it can only be surmised as \u201cCover your ass.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-drew-makes-a-move-while-ava-hangs-back-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drew makes a move, while Ava hangs back&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nina was framed by Drew for Jack\u2019s disappearance. Despite the fact that her supposed BFF Ava has a tick bite from trip to the woods to bury Jack\u2019s body, Ava covered her ass and said nothing as Nina was carted away in handcuffs. At least she didn\u2019t throw her head back, laugh out loud and toss back a shot of whiskey like Tracy Q did, which by the way, was my favorite moment of the week! Always keep your eyes on Jane Elliot. She\u2019s solid gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-brook-lynn-s-silence\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brook Lynn&#8217;s Silence<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brook Lynn knew she was the other driver in Curtis and Jordan\u2019s crash, but she covered her ass because she didn\u2019t want it to affect her adoption as she had been drinking and driving that night. For the record,&nbsp;I can\u2019t express how much I dislike everyone dumping on BLQ, because for the 8 millionth time *she *did *not *cause *the *accident. It was not a hit-and-run. She swerved out of the way of a reckless driver. Ugh.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-trina-s-double-standards\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trina&#8217;s Double Standards<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trina, who is being extremely judgmental of BLQ for not speaking up about her car being involved in Curtis\u2019 accident, is the exact same person who kept quiet about an attempted murder to cover her ass. She and Kai didn\u2019t come forward when they realized that Willow shot Drew because then they would have to explain why they broke into Drew\u2019s house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-scout-s-secret-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scout&#8217;s Secret&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scout covered her ass by letting Drew think she snuck out to see Danny, while instead she was out kissing Rocco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-justine-s-lover\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Justine&#8217;s Lover<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Justine is covering her ass by hiding her relationship with Sonny so she can have a successful law enforcement career while banging a lifelong (But currently reformed) mobster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-lucy-s-lies\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lucy&#8217;s Lies<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lucy covered her ass by blowing BLQ\u2019s secret because she lied to the cops about Willow. And she doesn\u2019t even seem a little bit sorry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-anna-s-breakdown\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-2\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">Anna&#8217;s Breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And finally, there&#8217;s Anna. Anna has half the town covering her ass for luring Britt into the woods to murder Britt. I know Britt can be self-involved sometimes, but this time I am on her side! Even though Anna was not in her right mind, it doesn\u2019t mean Britt needs to just let it slide!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-forgiveness\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forgiveness<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If someone tried to kill you, or someone you loved, would you not tell the cops and just let it go because they had mental instability? Of course not! Someone on X (formerly Twitter) said that Britt should forgive Anna because Britt wants people to forgive Britt for stealing an embryo. I pointed out that was 15 years ago, and Britt was almost murdered just the day before. Maybe in 15 years Britt will be over Anna trying to shoot her in the head. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the years, the WSB drove Anna mad, drove Dante mad, drove Valentin mad, and soon they will drive Joss mad. I\u2019m with Carly. It\u2019s not a good career choice. And since Joss\u2019 entire reason for getting into the WSB was to bring Sonny down and now he and Jason have gone legit, what now? Will Joss stay in the WSB anyway because she likes kicking people\u2019s asses? (I asked Dan how many times I could say \u201cass\u201d and he didn\u2019t answer.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-doghouse\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-3\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">The Doghouse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who am I missing? There is so much to unpack in each one of these plotlines, but next I just want to talk about characters I am frustrated with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-trina-paints-curtis-the-victim-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Trina Paints Curtis the Victim&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay, Trina, your dad and Jordan almost ran BLQ off the road while Curtis and Jordan were making out. While driving a vehicle on a curvy road. So, how is it BLQ\u2019s fault your dad is in jail? Portia and Isaiah told Curtis a million times that Isaiah was with a patient that night. Curtis refused to believe it because he was jealous of Isaiah touching Portia\u2019s belly and saying Isaiah would be a