Carly Hughes joins GH! …A new face shows up in Port Charles for a very important job.
Amidst all the mob drama on Port Charles, others involved themselves in the latest business scandals around the city. According to General Hospital recaps, a stunned Brooklyn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) announced that Deception was being sued. Apparently, the lawsuit claims that the cosmetics company stole the Deceptor concept.
General Hospital news reports confirm that Port Charles gets a fresh face while Pine Valley Attorney Jackson Montgomery (Walt Willey) gets some stiff competition. According to GH news spoilers, actress Carly Hughes joins GH as Lucy Coe’s Attorney in the case against Deception. It seems that Montgomery will represent the plaintiff. Expect to see both Hughes and Willey beginning the week of August 28th.
Portia lies to Trina! …Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) has gone from a caring and protective mother, to a controlling, manipulative, liar, even to her precious daughter. Trina and Portia’s relationship has seen better days, but they’ve yet to see the worst!
According to recent GH spoilers and rumors Portia’s actions eventually come back to bite her. Odds are, she pushes Trina away to the point of no return. Potentially, they could become estranged for the foreseeable future. It’s no surprise that Portia is sticking with her plan to drive Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) apart. However, it’s the way she’s going about it that comes as a surprise.
Until these latest scenes between Portia and Spencer at Portia’s home, she’s mainly manipulated Esme. Now, Portia’s taken things to an unrealistic level. According to GH recaps, Portia told Spencer his help wasn’t necessary and dismissed him from her home. Then, Trina walks down and asks where he sent. That’s when Portia told her daughter that Spencer took off, brushing it off as one of his character flaws.
General Hospital spoilers reveal, Portia lies to Trina in the worst way. Call me crazy but, does anyone else find this strange? Especially in this day and age when text messaging is prevalent. Anyone whose man just up and left would text that man ASAP, and ask, “why’d you dip?” Portia would never get away with this lie in real life because technology doesn’t allow for this level of stupidity. Honestly, there’s no way in Hell that his abrupt exit wouldn’t be addressed at some point. Thus, outing Portia. Of course, this is Port Charles. The fictional NY city is located in Soap Opera Land, where they pop up unannounced on your doorstep to “talk,” because smartphones and texting doesn’t exist.
Tracy sends Ned to Ferncliff?! It’s difficult to tell if Ned Ashton Quartermaine (Wally Kurth) genuinely believes he’s his 1990s rockstar persona, Eddie Maine, or if it’s a dirty scheme. As much a possibility it is for this to be all a lie, it’s hard to believe it. Ned had Nina right where he wanted her, and now dropped it cold turkey. Either he has something up his sleeve, or his sleeve rice memory is genuine.
General Hospital recaps recall Ned had discovered that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) was the one who turned Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) into the SEC. And just as he was about to spill the tea, he himself took a nasty spill. As a result, Ned’s memory now only fixated on the 1990s when he was a rockstar. Now, Eddie Maine navigates Ned’s life and Nina gets off scott free.
Meanwhile, his wife Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero), daughter Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), his son, little Leo (Easton Rocket), and mother Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot), deal with the fallout. According to GH spoilers and previews Tracy has had enough. She tells Olivia that it’s time to have Ned committed. If Tracy sends Ned to Ferncliff, will Sasha gain an ally? Or will Olivia put a stop to the whole thing?
Cody needs Brook Lynn’s help! But will she understand where he’s coming from and offer her assistance? Or, will she shut Chase down and keep him out of Sasha’s (Sofia Mattsson) Ferncliff room?
Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) is a fighter. She’s a true believer in standing up for what’s right and fighting for the ones who can’t fight for themselves. Ultimately, she’s all for protecting others, especially those who can’t protect themselves.
So, why is she so reluctant to fight for Sasha? GH recaps recall Brook Lynn’s take on the whole Sasha situation. Just because it’s clear to Cody Bell (Josh Kelly), Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco), and even Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms), some still doubt Sasha’s progress. So far, Brook Lynn doesn’t quite see the holes in the story. She’s currently stuck in the narrative Gladys portrays. Cody needs Brook Lynn’s help! But will she disregard his reasons for concern?
Moreover, GH spoilers and rumors tease that Cody and Brook Lynn begin to spend an increasing amount of time together. Maybe Brook Lynn starts to see thins Cody’s way, and they’ll work together on a plan to help Sasha. Then, suspicions arise as Chase wonders why his girl is spending so much time with Cody inside the Quartermaine mansion. Is Chase about to have another reason not to trust BLQ?
