General Hospital Recap May 15

Ric tricked Alexis into meeting with her to plan a book launch party for Molly. While planning, Alexis admitted Sonny came to her, but she actually defended Ric. She wanted to know if it would be a problem if Sonny was at the party.

Later, Ric surprised Elizabeth with the art he’d bought through Ava. And Alexis met with Chase and Brook Lynn to give her all the info they could think of about Delilah to search for her family.

Cullum Questions Carly

Carly came home and told Valentin about her conversation with Nina. They were interrupted by the doorbell when Cullum dropped by. Valentin hid, and Carly opened the door, telling Cullum she wasn’t interested in talking to him. “Not even if it benefits your friend, Jason Morgan?” he asked.

Cullum said that he knew Jason didn’t shoot him, so she let him in. He wanted to know who Jason would be willing to go to prison to protect, but as he was talking, he saw a photo of Danny and Jason on the mantle. Cullum made a quick exit when Carly said she didn’t know anything and showed him the door.

Valentin returned downstairs, gun in hand, in case Cullum tried to hurt her. Carly told him it didn’t matter who Jason was covering for, as he did it for a reason. Valentin said it was surprising that Cullum hadn’t figured out that Josslyn was WSB yet, and it might be safer for her to stay wherever Brennan had her stashed.

Carly couldn’t believe it, and was mad at the thought. Valentin told her the best thing she could do right now was make up an excuse of where Josslyn could be to cover for her and keep Cullum away.

Cassius Tells All To Josslyn

Cassius brought Josslyn some food and books, but she wasn’t thrilled. She laid into him about who he was and said he was more like his father than he thought. Cassius told her that wasn’t true, and sat today to tell her that he actually deceived himself, pretending to be Nathan.

Cassius opened up about what it was like to be Nathan, how everyone liked him, and sometimes he forgot that it wasn’t him that people adored so much. He said that his feelings for Lulu were genuine, but she ended things.

Cassius shared he was surprised and grateful that he was getting to know Nathan and who he was in a way he never would have. Josslyn wondered if he felt the way that he did; then it was possible he could be special too. “How special could I be if I still work for my father’s partners?” he replied.

Josslyn Offers An Out

When Josslyn asked about it, Cassius told her working for Sidwell and Cullum was the only way to keep his sister alive. Josslyn told him when Britt was done the project, she and him were dead and it would hurt the feelings of all the people he’d bonded with as Nathan. 

Cassius snapped that he knew that, and the thought that James would be hurt killed him. Josslyn said he could prevent it by letting her go, and she said she’d walk him into Brennan’s office herself. Cassius told her that Brennan was in a coma but didn’t know the details.

Josslyn said they could go to Dante then, work together, and bring down Cullum. She told Cassius that if he did that, he could show everyone he was just as good as Nathan and eventually expose his real identity, making it a softer blow. “Maybe you can keep all the things about Nathan’s life that you ‘ve fallen in love with,” she suggested. “And when the dust settles, they’ll see you for the first time.” 

Elizabeth Helps Dante

Elizabeth came by the police station, and Dante told her about his conversation with Rocco. He told her about the damage he’d done to their relationship, and now Rocco didn’t trust him and was relying on Nathan instead. 

Elizabeth advised not to make it all about proving to Rocco that Britt’s a villain; he should just be there for him to come to. Dante lamented that the shooting robbed Rocco of his innocence. Elizabeth shared her experience and advised that people who made her feel safe and told her that she would see the good in the world one day was what made all the difference.

An officer brought Dante all the evidence they had from the shooting. Dante told Elizabeth that destroying evidence was something he never thought he’d do, but she told him he had to save Rocco. She reminded him she did the same at the hospital, removing any trace of him being there, and that she gave him Cullum’s blood.

After Elizabeth left, Cullum came in and demanded all of the evidence from his shooting, but Dante told him they didn’t have it anymore.

Jordan Worries About Curtis’ Obsession

Curtis prepped to go to dinner with some clients, but offered to move it to lunch if Jordan wanted him to stay home. She was fine with it, and insisted he go, but before leaving, Curtis was obsessively working on finding evidence to prove Isaiah was the other driver.

Curtis said that he didn’t want Curtis in his baby’s or Trina’s lives, and that if he couldn’t find the proof, then he would serve justice with his own hands instead of the system. After Curtis left, Justine came over and told Jordan there wasn’t a case against Isaiah. Jordan told her she worried how far Curtis would go to prove that there was.

Curtis Punches Isaiah

Meanwhile, Isaiah and Portia went out to dinner, and she noted they wouldn’t have many opportunities to do so when the baby came. Portia told him how supportive he’d been and how much she loved him.

Curtis spotted them and charged up, yelling for Isaiah to get away from his child when he saw him with his hand on Portia’s baby bump. Portia asked Curtis not to make a scene but he did anyway, bellowing accusations at Isaiah and telling him to prove his innocence by giving a paint sample of his vehicle.

Isaiah told him he’d gotten a paint job, and asked if he really thought that he could do something like a hit and run. Portia wanted to leave, but Curtis carried on until Isaiah told him it was obvious he was trying to break them up.”But I’m not going anywhere, I’m going to be a better father to this child than you could ever be!” Isaiah said. Curtis hauled off and punched him in the face, knocking him to the ground.