better father than Curtis, so Curtis decked Isaiah. None of that is BLQ\u2019s fault. This is a cautionary tale to all. If you have a hunch about something, but no facts, maybe your hunch is wrong! Curtis did this to himself. He got locked in on the idea that Isaiah was at fault, and nothing could dissuade Curtis of that notion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used to love Trina, but her hypocrisy right now is infuriating. The reason Drew was trapped in a locked-in state for months is&nbsp;<em>directly<\/em><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>related to the fact that Trina and Kai sat on evidence in Drew\u2019s shooting, which allowed Willow to get away with it! Willow would have been convicted and in prison and she never would have had the opportunity to jab Drew in the neck with paralytics, which led to Jack being jabbed by Willow\u2019s nut job mother! So, using Trina\u2019s logic, she is responsible for more ruined lives than Brooke Lynn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-double-double-toil-and-trouble\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Double, Double Toil and Trouble<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My friend and fellow <em>General Hospital<\/em> columnist Liz Masters had the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LizMastersSC\/status\/2099929483318813118\">funniest tweet<\/a> this week. She shared a screenshot of Liesl, Britt, Nina and Willow having drinks at Metro Court&#8217;s garden restaurant and said, \u201cAll that\u2019s missing here is a big bubbling cauldron.\u201d And I laughed and laughed. But it was spot on! Everyone sitting at that table is capable of dastardly things! And let\u2019s not forget poor departed Nelle and Nina\u2019s mom Madeline! The only normal person in this family was Nathan. He was like the Marilyn Munster of the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"206\" height=\"260\" src=\"https:\/\/danjkroll.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-163.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6373\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-emma-on-the-warpath\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Emma On The Warpath<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I understand that Emma wants to support her grandma. I love her fierce loyalty to Anna. But Emma&#8217;s attacks on Josslyn and Britt for telling the authorities that Anna almost murdered someone is nuts. If Carly tried to shoot someone in the woods, Emma would make a beeline to the PCPD to turn Carly in &#8212; even if Joss begged Emma not to. And Emma is still calling Britt \u201cthe Britch\u201d for things Britt did 16 years ago. I am glad that Felicia pointed out to Emma that this time, Anna was the one in the wrong. Love your grandma. Support your grandma. But don\u2019t become a Nina and cover for Anna&#8217;s crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-dumb-and-divorced\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dumb and Divorced<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This man is the dumbest cop to ever be on the Port Charles Police Department. Willow is guilty of 20 crimes, but Chase thinks she is an angel. Chase is&nbsp;<em>certain<\/em>&nbsp;Michael shot Drew. (Michael didn\u2019t.) Chase was&nbsp;<em>certain<\/em>&nbsp;that Tracy pushed Willow into the lake. (Tracy didn\u2019t.) Chase is ready to leave his wife and break up his marriage over BLQ\u2019s lies of omission but cannot see through Willow\u2019s flat out lies and manipulations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Willow cheated on Chase with Michael when they thought he was dying. She also cheated on Michael with Drew after Michael nursed her through cancer. Willow shot and drugged her husband, Drew. And she framed Nina to ensure her cooperation by tricking Nina into injecting Drew with the paralytic and kept the syringe with Nina&#8217;s fingerprints on it! Jack was right when he warned Nina that Willow would throw Nina under the bus in a heartbeat to protect herself.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Chase is still 100% certain that Willow is an innocent victim. The day I am most anticipating right now is the day he finds out Willow\u2019s crimes. But will that ever happen?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-overdue-justice\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-4\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">Overdue Justice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this summer, the day I was most anticipating was Drew waking up from his locked in syndrome and taking Nina and Willow down, but that fizzled out. I despise anticlimactic writing. The big build up, the weeks of Drew wiggling one finger, while we rubbed our hands together and said, \u201cOh boy! The big payoff is coming!\u201d And then Drew comes out of the lake Nina pushed him into and&#8230; no payoff. Instead, Willow says, \u201cI have dirt on you, so you can\u2019t turn me in\u201d <em>Sigh<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-an-odd-turn\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Odd Turn<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I feel for Anna, but I have watched Anna on <em>General Hospital<\/em> for 40 years and it\u2019s an odd turn that now all of her past trauma is catching up with her in her 60\u2019s. Yes, Cullum gaslit Anna into thinking Faison was alive, but after months in a psychiatric hospital and going back home and being reassured Faison is still dead, it just seemed strange Anna would have months of imaginary conversations with Peter. This week she even admitted that while she was talking to him, she was somewhat aware that he wasn\u2019t real. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If any mental health professionals are out there, please let me know, is this a real thing? Can past trauma finally hit you decades later?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-and-then-an-anti-hero-comes-along\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">And Then an Anti-Hero Comes Along<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing I loved this week was when Valentin was offering to whisk Anna away and she refused. I loved that she noticed how centered and happy Valentin is with Carly. And I love that Anna wants what is best for Valentin and won\u2019t allow him to sacrifice his hard-won happy life by trying to protect her. I feel so blessed in my life because I am also still friends with my exes and I have experienced that \u201cI want the absolute best for you,\u201d graciousness and have offered it in return. If you have lived a decent number of years, you have probably been in a relationship or two that didn\u2019t work out for a variety of reasons, but you still know that person is remarkable and you want them to thrive in life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why I love the Jason and Carly friendship, the Anna and Valentin friendship, the Liz and Lucky friendship &#8212; it\u2019s a beautiful testament of the way they value one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-new-kids-on-the-block\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-5\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">New Kids On The Block<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Readers, is it just me, or are you getting a little dizzy over the introduction of so many new characters?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the past few months, we have added Det. Joe Fitzpatrick, Serena Baldwin, new Scout, Tristan Roberts (ex-WSB and new resident Doctor) Hudson from JJE (or is he?) Agent Baines (in place of our beloved Jack) Dr. Nichols, (Anna\u2019s new shrink) and now I hear we have one more new character joining shortly, a new lawyer who will work for Miller and Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-some-familiar-faces\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Some Familiar Faces<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for me, I\u2019d rather have Scotty Baldwin and Diane Miller back, and I\u2019d rather have kept Jack Brennan. I like having a new infusion of characters sometimes, but when we lose fan favorites and then get eight new characters, I always wonder why. But maybe there are reasons I don\u2019t understand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of the new batch, I like Serena, but not with Michael. I am not crazy about the writers aging Scout, but I really enjoyed the scene with Drew helping Scout with her homework and was momentarily hopeful he might become a better man again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We know Hudson isn\u2019t who he seems, so I will reserve my judgment until the reveal. Tristan Roberts seems promising as a love match for Britt. I was already a Jonathan Bennett fan from Hallmark &#8212; and I like his vibe with Lucas. Agent Baines seems like a \u201cBy the book\u201d kind of guy, but at present we don\u2019t know if he\u2019s a good guy or another Cullum. However, if any or all of them disappeared tomorrow, I would shed no tears. I am not emotionally invested in them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-one-of-the-good-ones\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">One of the Good Ones<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Readers, do you ever look up one day and say, \u201cWow, I have not fully appreciated how much I love this character?\u201d For me, that character right now is Dante. I have always enjoyed Dominic Zamprogna\u2019s work, but lately, Dante is one of my favorites. When he was being mean to Gio, not so much, but lately I like every scene he is in. Dante has been the voice of reason and harmony lately and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate his work. I am still rooting for him and Liz to date and for Ric to go back to Alexis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The catalyst for that may happen sooner than later, because when Molly saw Liz posing Dante on the yoga mat during Friday, September 18th, episode, I get the feeling that Molly will make a beeline to Ric and tell him there is trouble in paradise. However, I am torn, because I have been wanting Liz and Jason to have a real go at it for all these years, but perhaps it\u2019s been too long and too many burned bridges for that to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-sweet-sweethearts\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sweet Sweethearts<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve also enjoyed scenes with Molly and Cody. It\u2019s nice to have one sweet couple who are in love and supportive of each other with no drama every now and then. Kristen Vaganos and Josh Bell are adorable together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-wild-child-drama\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-6\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">Wild Child Drama<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And today, I enjoyed the Lulu and Valentin scenes. I think there is potential for the two of them to become good co-parents to their wild child Charlotte. That is if Charlotte doesn\u2019t end up in jail for her latest bad decision.