…There is no doubt that Sasha is of sound mind. Obviously, Gladys wants everyone to fall for the whole, “Sasha’s insane bit,” even at the cost of her daughter-in-law’s life. The thing is, Gladys and Dr. Montague may believe that they are getting away with this, but more are onto them than they think.
General Hospital spoilers and previews indicate that the lights begins to shine even brighter through the many holes in Gladys’s plan. Essentially, Sasha’s mother-in-law didn’t think things all the way through when she conspired to deceive Sasha. Gladys didn’t consider that Sasha wasn’t the only one she had to convince. Instead, she let her ego think no one will be the wiser.
Over the years, Sasha has formed lasting friendships with women who truly care for her well-being. Thankfully, their sincerity shines through when they feel something isn’t right. Maxie (Kirsten Storms) already said what’s on her mind, but it looks like it’ll take more than one voice. According to GH spoilers, Maxie isn’t the only one to come forward and confront Greedy Gladys. In fact, Sam and even Sasha herself know that something’s missing. Sasha and Sam ask questions about how such a drastic misstep could come out of nowhere. They’re into Gladys, and it’s only a matter of time before Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) is onto her too.
Wally Kurth reveals truth behind Ned’s MetroCourt pool plunge! It’s a strange time for a certain Port Charles family. Surely, a time reminiscent of 90s vibes and good times. Well, not everyone reflects on those times as good, but Eddie Maine sure does.
Speaking of Eddie Maine, General Hospital recaps revisit how the 1990s rock legend recently re-emerged. In an unfortunate accident, Ned took a spill at the MetroCourt pool, leaving his memory severely impaired. Allegedly, he no longer remembers his true identity. Only the portion of his life when he was a musician. Back in the 90s, Ned Ashton expressed himself as the edgy, Eddie Maine, becoming a huge rock star. Decades later, Eddie is back and ready to rock!
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal the truth behind Ned’s fall. Ever since the he woke up from the fall, Ned hasn’t been himself. He’s been living as an alter ego since June, rehashing her rockstar persona. However, GH fans raise questions. Apparently, Ned only remembers himself as Eddie. This turn of events leaves fans frustrated, since hope of finally bailing Nina is on the back burner again.
According to GH previews, Ned had the dirt on Nina. He was headed to spill the tea to Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) when Ned’s MetroCourt pool plunge changed everything. When it comes to the fall, GH fans don’t know what to believe. Did the pool plunge cost Ned his family and become Nina’s get-out-of-jail-free card? Or is he faking? Wally Kurth has the answers.
According to GH news and spoilers, Wally revealed the truth behind Ned’s MetroCourt pool plunge. He admitted that Hollywood stunt double Anthony Molinari stepped in for the actual fall. Reportedly, Molinari has worked as a stunt double Hollywood big timers, George Clooney, Mark Ruffalo, and Matt Damon.
“He did it all in one take,” Kurth revealed. “He was really good. I did the towel trip and I did a forward fall onto a mat. And then when Anthony came out, he actually said the line, the same line that I had just said, and then he did the fall onto the deck and rolling into the pool, and then he laid there for a while, and then when you saw it pick up, it was me, obviously, laying in the water when they turned me over.
“It was really fun to get in the water with a suit on!” he added. “It was a nice, warm water. And I don’t get to do very many stunts, so I loved it! I loved having to take a fall onto a mat and all that stuff.”
Now that we know the behind-the-scenes, details of Ned’s fall, what we really want to know is if he’s faking amnesia or if he’s truly Eddie, Maine?
…Although new to Port Charles, Cody Bell is all too familiar with his childhood bestie’s mom. In fact, Cody and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) go way back. Those two troublemakers take it back to Bensonhurst, where they met and became childhood friends. But back then, Olivia was Mama Falconeri, not Mama Q., as Cody’s named her today.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Olivia continues worry as she watches Leo struggle with the circumstances. Her heart breaks for her son as he tries to make sense of why Eddie looks like his bad, but insists that he isn’t. Thankfully, Cody has been a great friend to Leo. The time spent together in the stables helped develop the bond bet Erb them. Now, Cody and Leo have each other’s backs. That’s why Cody’s offer was an easy decision on Cody’s part.
GH recaps recall that Olivia and a Cody already made arrangements for Cody to move into the main house. As a result, Cody and Olivia move closer as she leans on him for support. GH rumors hint that Olivia falls for Cody when he steps up for her and Leo. Is Ned wasting precious time as he rejects his wife over and over? Will he find Olivia and Cody when it’s too late?
