Friday’s General Hospital promises big moves, surprising revelations, and emotional reckonings. Curtis makes a major power play, Alexis grapples with her emotions, and Trina takes a step forward in her healing journey. Here’s a closer look at what’s coming up in Port Charles.
Curtis Takes the Throne at Aurora Media
Curtis (Donnell Turner) isn’t here to play games. After working tirelessly at Aurora Media, he had his eyes set on the CEO position. But Drew (Cameron Mathison), fresh off his congressional campaign win, decided to sideline Curtis and hand the reins to Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell).
Curtis wasn’t about to let that slide. Teaming up with Michael, he orchestrated Drew’s exit, proving that strategy—and a little corporate ruthlessness—can pay off. Now, Curtis is set to announce his new title as the sole CEO of Aurora Media. Even better, he’s secured the gig for the next five years with no room for reversals. It’s Curtis’s time to shine, and he’s not looking back.
Ric Gets a Lifeline
Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) is in dire need of a career reboot. While he recently helped Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) navigate the fallout from the digitalis killer drama at GH, his finances are far from stable—especially after Ava’s (Maura West) bounced payment.
Now, Ric gets a surprising job offer. Could it be from Curtis at Aurora Media? Or will Ric’s shady past tempt him into something more criminal than corporate? Either way, this opportunity could mark a turning point for him.
Alexis Faces the Past While Supporting Her Family
Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is in a delicate emotional state. Still grieving for her daughter Sam (formerly played by Kelly Monaco), she’s pouring her energy into her family. Her focus has shifted to Molly (Kristen Vaganos), who is now separated from TJ (Tajh Bellow) and staying with Alexis, and Kristina (Kate Mansi), who’s grappling with unresolved anger over the baby she carried.
But Alexis may need to swallow her pride for a greater good. Could this involve reconciling with someone she’s clashed with, or is it an act of humility to help Kristina heal?
Trina’s Promise to Laura
Trina (Tabyana Ali) is slowly finding her footing again after nearly a year of mourning the loss of her boyfriend, Spencer Cassadine (formerly Nicholas Alexander Chavez). Since Spencer’s tragic fall into the Seine River, Trina has focused on rebuilding her life—returning to school, reconnecting with her love for art history, and even exploring a potential friendship with Kai (Jens Austin Astrup).
Now, Trina makes a heartfelt promise to Laura (Genie Francis). Does she vow to honor Spencer’s memory while also moving forward with her life? Whatever the case, this promise could mark a turning point in her emotional recovery.
Carly Updates Sonny on Family Drama
Carly (Laura Wright) has a lot to catch Sonny (Maurice Benard) up on, and it’s safe to say he’s been out of the loop. With all the chaos surrounding Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) cheating on Michael with Drew, Sonny’s reaction is anyone’s guess.
Will Sonny’s protective instincts kick in, prompting him to take matters into his own hands? And, if so, could Drew be headed for the infamous Pine Barrens—or something equally ominous? Either way, this family update is bound to shake things up.