&nbsp;&nbsp;When Valentin asked if Lulu thought Danny was a bad influence on Charlotte, Lulu rightly suggested that maybe Charlotte was the bad influence on Danny. I liked the scenes where Danny tried to reason with Charlotte and tell her that her plan could hurt her worse than it did Drew. She didn\u2019t listen, but he tried. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since next week\u2019s previews show Danny with Cody in the stables, who is at Drew\u2019s car door that Charlotte is telling to go away? Scout? If so, why would Scout be entering the driver\u2019s side? Willow? If so, I doubt Charlotte would be speaking to Willow like that. It will be interesting to see what happens come Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-bad-scandal\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bad Scandal<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m not thrilled that <em>General Hospital&#8217;s<\/em> writers have written a plot where a teenage girl is trying to entrap an older man. I am sure that may happen sometimes, but far more often, the older man is preying on the younger woman. I don\u2019t want them to write Charlotte as an evil skank. Sure, she wants to help Danny see Scout, but this isn\u2019t the way. I predict Lulu rescinds her deal with Valentin and goes to court to get Charlotte back and locks Charlotte in the attic if she sees semi-nude photos of Charlotte in Drew\u2019s car. Who bought Charlotte the skimpy lingerie, anyway?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-heartbreak-bar\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-7\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">Heartbreak Bar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jason informed Carly that he and Britt broke up. She said she was sorry and Jason countered with \u201cYou don\u2019t even like her.\u201d Carly said, \u201cI don\u2019t like her, but I know you loved her.\u201d She knows Jason is broken hearted. To be honest, that chemistry the Jason and Britt had prior to Steve Burton\u2019s extended leave didn\u2019t return when he came back. They had a very strong \u201cpals\u201d vibe, but I didn\u2019t see the passion that I saw when they first got together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe Steve is so in love with his new wife that he can\u2019t even fake being hot for someone else. And frankly, I think his new wife is adorable and I love her cooking videos, so I get it. I wonder what the next chapter will bring to Jason since his mob days are behind him. I hope the writers actually have a plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-trouble-with-ava\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-8\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">The Trouble With Ava<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now I need to discuss Ava. I am such a fan of Maura West! Any scene she is in is better because she is there. As I mentioned earlier, Ava gladly let Nina be arrested rather than Ava taking the fall. But, when Ava burst into Drew\u2019s house demanding answers, Ava genuinely looked shocked when Drew told her everything he had endured at the hands of Willow and Nina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 id=\"h-an-inconvenient-truth\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Inconvenient Truth<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drew told Ava about Nina pushing him in his wheelchair into the lake.&nbsp;Ava said, \u201cAnd then what? The magical healing powers of the Quartermaine lake made you not be paralyzed anymore?\u201d And he told her&nbsp;that Willow and Nina had been drugging him for months, and that he had never had a stroke. Ava looked stunned. She suddenly realized her BFF had been keeping a lot of secrets from her. So, what will Ava do next? Will she do anything to help Nina, or will she be disgusted by her and fully commit to Team Drew? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t hate me for saying this, but I can see Ava and Drew hooking up. They do have some scheming villain chemistry in their scenes together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ava was skeptical of Drew\u2019s story. He reminded her of what Nina had done to her in the past. Drew asked Ava if she doesn\u2019t believe Nina is capable of trying to kill him. Ava pointed out, \u201cDrew, anyone who has ever met you is capable of trying to kill you.\u201d Ha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-will-happen-tomorrow-dear-readers\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-9\" style=\"background-color:#aa4411\">What Will Happen Tomorrow, Dear Readers? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Will Jason\u2019s broken heart lead him back to Liz? Will Outback dig up Jack in the Quartermaine\u2019s nature preserve? Can Chase conquer his low sperm count and impregnate Willow before he finds out she\u2019s a criminal? Will Hudson claim Phoebe as his own when BLQ and Chase file for divorce? Will BLQ get her stocks back from Lucy, and if she doesn\u2019t will Tracy make it her mission to destroy Lucy? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is Justine going to cave and go to Sonny\u2019s island to stare at his dimples by the sea &#8212; as many, many women have done before? And who will post that \u201cone wrong picture\u201d that will destroy Justine&#8217;s career? Will Jordan persuade Brook Lynn to use the Quartermaine influence to get Curtis\u2019 sentence reduced? Or will Jordan ask for the magic scar removal surgery instead and let Curtis rot in jail?