Leo turns Eddie into Ned again!?!? GH Shocker! Ned ends Eddie Maine charade?! …Say what you will about Mama Q., aka, Olivia Falconeri Quartermaine (Lisa LoCicero), but she’s passionate about her family! Especially her children. Past and present, Olivia gets a bad rap for her emotional reactions to life’s hiccups. But no one worries more than an Italian mother. Ok, maybe an Italian mother from Bensonhurst! Undoubtedly, family comes first and she’ll do anything to protect her loved ones.
Currently, Olivia is losing her mind over Ned Ashton’s (Wally Kurth) run-in with 90s nostalgia. While the one who suffers most is Ned’s adoptive son, Leo (Easton Rocket Sweda). According to GH history, Ned legally adopted Leo after his biological father, Julian Jerome (William deVry) died. Unfortunately, mob violence took Leo’s father’s life when he was just a baby. However unfortunate, Leo was too young to remember losing his father. Sadly, that’s not the case this time. Poor Leo is old enough now to be emotionally impacted by this loss. Although Ned is there in the flesh, Eddie Maine isn’t exactly father material.
According to General Hospital spoilers, parenting just got a lot more difficult for Olivia. Not only does she suddenly have the responsibility of a single mom, she has to watch her son grieve for a man who is right there. Further, she does this while grieving for Ned herself! Ned’s identity crisis affects the entire family, especially their son Leo. Understandably, he’s acting out because he’s struggling with Eddie Maine replacing his father.
Meanwhile, GH spoilers and rumors tease that Olivia and Ned’s son might be the key to unlocking Ned’s emergence. If GH rumors are true, and Ned is truly faking, GH fans speculate Leo does a number on Eddie Maine. How can anyone knowingly hurt that sweet child? Exactly, they can’t. Or they’d have to be a total psychopath, and Ned is not.
Recent GH spoilers and rumors tease that Eddie won’t be pulling on his guitar strings when Leo pulls on Ned’s heart strings.
When thinking of warm and fuzzy, Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) isn’t the name that pops to mind as the human representation. In naturally warm hearted peoples, warm and fuzzy feelings generally exude from the particular individual. Let’s just say that when anyone brushes by Tracy, they probably aren’t feeling a welcoming aura.
Is it even possible for someone to really warm up to Granny Q. and visa versa? I mean, technically, yes. It’s apparent that Tracy genuinely cares for her family members. But that doesn’t mean she won’t sell them out, turn them in, or cut them loose for her own benefit. Evidently, when bumping into Tracy Quartermaine, odds are you’ll suffer some bumps and bruises. That woman isn’t a soft landing. That being said, who could be tough enough for Granny Q?!
According to General Hospital spoilers and previews, Gregory Chase (Gregory Harrison) and Tracy have another run-in. While GH spoilers and previews make it look like these two share their typical vibe, recent GH rumors tease things are different this time.
Don’t get too excited. Tracy and Gregory haven’t said any vows or picked out his and hers hand towels. However, GH spoilers suggest that Gregory and Tracy make nice. According to GH recaps, Papa Chase found out about Tracy’s involvement in Chase’s (Josh Swickard) reinstatement with the PCPD. Ada result, Gregory makes it a point to confront Tracy about what she’s done. At first, they go about their usually dynamic. GH previews show that Gregory tells Tracy to shut up before thanking her. Don’t miss a moment of the Port Charles drama, Monday-Friday at 2PM Eastern!
What happens at the Quartermaine mansion stables that sends Cody running for the main house? Although Cody carries Leo to comfort, he could be seen as the problem in this situation. As a result, Cody’s in the Quartermaine hot seat.
According to recent General Hospital spoilers, Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) and little Leo (Easton Rocket Sweda) have a mishap in the stables. Apparently, GH rumors suggest that Leo was acting out and didn’t want to listen to Cody. Then, he winds up getting hurt, and Cody then carries him to comfort. Meanwhile, over at the main house, Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero), Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton), and the rest of the Qs go about their business. GH rumors claim that Cody’s in the Quartermaine hot seat after he carries Leo to Olivia and Brook Lynn. Will they see that he was just trying to help? After all, Leo’s family situation plays a major role in what goes down in the stables.
Acting out is expected behavior as Leo struggles with the sudden and devastating life change. Recently, his family has and continues to go through an ordeal. In reality, the situation is difficult enough for adults to process, let alone a child. The situation with his father, Ned Ashton Quartermaine (Wally Kurth) is weighing on the little guy and he doesn’t know how to convey his feelings. Poor Leo doesn’t want Eddie Maine, he wants his father.
